Around SBN: The Worst Team Ever Projected?

BHGP BRACKET MADNESS ROUND 1: J LEMAN VS. DMBMEG

This is what we're voting on. Today: the current Mr. J Leman vs. the future Mrs. M Leman!

J LEMAN

PROS: Jesus Christ, look at him - chiseled jaw, carefree grin, and hair like Cheryl Tiegs. Patron saint of BHGP.  
Oh, and he's the best linebacker in the BXI.

CONS: Illini - nuff said.

DMBMEG

PROS: One of our most "prolific" commenters. This Iowa alumna has a crazed smile, hair like a mushroom cloud, and smells like Fruity Pebbles. Also, she's startlingly effective at derailing comment threads.

CONS: Blogger. A penchant for violence and petty theft. Drinks.

is going to haunt me for the rest of my life, isn't it?

I mean, J Leman's hair just looks so.....good.

there are 9 people so far

Who I will track down and motherfucking cut.

don't you dare

use my blog against me. I know where you live (not really)

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 10:45 AM CDT up reply actions  

And even if you did...

...what, would you ride your new bike over here and kick my ass or something?

by Bucketochicken on Mar 13, 2008 10:58 AM CDT up reply actions  

Incidentally, I voted

for Meg because...  well, fuck Illinois, that's why.  Plus, as a former swimmer, I can't vote against The Swim Cap.

by Bucketochicken on Mar 13, 2008 11:11 AM CDT up reply actions  

holy shit

how is J not winning this thing in a landslide?  nothing against you, dmbmeg, but is J Fucking Leman...the guys first name is a letter for christ's sake.

i'm dissapointed, frankly.

by big11th blog on Mar 13, 2008 11:02 AM CDT reply actions  

what, am I a communist?

I'm from fucking Minnesota for christ's sake, AND I HAVE RED WHITE AND BLUE UNDERWEAR.

That's better than a fucking tie.

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 11:04 AM CDT reply actions  

compared to J

we are all communists.  even bruce springsteen.

by big11th blog on Mar 13, 2008 11:09 AM CDT up reply actions  

i figured

but i want to assure you that's not my point.

if tom petty was matched up against dylan, i'd have to vote dylan....doesn't mean damn the torpedoes isn't one of the best albums of all time.  not that you are tom petty, i'm just trying to backpeddle a little bit....

and it all honesty, if i was matched up against J i would vote for his a a second.

by big11th blog on Mar 13, 2008 11:06 AM CDT reply actions  

for the record

connor is the best lb in the xi, lee is the second.  j third.

of course im not a homer.

by big11th blog on Mar 13, 2008 11:13 AM CDT reply actions  

don't you do it

Don't you start fact slinging! There's no place for that here.

by jebushchrist on Mar 13, 2008 11:32 AM CDT up reply actions  

You know

I think what we're seeing here is the ever popular "everyone loves to see the favorite get their asses handed to them" phenomenon.  It's time for an uprising to show that the tie, while it may have won our hearts, is now just another ho hum gee isn't it great.

Also, you say "A penchant for violence and petty theft. Drinks." like it's a bad thing.  Hell, I woke up 10 minutes ago and I feel like some violence and drinking.  The fact that the Hawks are getting killed, the BTN and fucking comcast may have reached a deal, but they couldn't bother to do it before the tournament, and the radio link that was posted isn't working for me is clearly coincidental.
Throw my enraged, yet sadly sober, vote to meg!

by chitownhawkeye on Mar 13, 2008 12:31 PM CDT reply actions  

yes!
Thank you, chitownhawkeye. BEING DRUNK RULES! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I shoved a guy on the subway this morning cause he was in my way too!

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 12:46 PM CDT up reply actions  

Bullshit

Not that I don't love dmbmeg and her incredible thread derailing ability, but how the hell is J Leman losing?  I mean just look at him.  The flowing hair, that mischievous smile, those rippling muscles....

Shit where was I? Oh, right, BULLSHIT.  Clearly there is some sort voter fraud taking place.  I demand a recount!  I will take this shit to the Supreme Court if I have to!  Captain America will not be denied!

adam

i've already called my lawyer....

dmbmeg, while i disagree with you winning this poll, i will defend to the death your right to get drunk and celebrate the victory.

by big11th blog on Mar 13, 2008 1:14 PM CDT reply actions  

:(

I've never felt worse about myself than I do at this very moment.

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 1:22 PM CDT reply actions  

Yeah

Damn Meg for trying to have fun with this!
Sign up for an ID and use a (fake internet) name or shut the fuck up, douchebag.

by jebushchrist on Mar 13, 2008 1:29 PM CDT reply actions  

Had I known

You were a swimmer, I would have voted for you a long, long time ago.  God bless you and your tight-ass (and ass!) swimsuit.

by jason3kidd on Mar 13, 2008 1:43 PM CDT reply actions  

thanks!

At least someone here has some taste.

I'm actually training for the NYC Triathlon.

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 1:45 PM CDT up reply actions  

Well, shit

That may have ruined it.  Swimmers = hot; traithaletes = crazy.  I'll give you a pass, for the goggles, but you're walking a thin line.

by jason3kidd on Mar 13, 2008 1:48 PM CDT up reply actions  

yeah

The goggles really bring out my eyes, no?

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 2:01 PM CDT up reply actions  

Actually...

I was going with the open mouth.  Inappropriate?  Yeah, probably, but what's the fun in that?

by jason3kidd on Mar 13, 2008 2:06 PM CDT up reply actions  

here

comes another teabag threat from a Buckeye fan in 3...2...1...

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 2:10 PM CDT up reply actions  

Not to be argumentative, but

Isn't that plain easier with the tongue out?

by jason3kidd on Mar 13, 2008 2:13 PM CDT up reply actions  

those teeth and uh, a scheduling problem

I can't seem to find any crowns.  Good living girl, evidently.  Not even any evident tobacco stains.  What's up with that?

What comes to mind, however, is a certain, recent Weinstein Company picture:

http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/gal...

Well, my enlightened contributions and competition seems to be ill-timed.  I'm in the Caribbean next week.  You really gonna let CBI guys get to the next round by default?  

Or do we get the right side of the bracket tomorrow?

hang in there, father time

You'll get the hang of this "linking" thing eventually.  

Brackets continue tomorrow.

by jebushchrist on Mar 13, 2008 1:57 PM CDT up reply actions  

you may resent that remark...

I knew I shouldn't try to link to obscurish folklorish subjects such as vuhvay dentata.

Life was a lot better when all I had was the Bourne shell and vi.  I wasn't quite so twisted in my allusions.

by Bellanca on Mar 13, 2008 2:28 PM CDT up reply actions  

blink blink

what?

Please talk like a human. Thanks.

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 2:29 PM CDT up reply actions  

Your mistake, AH

is that you assume J Leman is more popular in the world than myself.

Now you know.

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 2:31 PM CDT reply actions  

And

I enjoy sloth and reaping the fruits of others' hard labor. If that isn't American, I don't know what is.

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 2:52 PM CDT up reply actions  

You know damned well why

Have you seen what they've done to YouTube? I can't even watch Frank Stallone sing "Peace In Our Life"* without being told all about the Trilateral Commission or whatever.

Nuclear bombs > mullets in terms of American authenticity.

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 3:40 PM CDT reply actions  

Well...

...sort of.  But that's kinda' like saying humans are apes.  We are and we aren't, ya know?  

by Bucketochicken on Mar 13, 2008 4:28 PM CDT up reply actions  

(grumble)

Dude, we are apes.

BA in Anthropology, '02.

Don't insult the chimps/orangutans/gorillas by comparing them to Bellanca.

(Sorry Bellanca, he totally set me up for that. It was too easy)

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 4:37 PM CDT up reply actions  

Clearly I'm too allusive.

I must read too many books and scripts.

The movie, Teeth?  Huh?  Dentata Vagina?  God.  And you guys say I'm obtuse?  Christ, I'm vulgar and obvious.  

This is like arguing with the editor of Mad Magazine the Des Moines Register.  

:40-Second Bellanca

by Bellanca on Mar 13, 2008 8:41 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'm not arguing with you

Oh silly me. Why didn't I get a poorly worded comment about a obscure movie reference from a guy with a Theaurus next to him.

I just think your comments are pompous and needlessly complicated. I also don't like it inferred that I am stupid because you read more "books and scripts" than me (how's that copy of Horton Hears a Who going?).

QUICK! EVERYONE! LOOK HOW SMART BELLANCA IS! HE USES THE WORD 'OBTUSE' AND HE ISN'T EVEN TALKING ABOUT AN ANGLE OVER 90 DEGREES!

by dmbmeg on Mar 13, 2008 9:43 PM CDT up reply actions  

Fine!

Well... anyone else who takes shots anonymously? That was directed at you!

J Leman would put his goggles on correctly

People who wear their goggles upside down are America-hating terrorist fascoislamist radicalist communists.
