Episode 27: How Bizzare

Hello sports fans! We are ankle deep in March and you know what that means! It's just about time for that college basketball tournament that no one in media is allowed to say, (much like the Super Bowl.) Look, college basketball really doesn't do it for me. I won't take it away from anyone else, but truth be told, I invite three other sports into my life to cause me heartache, another would be simply masochistic. That said, I am certainly not going to let this kind of hype piss away, nor the opportunity to play into Double M alliteration. So I have developed a tournament. Eight schools will compete (I guess by playing basketball, but who cares) in the greatest tournament known to Man...

Shanks Calhoun's Pizza Delivery and Boil Removal Present

Minch Madness 2012!!!

We start with the school that didn't make it in again this year Rick Moranis' Gravedale High

This was a thing that happened. We miss you Rick.

They were eliminated from entering the tourney by our current top seed Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters

Yes, the actual X-Men play, not the students..

This school has managed to pull off amazing season despite the controversial exit of one of their assistant coaches...

It will be a great first round match up between them and the 3 seed, Hogwarts

Voldemort sits on the sidelines and heckles. Like a nose-less Spike Lee.

And don't worry, this bit isn't all nerd jokes. Our second game is our 90's nostalgia match up as the Bayside Tigers take on John Adams HS. Oh you don't know who JAHS is? You might recall a few of their students/faculty.

Damn right I got a pic with Max in it .

 

Whatever happened to the mullet teacher?

Our next round features a team that, if America was smarter, would be constantly beating the everloving shit out of the other team. It's Greendale Community College up against William McKinley High (Glee)

If this gets cancelled, you will ALL suffer.

They've killed more great songs than Kidz Bop

     

Our last game is a bit of a surprise match up Making this an international affair, coming to us from the fictional land of Canada. Degrassi High School.

Oh Drake, this is why Common Called you "Canada Dry" 

Believe it or not, this may be the game to watch. Given Degrassi's track record, there may well be a stabbing, a student getting pregnant, a coach getting robbed, and an abduction of a student's parent. What the hell goes on in Canadian High School? (Certainly not Hockey Fan Civility 101.) Their opponent is a surprise pick up for Minch Madness...

ON THE WARPATH!!!

THE BUFFALO SABRES!!!! Most of you probably never heard the edited portion of Terry Pegula's first press conference. After stating that the first objective of the team was to win a Stanley Cup, he then said, "but hey, winning Minch Madness would be neat."

So here are your brackets for the Tourney...

Um, Okay, so what next? I guess you can vote the four first round winners in the comments below or on The Ole MVW Facebook page Hey be sure to share this lunacy with your friends on Facebook and Twitter, by easily clicking the links below.
