A little advice when you go to Vegas to bet College Basketball:
- Stay away from the big lines, the guys who put the lines together are absolute geniuses. I swear I saw Biff Tannen there.
- The spread kills.
- Parleys suck (but they are sweet when you hit them).
- Don’t listen to the strangely convincing asshole SEC fans as they are always wrong.
- Always bet WVU! Good ol’ reliable.
Although I lost a little, doing Vegas during the 1st and 2nd round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tourney is a shit load of fun. If you ever get the chance to go, I highly recommend it. Guys and gals from all over the country, from every school from every corner of the Big Dance are there cheering their teams on and betting every game. It’s a blast. It really makes every single game worth watching.
So enough about this, back to business.
The WVMountaineerSports Bracket Challenge is very close. If you haven’t been over to check out your bracket here are the top 10 Brackets:
I’m hanging in at #11, but hell I don’t want to win and be stuck with all of these awesome prizes! I’m pulling for VCL Mounties, they are the only bracket in the top 10 that puts WVU winning the whole sha-bang! Good Luck!
So I’m signing off for now… WVU plays Thursday night at 7:10PM vs. Xavier. If you’re in Pittsburgh let’s all meet up at UGLY’s and get Ugly on some Xavier ass and get to the Elite 8 baby! This is going to be huge for HuggyBears recruiting!

I wasnt expecting to be in the lead after the first weekend with all the upsets, praying for the higher seed this weekend and of course for the mounties, the only upsets i want are the mounties to take down the rest of our side of the bracket

MountaineerBob - you can’t possibly be thinking about watching the game at Ugly’s. Have you learned nothing from watching football there? That place is very bad for WVU. If we lose tomorrow, I’m holding you personally responsible. There will be consequences and repercussions!

Well Couch since all of my friends are popping out kids and have to do real world things like soccer practice instead of watching the game, I have to go to UGLY’s. Plus there is a damn Penguins game on at the same time so all of the townie bars won’t even be showing the game and I don’t feel like getting in a fight with a yinzer.

MoutaineerBob - what are you talking about…parleys rock. I told you you should’ve bet with me, not against me!! It’s a rarely to come home from Vegas with more money than you started with, so I’m going to enjoy the memory. F-You Vegas, I gotcha this time.
