Are We Crazy? We Will Live Blog From Noon to Midnight Tomorrow 

We are about to embark upon perhaps the greatest yet tiresome and ludicrous feat ever attempted by this humble, little blog of ours.

We will try (and succeed!) to live-blog the greatest day in sports for 12 straight hours. Beginning with the 12:20 PM games all the way until the 9:40 PM games.

In order to do this, a little bit of preparation is required...

From a semantics standpoint we purchased the March Madness package from Direct TV, which will actually allow us to view each and every game.

Now to the grind. We will only leave our chair to use the bathroom and pay the Chinese delivery man (beef and broccoli), Italian delivery man (pizza), and our roommate who will be making several grocery store runs for beer, chips, and perhaps some Chris Simms homemade spinach dip. Other than that we will spend the rest of our time live-blogging and most likely cringing as our brackets are prematurely dismantled on day 1.

So please join us and share your comments, brag about the upsets you predicted, and the cinderellas that screwed you over once again. It should be a fun time!

this is kind of like when ryan and i announced the entire 2004 superbowl using a toy AM transmitter... except nobody listened... partially due to the fact that it only transmitted some 30 feet. yep.
that's what lonesome 13 year old sports fanatics do... yep.

Well, Ramrod of course. He would be best suited for a position such as this one. Being that he is such a smooth and efficient driver.

For those that don't know, my roommate aka stuuu barnness is Canadian and loves hockey. Don't worry, that kind of stuff isn't contagious though.

A) Pizza here sucks.
B) The grocery stores here only sell wine coolers. And Zima.
C) The Canadian roommate built an ice skating rink in the backyard. We call it Terrence and Philip's Frozen Fartland.

As for my so-called driving skills, I'll get your food, but you're paying for the tickets.

Littering and... littering and...Go Albany!

Good luck. I'm counting on your and Awful Announcing to take me through the day until I get out to Las Vegas.

Get ready boys!

Vegas sounds damn fun though. We will try to provide you with some excitement via the live-blog!
