The Hater’s Guide To March Madness 2016
It’s that time of year again … time to say rotten, hateful things about every team in the NCAA tournament bracket. And what a bunch of shitty, corrupt teams they are! I don’t think there’s ever been a tournament featuring so many schools that are in the middle of horrifying scandals: Yale, Cal, Oreg...
What The Way You Filled Out Your Bracket Says About You
By now, you’ve probably filled out your NCAA Tournament bracket with (a pen/typed computer words/the blood of your enemies) and submitted it to (the guy who’s organizing it/a website/your shrine to The Ancient Ones).

How To Build Your First March Madness Bracket
Somehow, as a lifelong basketball fan, I woke up today having never in my life built a March Madness bracket. How is this possible? How have I conned my way into employment at a sports website, and how long until the jig is up? I’ve put money on an early-season Minnesota Timberwolves game (and won),...
Whoever Leaked The NCAA Tournament Bracket, Thank You

The NCAA tournament selection show is worthwhile drama, for fans of many schools the nervous culmination of a season and a chance to find out where they’re going next, and for fans of a small handful, the nailbiting tension of fin...

Today the NBA played the league’s first-ever game in Africa, pitting “Team World” against “Team Africa” in Johannesburg. The game—which managed to be largely boring, yet still a breath of fresh air in the final dog days of summer—was won by Team World, 101-97, and featured one nostalgic and genuinel...
NCAA VP: Actually, Refs Did Have The Best Angle On Controversial Play
Yesterday, NCAA head of basketball officiating John Adams went on the radio and explained why officials failed to overturn an incorrect blown out-of-bounds call late during the NCAA title game: they never saw the crucial replay that showed a Duke player touching the ball last. But today Adams was c...
NCAA Officiating Head: Refs Never Saw Best Angle Of Controversial Play
To most of America, it sure as hell looked like the Wisconsin Badgers got hosed by a blown out-of-bounds call in the final minutes of last night’s championship game. It was hard to imagine how the referees could have looked at the same replay angle that we all saw at home during their review and st...
Bo Ryan Is The Poor Sport He's Supposed To Be
So Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan said some sorta poor-sport-y stuff after his Badgers lost the NCAA championship game to Duke last night.

So, Who Was That Little Guy Who Saved Duke Last Night?
There is something undeniably Duke about a team that was carried all year by star freshmen Jahlil Okafor, Tyus Jones, and Justise Winslow having its championship season saved by another freshman named Grayson. There was Grayson Allen, storming out of the anonymity that comes with a season full of DN...
Duke Beats Wisconsin For Fifth National Title
We got a competitive national championship game, but not the one that we expected.
