It's all over but the... wait... it's not all over!

Gents, it’s been a great year, but, guess what? Like a pizza buffet, you guys keep stuffing your faces with the Madness Madness, and they keep bringing it! While first place has been decided, THIS THING IS STILL NOT OVER!

It’s a never ending pizza buffet of Madness Madness!

It’s a never ending pizza buffet of Madness Madness!

The race for second place is still very, very much alive! With the unlikely Texas Tech win, Ballz Deep has jumped back into contention and, if they win, they will be the sole owner of second place with 9 points.. And for anyone who know anything about Texas Tech or Lubbock, you just hope something good could happen for them, because that school and that town kind of suck…

Even if the Red Raiders win, they still have to go back to Lubbock.

Even if the Red Raiders win, they still have to go back to Lubbock.

If that isn’t weird enough for you, Rookie of the Year, Cliff Squared, is also in contention. You can guarantee that Cliff won’t be the only one praying for the Cavaliers to win, Seedy Ones will also be cheering for Virginia. If they pull it off and beat the Red Raiders, it’s a logjam of three teams with 8 points. At that point, watch that tiebreaker number.

REMEMBER, it’s the sum of the two final scores of the final game. Under beats over (ex. - if the final score is 120, someone with a tiebreaker number of 119 beats someone else with a tiebreaker number of 121).

Even' Cliff’s cat is praying for a Cavalier win.

Good luck to the three remaining teams and prepare yourselves for the Madness Madness’ One Shining Moment…

When did number "16" become associated with the word "sweet"?

Editor’s Note: SORRY FOR THE DELAY IN POSTING THIS! I WAS IN AUSTIN SCREENING ONE OF FILMS, AND NOW I’M IN Baton Rouge SPEAKING ABOUT ALL THE AWESOME THINGS WE’RE BUILDING IN PRIZEPORT (like Taco Wars, May 3, 5pm-9pm at LSUS)

Wow. Just wow. I never ever, ever thought I would be cheering for a team led by Kevin Briley but, with 7.7 seconds left, there I was, cheering for UCF (Seedy Ones) to beat Duke (Myopics). And then, the clock ticked to the end and the Myopics prevailed. That’s why they call it March Madness… Madness.

JOOSGAJHJZEINRA.20190324235010.jpg

Now, we are 16, and, I guess, it’s sweet. Here are the matchups you need to watch out for…

  • Seedy Ones could continue their march with a Spartans win. Remember, they are have Purdue in the mix. Cliff Squared, the rookie, also looking strong with OSU AND Virginia.

  • Amanda Hugginkiss is leading the pack with 9 points and they almost have 25% of the remaining teams (Brainis, if you’re confused by the percentages, get one LebBlanc to help you. He went to UT and can do that kind of stuff).

  • Vanilla Puff’s Army takes on Ll Cool J in a rap battle that would embarrass any white guy as Kentucky and Houston go at it. LL needs the win… badly.

  • Ballz Deep is looking as good as a team named “Ballz Deep” can look. With Michigan and Texas Tech, they look strong in the Sweet 16. Wait a second, they’re playing each other! Hang on, that means Ballz Deep is playing with themselves. There a masturbation joke in here somewhere…

  • Myopics will also try to start alive in the Madness Madness as Florida St. and Duke take the floor. (By the way, Alan Richards has already corrected my math on my last post, but he failed to see it wasn’t a Sweet 16 update, so there’s that).

Good luck in the Madness Madness!

Welcome to the NCAA Tween Time: The “Terrific 24”

One side of the Sweet Sixteen has taken shape and, while the games kind of sucked, the ways it’s helped and hurt the March Madness Madness field has been profound.

For example, at the beginning, Fook Duck and BackaRot Bois were so full of vim and vigor. Now they’re sad clowns handing out balloon animals for free.

clown-with-unusual-expression-making-balloon-animals-at-jingjai-farmers-market-chiang-mai-thailand-PXJE8A.jpg

But, for all the sadness of those two teams, there was joy with Ballz Deep and Seedy Ones. They started to stalk Amanda Huiginkiss who added another point to their total.

Today, Vanilla’s Puff Army’s Houston goes against Fook Duck’s Ohio St.. Fook needs the win to keep the hope alive. A Houston win will put Vanilla into contention.

Ballz Deep and BackaRot Bois duke it out for who stays in the Madness. Frankly, because both are pains in the ass to spell, I wouldn’t mind both leaving the tourney.

By the way, how good did Amanda Huginkiss’ Auburn and Cliff Squared’s LSU look? They looked Fabio good…

Good News! You’re Not All Losers!

Kevin Briley went to UCLA, which, to me, is kind of like going to the Texas A&M of California schools. That said, he made a brilliant observation and texted it to me. I’ve copied and pasted it below…

Kevin’s text: “Your fact for today. Every team got at least one win yesterday so no zeros this year. We’ll see if there are any one and dones”

Can we give Captain Obvious a hand?

tenor.gif

As we move into the Round of 32 (this is being written at 9:18am on March 23, and Heidi is making fun of me for claiming that “I’m working on March Madness Madness”), here’s the breakdown of where we are…

Amanda Huginkiss is late for an important date.

Amanda Huginkiss is late for an important date.

Amanda Huginkiss is quick out of the gate with 6 points. Quick to start, quick to finish? Time will tell. There’s a “Have you ever seen David Brainis at the beginning of a hurdles race? He looks good out of the block, but, when he makes that first jump…” joke here, but I’m still workshopping it.

BackaRot Bois is right behind with 4 points and four solid teams. How can you bet against a team with Jerry Falwell Jr. as its mascot?

Liberty University’s Mascot.

Liberty University’s Mascot.

So, where does that leave the rest of us? Most of us with #1 and #2 seeds are all sitting in the 2-4 point range. This is interesting because, depending on what happens today, our March Madness Madness result could be a lower scoring, logjam of an affair at the end.

Looking at today’s matchups, here’s what to watch for…

  • If you’re hoping for a slowing of the Amanda Huginkiss train, then tune in to Kansas v. Auburn and cheer for the Jayhawks. Fook Duck has Kansas and needs the win.

  • In an odd twist, my fellow Longhorn (and, for some reason a helluva gumbo maker) Cliff Squared’s LSU Tigers will be facing BackaRot Bois’ Maryland. Cliff Squared needs a win badly to show the rest of you how “elite” the University of Texas really is.

  • Myopics and their Seminoles will try to beat up on Going Back to Kally’s Cinderella Murray St. It’s pretty sad that these bullies will be cheering against the heartwarming story of Murray St., but who am I to judge?

  • Vanilla’s Puff Army, which, if reports are true, are still trying to figure out where Gonzaga is located, need a win today. A victory would not only further quiet the Amanda Huginkiss roar, but it would also show the world that Baylor is a sad school in a sad town called “Waco”.

  • And, in a rookie versus seasoned vet matchup, Fook Duck’s Wofford will take on LL Cool J’s Kentucky Wildcats. Will the student become the master? Tune in…

To reward you for reading this far down, I will leave you with a special treat! Here’s a look at Wofford’s super cute mascot…

STARDATE: March Madness Madness

GENTS OF THE MADNESS MADNESS! Welcome to Madness Island! Smiles everyone, smiles!

151012-news-fantasy-island.jpg

I’d like to start by thanking you all for participating in another year of March Madness Madness! Without you, I’d be sitting on the couch, tequila in hand not having to worry about keeping score or answering angry texts from David Brainis about my math or getting headaches from tapping out ingeniously funny posts like this one.

Let’s begin the new season of March Madness Madness with a new feature I like to call “Rate My Team (Name)”…

Rate My Team Name (Worst to First)

10) Ballz Deep - Really? In 2019? We are just shaking our head.

9) Amanda Huginkiss - While Brainis and friends have landed on a cool name (an obscure “Simpsons” reference), Brainis’ whinyness (“it’s taking too long”, “it’s too expensive”, “you only said ‘going twice’”) has pulled this awesome name down to the 9th worst.

8) Myopics - This was, truly, funny 8 years ago. Ophthalmology jokes and March Madness Madness don’t mix.

7) Seedy Ones - Is it irony or a weird admission?

6) Vanilla’s Puff Army - If Cooper enjoys confusing us, then this name should be #1. I’ve tried Googling this name and only found vanilla cereal and coneflowers.

5) LL Cool J - If you could see the two guys who named themselves after a classic rap superstar, you would understand why this is a lame name.

4) Going Back to Kally - Same reason as above.

3) BackARot Bois - This could be the cleverest thing Cliff Poimbeouf has ever put on paper. Let’s celebrate the effort!

2) Fook Duck - Fuck Duke? Ha! I get it!

1) WINNER! Cliff Squared - Cliff LeBlanc wins for virtue of the fact that he’s going to sponsor Taco Wars (May 3, 5pm-9pm at LSUS)!

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN...

To get everyone pumped and in the right mindset for the March Madness Madness Final Showdown, I give you this...

Now, that we are all amped, ready and have our parachute pants on, let's get down to business. What are the scenarios for tomorrow (Monday) night? And do you have a chance to win anything.

Let's start with Where's Stinson?. This team has no chance, but, if you see this guy, then you've solved the puzzle and his wife thanks you.

Here's Stinson!

Here's Stinson!

Alright, alright! I can already hear Alan Richards' screaming at me to "Do the math! Do the math!" (for those who remember that fateful night). The Myoptics have crawled into position to nab a chance at second place finish. All they need is for Villanova to stay true to form. How excited would Bryan Vekovious be if they nabbed the second place money? This excited...

Vekovious calms celebrates his potential second place finish.

Vekovious calms celebrates his potential second place finish.

Amanda Huginkiss also has a shot at second place. They have eight points and, while supremely cocky at the beginning, have been pretty quiet since they hit 8 points and flamed out. For them to be able to play for second, Villanova has to win. Then, they would be tied with the Myoptics and, if 'Nova wins, LL Cool J.

This is what Amandahuginkiss has been doing for quite a while. Hopefully, they will catch 2nd place.

This is what Amandahuginkiss has been doing for quite a while. Hopefully, they will catch 2nd place.

This brings me to the two teams with shots at 1st place and the BIG MONEY! I enlisted an artist to render a portrait of the two...

Two teams, one prize.

Two teams, one prize.

If follow that analogy a little farther, and we consider Robby as Groot, then we all know that the stoic piece of wood with the name Careless and Reckless could have taken it all with a Loyola win, but alas, Robby's Ramblers lost and stranded him at nine points (and the lead).

But then, out of the wreckage, came the little, scrappy, smartass raccoon we will call LL Cool J. With the win over Loyola, Evensky and Rosen earned their 8th point (and a shot at the lead). IF the Wolverines win, then first and second will have nine points and we will go to the much revered tiebreaker number.

64ea68a13157da11577efacb4ffa79ff--awesome-meme-cool-memes.jpg

I know, I know. There's a lot of math here, and a lot of you were educated in SEC schools, so I'll break it down...

IF the Wolverines win, LL Cool J and Careless and Reckless tie and we got to the tiebreaker numbers for 1st and 2nd.

IF Villanova wins, Careless and Reckless takes first and there is a second place tie between Myoptics, LL Cool J and Amanda Huginkiss.

Get out your hankies, because the end of the Madness Madness is nigh...

I know Sam, it makes me sad too.

Final Four! The Final Battle begins...

Ballz Deep, you had ONE JOB! If your Wildcats had upended Careless and Reckless team's Loyola team, then we'd be talking about your unlikely comeback. Now, because you lost, we won't be talking about you at all. It's like you went from this...

Ballz Deep was the toast of the town.

To this...

After losing, their only conquest is being at the top of the trash heap.

After losing, their only conquest is being at the top of the trash heap.

Now, we have Robby's Careless and Reckless atop the March Madness Madness standings, and only one who can join him in a tie. Who would that be? None other than LL Cool J who snuck up on all of us. While Evensky is certainly the face jock of the team and Rosen seems to be really good at checking between people's legs...

Rosen is a pro at some things.

Rosen is a pro at some things.

...these two were pretty stealthy in their climb to the top. Now, if the Wolverines take it all, they will be tied for first place.

If the Wolverines win one more game, they will have 8 points. Who else has eight points? Amandahuginkiss, Myoptics (if Villanova wins it all) and aforementioned LL Cool J (if Michigan loses in the Finals). This leaves a veritable potential log jam in second. What does a logjam look like in March Madness Madness? Oddly enough, not a whole lot different from a real logjam. In fact, this photo was taken in the Great March Madness Madness Logjam of 2014 (that's Briley, Morehead, Sipes, Desai and Mark Brown in the picture)...

In closing, this is always the time when I'm able to reflect on the positive things the Madness Madness has provided us. Looking at the blessings that have been bestowed on me, I feel incredibly lucky to not have to write about Vertical Smiles OR Happy Dog Lips till next year. That said, what would my March Madness Madness blog be without posting at least one photo of Richard Biernacki and his glorious head of hair?

Hair for miles. Don't be jealous.

Elite Eight is Set! But what does that mean for you?

OH. MY. GOD.

What-just-happened-in-2016.jpg

The Elite Eight has set up a Madness Madness showdown the likes we've never seen.

Let's start by reiterating that Briley will once again not be a part of it, and that Final Four came in last. That would've actually been a lot funnier if I didn't come in second to last (but, I must say, not last).

Briley (on right) takes the news well that he came in last.

Briley (on right) takes the news well that he came in last.

Why has the last two days shaken things up? Well, it's taken the bawdy jackrabbits Amanda Huginkiss and Careless and Reckless to eight points and left them floating precariously in dangerous waters. Much like the lithe woman in "Jaws", it sounded like a good idea to go for a midnight swim but, as we now know, there are a couple of hungry sharks out there and that scary theme music is playing...

In this metaphor, who are the sharks? If you look at 8 points as the possible winning score, then, believe it or not, the Myoptics, LL Cool J, Vertical Smiles and Ballz Deep all have shots at the money.

But what needs to happen? To stop the marches of Amanda Huginkiss and Careless and Reckless, Kansas St. needs to beat Loyola AND Michigan St. needs to beat Florida St.. If that happens, it paves the way for pandamonium!

pandamoniumtoonss1_2944.jpg

Um, sorry. I meant pandemonium...

If Florida St. and Loyola lose, this is what our world will look like.

If Florida St. and Loyola lose, this is what our world will look like.

At this point, I'm sure Where's Stinson and Tres Pendejos have been reading and looking for some love. As the potential spoilers of someone's March Madness Madness dream, one of them all  will be really important IN THE NEXT ROUND. Until then, who wins their battle is as important as who wins between these two fighting giants...

Duke and Kansas go after it!

Duke and Kansas go after it!

Enjoy the Madness!

The March to the Elite Eight, Part One...

What happened? Just when you thought your long Madness Madness nightmare was over, it started again.

After last night, we are all still trying to grasp the situation.

After last night, we are all still trying to grasp the situation.

Remember how cocky and arrogant Biernacki (Happy Dog Lips) was when he "stole" Kentucky? Well, they went DOWN. Do you remember how giddy Vertical Smiles was when they landed Gonzaga? Well, the Zags went down too! With all their confidence, who would've ever guessed these two teams would be hanging by a thread? 

I guess Madness Madness isn't as easy as it looks.

I guess Madness Madness isn't as easy as it looks.

But as bad as it's looking for these two, it's worse for Vanilla Puff's Army. Last night, Mike Cooper experienced what it was like to be the dog in "Old Yeller". One shot and Vanilla Puff was put out of its misery. If Cooper had only done as good a job picking his hat as he did picking his teams, then he'd still be in the hunt.

Mike's Madness Madness mad style.

Mike's Madness Madness mad style.

But it can't be all bad news, can it? Well, when you consider that Careless and Reckless AND Amandahuginkiss got wins, then, yes, it is all bad news (don't worry LL Cool J we see your underrated 6 points with Michigan still marching on). Both teams sit atop the pile with 8 points. Robby still keeps asking me to explain why there was no chance he wouldn't get a point last night (HINT: Dude, you played yourself.). Robby's calls to me were only superseded by the amazing celebration Brainis and his pals had when they secured the win. I was fortunate to catch some of it on video... 

Amandahuginkiss celebrating like a boss.

Amandahuginkiss celebrating like a boss.

With the second batch of eight going tonight, what's it looking like for the rest of you still standing?

Oddly enough, the Myoptics' 'Nova could do themselves a HUGE favor by taking out Happy Dog Lips' Mountaineers. That would put them on track for 8 and, as it stands now, a tie for first or a shot a second.

While Where's Stinson has the odds of winning as a snowball's chance in a really hot convection oven, their Bluedevils hoop it up with Amandahuginkiss' Orangemen. This would, at least, slow Brainis and his braintrust down a bit.

Texas Tech v. Purdue is the other incredibly important game of the night. Vertical Smiles can make everyone happy by getting rid of another Amanda Huginkiss team (man, I'm tired of typing that team name). This would open things up in a weirdly wonderful way. 

Please know, I kid because I love. You are all my Brothers in Madness Madness! More updates soon!

When Sixteen tasted so sweet...

And we're down to 16!

Lets start with a test. Raise you hands if you thought these teams would still be in the tournament at the this point?

Wow! You all knew who was going to be in the Sweet Sixteen?

Wow! You all knew who was going to be in the Sweet Sixteen?

If you raised your hand, YOU WOULD BE A LIAR! Your lying ways aside, I thought this would be a good time to assess the March Madness playing field, and who was still standing and breathing on the aforementioned playing field.

To start, if there was an actual March Madness Madness playing field, then, being honest, Eyes of the Prize (who, me?), Final Four (even with that phantom point from North Caroline) and, though I hate to say it, Tres Bandejos would be sitting very far away in a bar down the street.

The Sweet Sixteen Bar (for losers).

The Sweet Sixteen Bar (for losers).

Now that I've delivered the bad news, it's time to turn towards the good news (for most of you)! The March Madness Madness leaders are Amanda Huginkiss and Careless and Reckless. Both have seven points and are showing us that the guys from "Dumb and Dumber" might be smarter than they looked.

Careless and Reckless and Amandahuginkiss go for a moped ride.

Careless and Reckless and Amandahuginkiss go for a moped ride.

So what's the good news? Even with these two teams leading the pack, it's far from being a done deal. We've never had anyone win March Madness Madness with less than nine points. With that in mind, and looking a the matchups, here's how it breaks down for tonight (THURSDAY'S GAMES)...

LL Cool J and Vanilla Puff's Army duke it out for a loser leave the Madness Madness Cage Match with Vanilla Puff's Aggies taking on Cool J's Wolverines. The real question is if Cooper is Ric Flair or Dusty Rhodes?

Ballz Deep's Kansas St. plays Happy Dog Lips' Wildcats. Both teams need a win. Unfortunately, only one will get that win (this is because there's a rule in NCAA basketball that says only one team can win, I'm serious, look it up).

"Whoa, he's right. Only one team can win. Hashtag mind blown."

"Whoa, he's right. Only one team can win. Hashtag mind blown."

Careless and Reckless' Cinderella story marches on as his Nevada team plays Loyola. This point takes Robby to 8 points and, more importantly, is another essential step for him to show is all that Spring Hill, LA is the next intellectual center of the South.

And finally, the leading Amanda Huginkiss takes on Vertical Smiles as Amanda's Seminoles tussle with the Smile's Zags. The question is if these two will make love or war? I saw the way these two teams were looking at each other and it kind of reminded me of this...

Love in the Madness (Madness).

Love in the Madness (Madness).

Good luck to all and may the Madness be with you!

Madness, Good Old Fashioned Madness

What happened? I went down to SXSW to hear some live music, drank some tequila with some friends, and I came back to a world gone wrong with talking apes and and a world gone awry...

Where do we begin? Ah yes! Remember how cocky and smug Kevin Briley and his team Final Four was when they landed the almighty Virginia Cavaliers? Remember how Kevin put on his shades and did the "make it rain" dance? To jog your memory, I snapped a pic..

Kevin promised that the Virginia would "make it rain."

Kevin promised that the Virginia would "make it rain."

Well, Kevin, you made history by making the worst pick in March Madness Madness history. Congrats!

i-wouldnt-laugh-right-now-if-i-were-you.jpg

I wouldn't laugh at that joke if I were Where's Stinson or Eyes on the Prize (who? me?). These two super geniuses with number two seeds North Carolina (Kevin, if you still want the Tarheels, I bet Ballard will sell them to you cheap!) went down, and we went down hard.

Darkness and sadness aside, where is the Madness Madness sun shining? It's shining on none other than Amandahuginkiss and Careless and Reckless, two teams whose members are showing us that you don't have to actually graduate from a four-year college to lead the March Madness Madness pack.

Careless and Reckless reports back that they are ahead.

Careless and Reckless reports back that they are ahead.

That said, as these two teams are planning to buy a bunch of Yeti cups and squirrel guns, they should slow their roll, because there are a couple of contenders in the wings planning their own spa days and chardonnay parties.

LL Cool J, Vertical Smiles, Vanilla Puff's Army and Happy Dog Lips are all still in the hunt.

And that is where I will leave it. Next post will talk about the vast possibilities of the Madness (Madness). Until then, I leave you with this...
