NCAA Hate/Friday Drinking/Banging Thread
Mitch to the NBA, Lindsay to OSU, and other dangerous nouns as well.
In lieu of the usual posbang thread, what is everyone drinking?
Although, if you wish to lighten the mood with a posbang, I'm sure nobody would mind. I don't really care if you choose to bang or drink, or maybe even both at this point in time.

All the best to your friend.
April 25th, 2014 at 10:43 AM ^
Wow, that does bring some perspective. Best wishes to your friend.

Happy MOTHER FUCKING Friday, everyone.
April 25th, 2014 at 10:29 AM ^
I just shit my pants. On purpose. Happy Friday.
April 25th, 2014 at 10:54 AM ^
Good call.
Have you thought about what your story's going to be on Monday when your boss asks?
April 25th, 2014 at 11:24 AM ^
This is why it's great to be my own boss. The perks are limitless, including the ability to shit in my pants as a knee-jerk reaction to the Mitch McGary news. BTW, I'm hiring.

How many games did the Honey Badger miss. Like 2? The National Association of the Southeastern Conference needs to be fair towards the Big Ten.
April 25th, 2014 at 10:36 AM ^
I hate you, I hate you, I don't even know you and I hate your guts, I hope all the bad things in the world happen to you and you alone.
April 25th, 2014 at 10:41 AM ^
Good luck Mitch...FUCK YOU NCAA...

Going to a work event, so I will have only one drink. I'm not sure if Mitch would have left for the NBA or not if this hadn't happened, but I wish him the best of luck and will cheer for him no matter where he lands. I just hope his back is fully healed. I think I read he was in full work-outs lately, so I hope that's a good sign!

Is this the standard punishment for a player testing positive for marijuana? A one year suspension? Why am I having trouble remembering another player getting hit with this?

DEA AGENT: "Pot slows down your reactions. It slows your ability to learn as well. Your brain just really slows down. It doesn't stop functioning but it really slows down the learning curve."
ALI G: "...and is there any negative effects...?

I don't know if he would have stayed or not if he hadn't failed the drug test, but this is seriously the last straw for me and pot. Yes it is because of a Michigan athlete. The fact that pot is stil illegal is a joke and I don't care who fails a drug test, it will always be a joke.
April 25th, 2014 at 11:32 AM ^
I woke up, found out my classes are cancelled, found out mitch is gone :(. Then I went about this board and read some idiot speaking about weed rehab, because you know...about all the pot overdoses there are in the world.

Well, I just got out of a meeting only to sit down to the news about Mitch McGary, so if no one minds terribly, I may roll my eyes at the NCAA for what seems like the millionth time this month alone.
As I am at work right now, drinking is not an option, although it might be later, especially as the rain may put off today's effort to continue with the preparation work for actually planting this vegetable garden that my daughter and I have taken on.
I also might try to take my mind off things by sitting my daughter and son down to another game of actual "Monopoly" and not the Junior version this weekend. They both seem to struggle with money math and this is a perfect game for teaching the principles of it anyway. I will teach them the cutthroat trading and property strategies down the road.
Oh, and another eye roll in the direction of Mark Emmert for good measure.
April 25th, 2014 at 12:10 PM ^
and we got bsaically 5 games out of him in 2 years. He's my Michigan basketball Antonio Bass now
April 25th, 2014 at 12:18 PM ^
And it's 43 cold degrees and raining!
2014 feels more like 2013.

What a terrible Friday. Kind of want to go pee on the NCAA offices being that I'll be in Indianapolis this weekend.
just when you think nothing they do could surprise you, this.
Blow that thing up.
We need Team America to come save the mother fuckin day yeah
This has not been a good week. Pizza with many beers is the plan for tonight. Picked up some Goose Island Illinois Imperial IPA last weekend and tonight seems like a good time to crack some open. However, this is not the end of the world. They play the games for a reason and pleasant surprises do happen, so I'll stay positive and hope good karma works. Lots of time left in 2014.
Local beer bar is putting a keg of Founders KBS on tonight, I will more than a couple.
