Conan is going to the elite 8

[Conan]

Howdy folks,

One of my old residents called me and invited me to go to the Memphis/Texas game in Houston. I have to leave for Katy here in about 10 minutes, but I'm really excited. I'm really honored that one of my old residents from my days as an RA would think about calling me up, so it's a pretty cool moment for me.

He says he's rooting for Texas though. He wants the conference to get respect or something like that. Texas recruits in direct competition with Texas A&M. Them getting a final 4 bid can't help us. Oh well, I'll try to talk some sense into him.

I'll let you know what it was like or something.

I need Memphis to win in order to stay ahead in my "big" pool -- if Memphis loses, I'm basically screwed since a bunch of sips have texas in the Final 4.

My wife and I have our own bracket challenge each year and I really needed Memphis to lose yesterday. I am still ahead by 2 points, but if Memphis wins another game I am sunk. I had Pittsburgh beating memphis in the elite 8. She has memphis going to the finals.

I'm pretty sure Memphis can demolish UCLA if they play normally... I have Memphis in the finals as well -- so have to root for your wife. Sorry man.

It was a good time, but those Texas fans made me sick to my stomach. I'm not kidding, they shouted "Texas... Fight" about 300 times. It's so stupid and annoying. Rick Barnes wasted my time with the fouls. You're down 21 points with less than 2 minutes. Give up. I was booing when there was less than 30 seconds left and they were still fouling Memphis.

Also, Memphis has about 17 fight songs. One of them sounded like a cereal commercial. I was making a parody in my head called "Frosted Memphis Tigers".
