I got added on some group text chat between a bunch of Duke and UNC fans last night (I used to live in NC). These UNC fans had zero respect for Coach K. Just killing the Duke guys on the thread. Plus, UNC fans rushed their equivalent of Woodland and Euclid after the game. They wanted this game badly. Pretty glorious. First time I’ve ever had respect for them.

SUNDAY RANDOS

- That was one of those games where I was comfortable before the first TV timeout, and not stressed. I knew we were winning. Nice to be able to do that on a road SEC game. Sitting at a table of friends drinking beer, slapping hands, and just smiling.

- I love waking up to social media shitting all over Coach K and what a psycho he really is.

"But remember how graceful he was when he came over to Cawood?"

Yeah, because he WON. No way he does that if Grant Hill screws up that throw and/or Laettner rims out.

FOH.

- I know I like Epicenter as a Derby contender, but Forbidden Kingdom's romp in the San Felipe really has my attention. That horse could have won by 10-12 lengths. Pretty damn impressive.

- Underrated moment of my school years: the day we had a test of State Capitals. When I was around 8, my mom bought me a puzzle of the United States. I bet I put that thing together a million times. I knew exactly where each state was located, the dimensions, and their capitals before I was 9.

I remember once we all were handed the test, I had that thing filled out in less than 3 minutes.

The history teacher was like, "WTF" when I handed it to him, and fellow classmates just giving me the same look.

I sat there in my chair looking like Secretariat in the 1973 Belmont Stakes waiting for the others to finish.

- It really pains me that one on my favorite movies is called, "Hoosiers." Eat ****, Indiana.

- Sufjan Stevens. Man, what a talent. His "Illi-NOISE" album is one of my favorites, but the "Carrie and Lowell" one is down right touching and raw. Genius.

- Is it more common to say "biscuits and gravy" or "gravy biscuits"? I have a friend that says, "gravy biscuits" and he swears that's the correct term. I'm not going to budge.

- I miss the smell of pulling a Sears/Montgomery Ward catalog out of the mailbox and opening it for the first time. I'd buy a bottle of that smell.

- Bic Comfort 3 razors are perfectly fine with dad.

- Screw it, Sunday Funday group text just went out. Betting horses, eating bar pizza, and watching NCAA conference tournament games all day with ice cold brews with friends?

Deal. That scenario is going off at 1/9 right now.

- Gang, it's going to be a fun next four weeks watching these Cats.

Likely road to the SEC-C is Alabama -> Tennessee -> Auburn.

^ That’s a tougher stretch than it will be for us to get to the FF. Avg rank of those 3 teams is 12 KenPom, 14 NET and 14 Sagarin.

Like I said yesterday, the SEC is a gauntlet…

LFG!

SEC Tournament usually doesn't mean much with the title being on Sunday...but this year it really means nothing.

We're locked into a 2 seed, we win it we'll probably grab a 1...but not much difference in 1/2 this year.

Actually prefer a 2 as long as Gonzaga isn't the 1...which they shouldn't be as one of the top 2 seeds. Arizona or Kansas as the probable 1's would be dope.

I’m not even confident winning the SEC-T gets us a 1 seed if Kansas and Baylor both make the Big 12 CG.

Our extraordinarily weak OOC schedule is going to cost us a seed.

Clarks mom is super fine though, so that hurts a little. Although she seems like the type that would have been very vocal if he wasnt getting a lot of playing time.

Dare I say, Memphis looks good?
I’ve given Duren a lot of grief this year, but that dude is playing his *** off today. Always knew the potential was there, but it didn’t seem to click for him early.

Not sure if he could’ve played the 4 next to Oscar, but I appreciate his game more now than I did.

A wonderful dinner at Merrick last night w/ my lass....$125
A very nice pour of Weller Antique after the W....$50
Reading 3 pages of jealousy about UNC-Duke on a UK board....priceless.

Sprinkles.
