March Madness

[xp_adrienne]

I've decided to host a March Madness tournament, but rather than the usual bracket style, I'd like to assign each person to one team.

For example, Wade, I think I will give you the SF Austin Lumberjacks for your pick. Because, Lumberjacks.

Sam Guthrie = Nebraska Cornhuskers?

Kurt Sefton = Blue Devils?

If anyone would like to stake a claim to a team of their choice rather than me assigning them, respond to this before 12pm March 18th.

Otherwise, I'll be assigning them. And I'll be giving one to everybody, so don't think your silence will exclude you. It just means your choice is at my discretion, or the discretion of someone else who suggests something for you.

There will be a small prize for the person whose team gets farthest.

I call Wildcats!

Go Wildcats!

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Which one?

Oh, wait, are you playing the odds and taking all five of them?

You're the one who taught me Math! Can't blame me for using what you've taught me to my advantage.

Dude, I would like the Wildcats, or the Wildcats. Barring that, the Wildcats. Maybe I'd be okay with the Wildcats, and if nothing else is open, the Wildcats.

(Yeah I know Mads just made this joke but it's all I got. For serious I'd also be okay with the Badgers, because Logan SHOULD get them but there's Wolverines down there on that list too)

Which Wildcats would you like? There's a 1-seed, two 2-seeds, a 15, and a 16.

Unless you really want the Badgers.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Lets go with Villanova.

Obviously you're the "Fighting Blue Hens", KGibz. Or the Lobos, like those tools the Marines invented in WWZ to help decapitate zombies.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

I was thinking Espinosa would be a good Lobos representative? Spanish for wolf, colours are red and grey?

And I think I need to make my old friend Vanessa the rep for the Fightin' Blue Hens...

Chanticleers!

Because Chanticleers!

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Done and done!

[x-barrier.livejournal.com]

What the heck is a Chanticleer?

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

A rooster. Angel likes the... You know, she can set me on fire. I'm not even gonna.

[x-barrier.livejournal.com]

I have no good name-related jokes to go with.

So I will take the Badgers, because badger is a verb meaning "to harass," and I am the best doctor at badgering patients.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

I like the way you think!

[x-barrier.livejournal.com]

Why thank you.

(Unless you had any better ideas? Plenty of other people here could be Badgers too...)

University of Iowa, please, Miss Frost.

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Tar Heels. I want the Tar Heels.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Done! I'm disappointed you don't want Lumberjacks or Cowboys, but to each his own!

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

One day, McFrosty, I'll tell you why I want the Tar Heels.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

You have to tell her the story WHY.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

George Washington Colonials. Lee will kill me if I don't.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Who's Lee?

University of Colorado Buffaloes, please and thank you.

(even if they're seriously mediocre, it's home. Whatcha gonna do?)

Root for someone else, that's what! Like how I'm rooting for the Gators.
