OPENTHREADNEATGAMELIVE: MORE LIKE CHODE-RUNNERS

Texas-San Antonio Roadrunners @ Iowa Hawkeyes


(youtube unrelated)

Tipoff's in 10 minutes, game's on Mediacom Connections in Iowa for those of you "lucky" enough to have cable, and I'm sure Dolph and Mac will be there too, called the action as they drown themselves in gimlets.

Viewers and well-wishers, you know where to put the comments (up your ass! LMAOOOOOOOOOO), and I'll be around before halftime.

Score is 25-21 Iowa

UTSA has Bob Huggins’ bastard son on their sideline. The nose and hair slick are dead giveaways.

I still hate Mac McCausland

Also, David Palmer apparently does in fact exist. That’s basically all I’ve gotten from this game. I guess I could talk about Tate and Fuller playing well so far, and the court vision of Matt Gatens, but we’re playing UTfuckingSA

Oh yeah -

Go to that link, and scroll down until you see the listing for the Iowa game. It works perfectly.

thank you

for the link – my btn stream was having a seizure

Jesus Christ

If this is how Iowa handles UTSA’s press, we are superbuttfucked in the Big 10.

AKA Shadow

Well, yeah

I had sort of prepared myself for that already though. This is what happens when the only real point guards on the team are Jeff Peterson and the coach’s kid.

by NorseHawk on Nov 17, 2008 7:45 PM CST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Gatens is not 18 years old.

He is 25 and buying liquor for the rest of the team. 18 year olds do not look like that.

AKA Shadow

Correct me if I'm wrong

But did Mac just explicitly tell UTSA to “take out” Peterson the next time he goes into the lane? Does he know which team is which?

AKA Shadow

by Oops Pow Surprise on Nov 17, 2008 7:49 PM CST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I don't think he even knows where he is

Did you hear his awkward 10 minute ramble about golf earlier in the game?

by NorseHawk on Nov 17, 2008 7:50 PM CST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Hey! Mark Jennings!

My parents know people who know him!!

That basically makes me famous!!

by Bucketochicken on Nov 17, 2008 7:53 PM CST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I actually treasure

the fact that I no longer have the Mediacom connections channel and don’t have to watch this on my television. Although listening to Mac ramble on about nothing reminds me of Harry Caray.

by The Nihilist on Nov 17, 2008 7:55 PM CST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Exactly.

There’s nothing endearing about a 60-something man who looks like Cloris Leachman rambling incoherrently about… stuff. With Harry it was funny and charming, with Mac, it just kinda makes you itchy and nervous.

WHOOOO 14 year old Green Day songs

Actually the fact that Dookie is 14 years old makes me feel old. Thanks a lot, Iowa Band.

I have no idea why I’m still watching this.

How many years in a row have we played UTSA anyway?

I feel like at least 15. It’s almost at the point where it may challenge our epic rivalry with Maryland Eastern Shore.

by NorseHawk on Nov 17, 2008 7:59 PM CST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I've mentioned that they're playing UTSA, right?

Anyway, if you want to draw anything from that, the inside guys look good, Tony Fucker is having a decent bounce-back game, Gatens isn’t scoring but is clearly the best passer on the team, and we have no one who can reliably get the ball up the court against a press.

by NorseHawk on Nov 17, 2008 8:03 PM CST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

One assist that won't show up

UTSA left someone so insanely open that Gatens was pointing at him, then Tate(?) hit him for a three.

Just looking at the schedule...

Our first road test is at The Citadel? What the hell? Are we that pathetic that we have to go home and home to The Citadel on the schedule?

I love that having Michael Buffer doing ring entrances is a selling point

And Joe Frazier might be in the building!

Come on, Prairie Meadows, I think we all know the Hector “Macho” Camacho sells himself.

Hey watch it

They prefer to be called persons with disabilities… but never underestimate the hilarity of teaching people with mental retardation and hearing them call someone else a retard.. I have never laughed so hard in my life

Mac just claimed

that a guy was good at basketball because he was from Philadelphia, and they have tough guards in Philadelphia.

If people can’t get your show to work for almost a half hour, it is a fair comment to say your software is “made of human shit.”

Is it Survivor Series?

I’ve been watching this for exactly half an hour, and I can tell you Cena will win the championship and Orton will fight him at the next one.

What they've done with Chris Jericho should be a capital offense

The son of Dusty Rhodes is out there too!

However, there is a conspicous lack of polka dotted tights, which makes me think they might be lying.

Oh shit, now Cowboy Bob Orton’s kid is there! Thank god he didn’t inherit his father’s permanently broken arm.

One thing to keep in mind

This is still a really, really young team. Here’s a complete list of players who have been at Iowa more than two years:

Cyrus Tate
JR Angle

which is fine with me—they don’t seem to be the nightmares at the stripe that Iowa was last season.

Because the ball was definitely off Iowa.
