What if we pick you?

So I'm going to Vegas this weekend, any suggestions on bets are welcome.

I know less about college b-ball than I do about the health care bill as it's currently "amended".

The only thing I think I know is to bet on Gonzaga the first two rounds.

2 The only thing I think I know is to bet on Gonzaga the first two rounds.

Go for Gonazaga first two rounds then against them after.

Go for Siena first two rounds. 

My dark horse is Wake Forest though I'm only sticking with that for the first two rounds.

3 I was going to say, "Go against MAAC 10" but I knew to bet for Siena the first two rounds when they make it.

I went to Siena my first year of college (year omitted to protect the innocent per the facebook/HR post) so I follow them.
Their memories of me aren't as fond as my memory of them. The drinking age was 18 so they had kegs everywhere for Disorientation.

My sister knew the admissions people and she wanted to see the new dorms (The Friary had been a... wait for it... a friary before it was a dorm)  so she had them put me in there.
It was not a freshman dorm. It had 2 floors of girls (some freshman) and I was on the top floor with some of the basketball team, the rugby team and the third wing had the lacrosse team.

It was one drunken, drug-ridden floor.
 Saturday and Sunday morning found lots of passed out folks in the hallways. Even monks occasionally hung out with a few of the seniors on the floor, there's nothing like having to walk over a hung-over, snoring, beer smelling Friar Tuck to get to the shower.

One RA dealt pot, the other told you to towel your door if you forgot, I never saw the third.

The dean knew me by name and face my first semester there.
I made two semesters.

When I went back to school (elsewhere) 12 years later, I literally tripled my GPA.

I know jack and shit about college basketball (or any basketball for that reason), but on the extreme off chance I win, I wanna pick ATC.  Not to disrespect her, but because just maybe that means we get a picture of her!

(see how clever I am?)

MikeD, I am second to none in my desire for pics to prove she's a chick, but....

You realize you're courting a stompy boot in an uncomfortable place?

6 That's even BETTER than a picture.

I mean.  That would hurt and I wouldn't like that.

7 "You realize you're courting a stompy boot in an uncomfortable place?"

Well, while I love my fellow morons, I'm not entirely sure I'm willing to take a heel to the junk for you.  Could I amend "facecock" into "photoshopped in with Scarlett Johansen"?

8 I don't like all of this Siena talk. Sure the Boilers had one of their most pathetic games ever against Minnesota, but Purdue is going to win. Why? Fuck you, that's why.

Also, Obama picked Siena to win. You can't make the same picks as Obama can you?

Vegas Baby!

I won't let Obama decide what I do. I decide what I do. Siena is playing tomorrow, I thought I was going to miss their game. Woo-hoo! If Siena wins, you'll know I won baby.

The worst 1/2 hour is the one before you leave for your flight.

 

10 And Siena goes down to the crushing onslaught of Purdue's offense! Take that Obama!
