Thank you to our loyal readers, Tom and Tim, but mostly Tim

You two have the distinct recognition of being our first “outside” posters.  By “outside” I mean not one our close friends or mothers.  Tom may be a bit delusional, or maybe his sarcastic radar is broken, but Tim seems to be a consumate professional.  I checked out Tim’s blog and after a brief skim of [...]

Westside!

TQ’s Westside (one of the most underrated songs of all time) has been playing before all the games in the West region. This region sure has a lot of pride. Onto the matchups…. (1) Florida v. (9) Alberta Florida comes into this game as the heavy favorite. Alberta has been watching clips

tgiab Persona non Grata: Butch Harmon

Slanderous golf instructor, Butch Harmon, has not been treating John Daly fairly.  Harmon claims that to John Daly, “… the most important thing in his life is getting drunk,” when everyone knows the most important thing in John Daly’s life is playing golf.  I mean, as we’ve already shown you, we even have video proof of [...]

The Second Round Begins with the South

So, we are in the second round of the Southern section, also known as the Confederacy. While the first round only had a few upsets, who knows what the second round will bring. California, Texas and Illinois are considered juggernauts. But what about New Jersey, Missouri, or Rode Island? It’s hard to say. To find [...]

Not much needs to be said.

The one interesting note, is that the dress code clearly states “Appropriate Golf Attire (No Denim).” Also, by far the two best quotes: 1. “Off the back tees, shoeless and shirtless with cigarette in mouth” 2. “I like to have fun. The injuries I have had over the last year and a half have really [...]

The NFL Draft happened.

Three points of emphasis. Will there be a fight to the death between Mel Kiper Jr. and Todd McShay? Every time I heard these guys this weekend they were bickering about whether a guy had great intangibles or if he had terrific upside. If neither of those were mentioned, then it was most likely a [...]

And the First Round is Finally Over…

With only one major upset, the states and provinces of the East region have competed hard and the outcomes have been determined. 8. Ohio vs 9. Georgia One time, Ohio’s Cuyahoga river caught on fire. Usually that would be pretty disgusting and a huge strike against them, but for some reason in this battle the [...]

It’s Joey’s Birthday

Hansbrough Stays in school

A common pastime for the men of tgiab has been the future of Luke Harangody. We all love Luke. We all want him to succeed post ND in the NBA. We even believe he has the ability to be a first round pick. However, when the reigning player of the year in the NCAA, a [...]

The Confederacy

Welcome to the Confederacy regional, or for the PC people out there: the South Regional.  By the way, can you believe that California is the #1 seed in the South?  And that Florida is the #1 seed in the West?  You would think travel might play into the tournament performance of these teams.  The committee [...]

Who Said It? #2

We interrupt the State Tournament to bring you the second weekly quote.  You thought we forgot, didn’t you?  Well, we did, but luckily a loyal reader reminded us and gave us a great one:

West, West yo.

First off, I hope everyone knows where the “West, West yo” is from. If not, please watch one of the best movies ever. And watch the unrated version, so you can hear Swardson say, “Yea, Let’s Fu%&ing Rage!” Alright, so back to the topic on hand… The West bracket presents some interesting matchups. First up: [...]

1st Round – A Couple Midwest Region Upsets

1. Massachusetts vs. 16. Manitoba Manitoba is like that spunky Belmont team that makes it into the tournament seemingly every year recently, but will always get a horrible draw. Manitoba has something going for it, mostly the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, who have won 10 Grey Cups, the most of any team in the CFL. But [...]

The Committee Has Spoken!

After days and days of deliberation and preparation, the brackets have been released. Please click on the bracket image to view the full tournament. I would personally like to thank the committee for all their hard work, and tireless attitude. It is appreciated by the tgiab staff and their readers. Already donned by many as [...]

Selection Sunday has finally arrived!

For a special group of 64 states, provinces, territories and countries, the months of hard work and dedication are about to pay off. This is the reason they compete. This is the reason they elect politicians, celebrate heroes of yesteryear, spend $200 million on the local team’s payroll and in California’s case, cover-up any and [...]
