I was listening to Sporting News Radio this morning and the host was playing the CBS March Madness theme song you hear at every commercial break during the tournament.  He was making up words to it and I was lol'ing my briefs in the car.  Even the last part where he sang, Coach K is gay and Duke really sucks.  Funny stuff.

Now that is pretty funny.

Speaking of CBS sports nothing irritates me more when they have Mike Gminski on as the color commentator for any Duke/ Carolina match-up; he's about as unbiased as the shiny-suited, slicked-back-hair Syracuse grads on ESPN.

Do you realize the effort it takes to keep my post count so low?

I have personally emailed CBS and asked them to replace the G-man.  I suggested Jay Bilas instead.

Indeed, that is kind-of a big deal in my native state.  Right up there with Tobacco Road College Basketball and vinegar-based BBQ sauces in personal priorities...and rivalries amongst North Carolinians.

I understand the North Carolina/Nascar connection.  Never understood the Brad Doherty hook up.  Hey, let's get a black, 6'9" former basketball player to do color commentating for our Nascar productions.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Nascar is trying to appeal to a more diverse crowd.


Yes, I said it.

It's what I do.  Don't hate.

What kind of slaw, red, mustard, mayo, vinegar based?  These are important details before I start to hate on someone putting slaw on a BBQ sammy.   Have you ever been to "The Pit" in Raleigh.  Ed Mitchells place, he is a legend. 

EDIT:  I posted a slaw recipe for you and snaggie.

Vinegar-based, of course.  But some places I like use a Mustard-vinegar base.  I prefer a slaw that is not sweet.

I hate to say it but I can't recall visiting The Pit before unfortunately.

That slaw recipe sounds great!  Appreciate the recommendation.

Yeah, sweet slaw is an abomination, as is sugar in cornbread.  I like most other slaws though, I just can't put vinegar slaw on a bbq sammy.  I have actually tired a tomoato slaw that was really good.  I just don't have the recipe and the guy that made it serves it at his restaurant and will not give it up.

Don't know how I'd compare IF....I had the intraweb skillz to properly submit a bracket, but I'm still doing pretty good.  Better than most years for me.  This is a great tourney, by the way.  Tons of down to the wire games. Meat Chicken came back and had my Dukies on the ropes.  They threw a 1-3-1 at Duke and rattled the hell out of them.  Several crappy possessions down the stretch and they lucked out on not going to overtime.

VCU is coming out of nowhere.  They freakin' crushed Purrdew.  And did anyone see the back and forth between Pitino and Sir Charles?  Barkely has been saying the Big East is overrated..clap, clap, clap ,clap, clap....overrated...and Pitino's feathers got ruffled

Was wondering if tarheel was as nervous as I the last 5 mins of the unc/wash game? Many chances to put it away. Sloppy rebounding. Unc went to the outside too much. Thankfully it was Washington not Duke or Kansas or it woulda been bad trouble. We'll have to play better outside d to advance past 16.

And on Texas losing.....bwahahahaha....... :haha:
