Baylor Men's Basketball in Big 12 Championship

Lace Dunn and Henry Dugat have been shooting the lights out in OK City at the Big 12 tourney.


After upsetting the #1 seed Kansas, the Bears then beat Texas after losing to them 24 straight times. Thats 2 dozen times. Thats a beer for every loss, until you get to a case. Thats three times the John & Kate plus 8 kids. Thats 1.3 times the Duggar kids.

So the Bears play the Mizzo Tigers tonight for a chance to return to the Big Dance. If Baylor wins tonight, it would be the second consequtive year for them to make it to the Big Dance. So lift your glass, and say a toast to the Green & Gold today. And say a prayer of thanks for Drew letting Lace go berserk in OKC.

The Tigers are the higher seed, but we all know God loves Green & Gold. So here's to hoping God throws the game for us tonight.

Sic'em Bears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Coach Calipari

Kansas v Memphis

In spite of Digger (boogers?) Phelps insistence that Memphis' inability to hit a free throw would remove them from the NCAA tourney. They made it into the final four, and are now in the championship game. While Calipari defended his boys by saying "they would hit the free throws when it mattered."

I thought he was full of crap. But while they have hit a paltry .613 for the season, they hit 20 of 23 against UCLA. Pretty salty.

And while they have a coach whose name sounds more like an appetizer at Macaroni Grill, you have to respect a guy who has gotten what he has out of a team from a second tier conference. Get your scissors ready Memphis.

Sic'em Gentleman Bears!!!

Lace Dunn spoils Sand Pirate "Senior Day"

Well Lace Dunn cooked up 38 points against the Sand Pirates Saturday. He was a man on a mission. And although he failed to meet my prediction for his point scoring, he was a man possessed. In scoring 38, he broke a Baylor freshman single game scoring record, and poised himself for a great NCAA tourney. Its the first time a Baylor player has scored that many points since 1988. Yes, I said 1988.





I had predicted that he would break the career points record in a single season. He did not. Although, technically he broke his own career record. Yeah me!

Look for the Bears to make it to the NCAA tourney on selection day.

This just in: Last night in Highland Park a women's step class turned ugly when the women, who were on a 3 day retreat all had simultaneous gas expulsion. Authorities say the women had all swallowed bubble gum as part of a bonding class in an exercise of overcoming the fear of swallowing. Unfortunately, the lunch that day included generous portions of baked beans and cabbage. The picture below shows what happened.

What can happen when you swallow your gum

In college basketball news:

Bobby Knight resigns at Texas Tech. He told people, "...I'm old, and I'm just tired..." which may be code for another salad bar incident rumored to have taken place at the 50 Yard Line Restuarant. No matter what your feelings are towards Bob, he is a legend in college basketball. He will be missed. Maybe some other A-hole will emerge to provide us with shocking moments.

Gentleman Bears Win a Big One

WOW!! And did I say WOW!!


The mighty Gentleman Bears of the B scored a major victory last night at Cash Machine U (ATM for the uninformed).

The Bears fought through FIVE, that's FIVE overtimes to secure the win. With half the team fouled out, everyone got in the on the action.

Cash Machine U has decided to cancel the remainder of its season and spend its efforts trying to convice Billy G to come back. They have appropriated funds from Coach Fran's website to cover the cost of the Kentucky buyout. Kentucky has demanded four sets of false tooth and 149 cases of Rebel Yell.

Yessir, I said 5 Overtimes!

Coach Drew pulled a major upset over the 10th ranked Agrics to take the first meeting with the teams both being ranked in 93 years! Yaawwwwwsaaaa!

Congrats to Coach Drew and the Gentlemen Bears. I take back all those times when I made fun of our now dear coach. OK, not all of them.

The players were exhausted after the big game, and just wanted to shower and get back to Waco were they will accept thier status as Demi-Gods.
