March Madness Live(ish) Blog

(12:40 pm) Memphis got pantsed at the beginning of the game, but have caught up. Good. They deserve it. Overrated fuckers can't play defense.

I'm worried at Butler. I know it's early and I have them losing next round, but I still want them to beat LSU. No particular reason.

I don't remember who I have in the BYU - A&M game. I think in one bracket it's A&M and another BYU. I don't really care about either team. 

I'll be blogging live until my battery dies as I am on a bus to Syracuse (GO ORANGE! tomorrow). 

(12:45) Goddamn LSU. Butler, what the hell? I believed in you and you are letting me down! We are no longer friends. This would be a lot more fun if I could actually watch it and didn't have to follow CBS' GameCenter (my computer doesn't support video).

(12:47) Memphis is tied with Northridge. HA!

40 minutes left on my battery. Boo.

(12:48) Memphis has 5 fouls already. If they survive this game, it will be wake-up call to the rest of the world that apparently thinks Memphis is amazing. But they are no where near as good as last year. No defense. I should know. I'm a Syracuse fan. They can't play defense this year worth shit.

(12:50) No updates....stupid Internet.

(12:51) Tyreke Evans for Memphis just went out with 2 fouls and 12 minutes left in the first. Northridge is giving them a run for their money. I hope we get a 2-15 upset. I didn't pick it, but it would make me a happy man.

(12:52) And Robert Dozier (Memphis) is now sitting with two fouls and 12 minutes left. Nice. Northidge up 17-16.

(12:54) A&M up 11 on BYU. I still don't care.

(12:55) Under 12 TV Timeout. Memphis is being outrebounded and has 7 team fouls to Northridge's 4. Memphis does have fewer turnovers and more steals. but with two starters on the bench with 2 fouls and Northridge shooting 55% and up by one...well, that doesn't mean all that much just yet, but it gives me hope of a huge upset. Go MATADORS!

(12:57) CBS has finally caught up to the rest of the world. Memphis is up 6, BYU is down 16 and Butler is hanging in there, but not looking so good. This is why no one should ever trust any of my picks for anything. Go Matadors!

(12:59) Memphis is sticking it to me. Under 8 timeout, three starters with two fouls and still up 4. Oh, you pesky Tigers. Northridge does not like sharing the ball. Only 1 assist to Memphis' 8. 

(1:01) For those concerned, my stocks are trending downward today.

(1:02) 27 minutes left on my battery.

(1:04) CBS has stopped loading again. Bollocks!

(1:05) Back again! Battery dropped from 27 minutes to 11 in 3 minutes. Boo. Memphis is still up by 4 and BYU and Butler are still getting hammered. BYU is closing the gap, though, down 8.

(1:07) Butler down 9!!! Keep it rollin! To hell with LSU and their Tiger business. You're Butler!

(1:08) Northridge has already racked up 11 turnovers. No good if you want to beat a team like Memphis.

Battery dead! Gotta go!
