and so it begins...the quest to be the tournament champion of the biggest CLUSTERFUCK of a BCS level Basketball conference...it's much like being the skinniest fat kid or the coolest member of Menudo. this year's SEC tournament is taking place in Tampa and it'll have to conjure up a tornado hitting their stadium and have a miracle run by one of the SEC's worst teams if it wants to match any of the drama from last year's SEC championship.
what we need to know: there are 2 locks from the SEC right now...LSU and Tennessee, neither team has much to gain from the tournament other than seeding in the NCAAs, so you can probably just cancel out either of them from taking home the tournament. instead there's a dogpile of next level teams all fighting it out for that final AT LARGE bid to the big dance. if the SEC gets more than 3 invites we will all be surprised. in the chase for spot #3 are the Florida Gators, South Carolina Gamecocks, Auburn Tigers have the strongest claim and Kentucky Wildcats, Vanderbilt Commodores, and Mississippi State Bulldogs all could have outside shots or could be out and out tournament champs. right now South Carolina would be the most likely to get that at large bid...you could even call them Lock-ish thanks to a 21-8 record (and a 3-2 record against top 25 teams). Auburn is the hottest team having won 8 of their last 9. Florida is the team with the most street cred because of their recent success. and Kentucky is Kentucky...don't doubt that if the Wildcats could somehow make it to the Tournament finals that they won't get a spot.
smart money: bet on South Carolina to win the tournament and eliminate the hopes of any and every other SEC bubble team.
worth believing in: Auburn is the hottest team, if they can make a run and knock off a team like South Carolina or Florida they may just get an at large bid, but I'd rather just have them win the whole thing and not worry about it.
the team that'll probably just go ahead and win this shit: Vanderbilt
the wild card lousy team that'll pull a Georgia this year: Mississippi
but let's be honest, i don't watch basketball and i have no idea what i am talking about.
if Auburn can get to the finals then "You Are Forgiven" the Who style.
seriously the performance of "A Quick One While He's Away" is so awesome that the Rolling Stones cut it from the Rock N Roll Circus because they felt upstaged. pussies! so worth the 7 and a half minutes. if you wanna see the real action just cut to about the 5:50 mark and enjoy the trashing. anyways, with all the lame rock bios that have come out in the last few years when is someone gonna pull their head out of their ass and make an awesome biopic about Keith Moon?! it's the role Jason Schwartzman was born to play.
come on. it would be awesome. Make It Happen Hollywood. quit fucking around with bad versions of Comic Book movies.
