My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

Cricket. Must be. Texas is known as a 'hotbed' of the sport.
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Both Wisconsin teams to at least the sweet sixteen again. Madison will at least progress past the sweet sixteen, but I'm not sure after that.

Basketball stinks period. Fun to play, terrible to watch. Worse than hockey even.

Been to:
Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

But seriously, it does suck. But not as bad as American Football. That used to be a real sport; now it's just a bunch of funny-looking prima donnas prancing around in tights on astro-turf in an enclosed environment. No rain, no ground, no nothing.
Re: March Madness
Wisconsin has a cure for this problem too. The last small-town, real-turf, outdoors, and publicly-owned team: The Green Bay Packers.
God, we're so awesome it's scary.

Re: March Madness
I've been watching it all day. My favorite time of the year!! My team's in a 'rebuilding' year (started four true freshmen and a sophomore most of the year), so they didn't make the tourney though.
Re: March Madness
I don't hate basketball, but I'm not a fan, mainly because my central Romanian genes prevent me from actually being any good at the sport.

Re: March Madness
Go Iowa! Actually they got upset in the first round of the tourney by Northwestern St. Dang, that ruined my whole spring break.

Re: March Madness
GM beat North Carolina. HAHAHA.
Re: March Madness
Right now I need a bandwagon smiley. D'oh. Anyway, I'm very happy with the little guys (well, so Paul Miller and O'Bryant aren't so little) but I'm thrilled to see three mid-majors make it so far. To be sure the Shockers haven't really beaten anyone as good as Bradley and GM, but still... I'm happy. I can't wait for either GM or (I hope) WSU to knock off UConn.
What a fun weekend! Of course, my bracket is in shambles, but the, so is everyone else's.

Gah! How did my lovely Big Ten get reduced to rubbish??
Re: March Madness
They are still in. They play UCLA on Thursday at 10:00 pm est. I hope they win their next two because I have them in my final four.
Re: March Madness
gonzaga vs villanova in the final with gonzaga winning, makes nokhor richer.
gonzaga advancing further than uconn makes nokhor a winner of a sidebet.
nokhor cares nothing for the team or watching the sport but the betting at work got to him.
and kanamori, we had three wisconsin teams in the tourney, not two.
why is nokhor talking about himself in the third person?
indeed
Re: March Madness
Woot! SEC! SEC! SEC!
Might just be an all-SEC final too - with LSU and Florida meeting in the last game. It also means all other SEC schools get more money since they do this revenue-sharing thing, so I'm happy!
