WEEKEND SCRAMBLE: Unforgettable Pat Summitt-Bob Huggins fantasies and other things you wish we’d never made you think about.


None of your damned business.

Do not mess with the woman who makes the Volunteer nation endure powder blue striping — and like it.
Pat Summitt does not want to answer questions about the UConn coach. Her relationship with the UConn coach is what it is. Stop asking Evil Female Bear Bryant questions, silly ESPN reporters, or you will get mention of your verbal beatdown in a Tennessean story that can be viewed here.

More importantly, you prompt this woman’s awful talkback response that we will never ever be able to wash from our minds: (more…)



DAYS OF THE ROUNDBALL: Some far too conclusive thoughts from an unconcluded round.


Sorry Belmont basketball kids, only placating failure awaits you.

Things we thought we would never hear.
While watching Bruce Pearl toy with American like a cat chewing with a rat with broken hips , we heard the following:

Vandy’s a really tough place to play.

Wait, you mean in sports? Like, not boccie or some crap? Really?

Oh, yeah, that’s right. Vandy does own the state title in men’s basketball right now.

Huh. That explains the flaming borders and stink of brimstone emanating from the Foul Parallelogram of late …

The overrated game.
And by that we mean the game that, on a March day without much madness, was the only thing that came close to being less than sane. Thank you Belmont for playing like you aren’t just used by Vandy to wipe up what they leave behind on the hardwood when they’re done peeing on the rest of the state.

It was a fun scare, though, as Duke’s anxiety always feeds our souls. But ultimately, those fearsome Nashville Bruins realized they are effin’ Belmont and that they were playing Duke, not some NAIA turd sponge that’s been lobbed their way.

Good show, though.


Go Dawgs!

Reality did win.
Sorry, Dick Vitale, but Georgia’s impossible run to the Sweet 16 really was impossible as Xavier took care of business after a brief scare early in the first half.

Take notes Mark Richt: Start petitioning now to play your entire 2008 season in Athens or Atlanta, including the bowl/title game. You’ll have your best shot since the Georgian God is, by default, a Georgia homer.*

Quick hits.

  • Notre Dame AD Benedict XVI’s orders of hustle paid off, killing the hopeful Know-Nothing ticket yet again.
  • We were very disturbed by the overwhelming accuracy of our prediction of brutal victory over Mississippi Valley State. That might have been crime. We’re not sure.
  • Congratulations on making it to the first half, Winthrop, but it might’ve been good if you stuck around for the whole game.
  • We’re still not sure who the hell Davidson is, but we’re glad they won.
  • Dammit, Adam Morrison, must you set new standards for effeminate and ugly for pro basketball players? Go the hell home!

*With occasional assists to Valdosta State and Southern.
