I checked out of last night’s NCAA Championship game about ten minutes in (North Carolina already up by double digits, on pace to score 60 in the first half) and flipped on what would prove to be a lukewarm episode of 24 (only reason we endured that much of the game was so we could rifle through the commercials).

Then, I felt like a timing genius when we tuned back in just in time to see this nonsense in the stands…

I thought seeing HaShades Thabeet making time with his best girl would be the highlight of the show. But, wrong. Should have waited to see this.

Did the In Loving Memory Of guy at the end write this jam? Because I’m gonna feel like a big d if he did after saying this: that song was absurd and preposterous. Preposterousness at it’s finest though. Because I’m sure that made the Hansbrough family weep, and the rest of us cut-up, just like during one of Hansbrough’s E-trade commercials…

Hat’s off to Hansbrough for his tourney performance – you’re a tough mofo who plays an ugly version of basketball that we don’t see too often anymore. But your pro career is going to fledgling, and I’ll never stop making fun of people who have or will inevitably be getting a ton of money they do not deserve.

H/T to Brahsome for first posting this year’s opus One Shining Moment.

If last year at this time you had told me that next year at this time (which is this time in space right here right now, Will Robinson) I’d be entering an NCAA tournament bracket pool where to the victor went a collection of no less than five variations of pork product, consolidated in edible log/explosion form…man, I’d go ahead and call. You. Wacky. But I’d befriend you immediately.

Fast forward a year later to today, I’d be calling you my fun genie, and offering you the executive fun genie privilege of having your face photoshopped onto one these fun genies pictured below. Because as it would have it, I have indeed found myself to be a registered participant in an NCAA tournament bracket pool where I am competing for the chance to sink my chompers into one of those baconized beast.

If you decide to enter, check out my bracket – it’s called FUN GENIE.

….

Two other unorthodoxed NCAA tournament challenges of note for you to try your hand at:

• Someone sinister came up with the Bracketology XD’s Bracket Challenge the idea of giving away a night of glee which includes a meet-and-greet with Penthouse’s 2007 Pet of the Year, Heather Vandeven. You don’t need a fun genie to tell you many, many people are going to enter this.

• Also worth checking out, The Locker Room Alumni Bracket Contest – a tournament that’s pitting celebrity alumni from the schools in the Mountain West Conference. If for no other reason, go cast a vote Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger (Air Force Alum, duh).
