It was as close to date rape as basketball’s national championship game ever came. North Carolina jumped out to a 24-9 lead over Michigan State in the first half and never looked back. Carolina’s Ty Lawson led all scorers with 21 points and North Carolina cruised to immortality with an 89-72 win. The Tar Heels avenge their own GHB-laced tournament ouster from a year ago at the hands of Kansas. It’s nice to know that the state of Kansas is occasionally good at something.
Now to important business, the winner of St. Andrew’s Pool was tenaciousad_1, who also finished in the 100th percentile of all ESPN brackets. Congratulations to him and thanks to all 1,022 of you that screwed up and didn’t win. Wasn’t that fun? You know, for the first weekend?

Austin 3:16 says he’s gonna kick Roy Williams ass.
That game reminded me of a Miles Davis album. Because it Kind of Blew.
Zing.
That was the premature ejaculation of Championship games. Over in 10 minutes.
That Kansas game was in the semis, right?
Either way, that was a pretty nice way to erase the memory. Wow.
Thankfully, I was drunk.
Memphis was the rapee last year in the championship game. Trust me. I still walk with a limp courtesy of my bookie as a result.
The economy in Michigan is fucked now. Damn Izzo.
what does the winner of the bracket get this year? wasn’t it a mr. skin subscriprion last year?
Oddly enough, last night was the one time the crowd really was chanting “WE WANT ROY! WE WANT ROY!”
The winner of the pool this year gets a years supply of Stay Free Maxipads, because only bitches and faggots cheer for UNC. A fitting conclusion to one of the worst March Madness tournies in recent memory.
Anyone see Tyler Hansborough’s interview after they won? Normally he’s the kind of guy that only conducts interviews if he has his “Sports Clichés for Dummies” in his hand. Well he came out of his shell last night:
Direct from ESPN:
“You can say what you want. I’m a national champion,” he said, his head pumping to add to his newly displayed attitude. “How many of you can say you’re a national champion? I can. That’s right. I can. My critics can’t.”
Well I can’t say I’ve won a national title Tyler but I can say you’re an overhyped lump of shit that peaked two years ago and your NBA career will closely resemble that of Rafael Araujo, Darko Milicic or at best Christian Laettner. At least those guys can say they we’re top 10 picks. Enjoy watching Blake Griffin become a star as you drift off into obscurity.
i thought canadians were polite.
You want to talk some more about this, Biggie? Lie down on the couch and let the emotions flow. This is a safe space.
