Now let's fire up the second half!

*just kidding DB. You lead by 0:57.
**If one competitor defaults the 1st half and his/her opponent defaults the 2nd half, the one who commented the soonest after the comment time thread was posted in their respective half wins.
65 comments:
Yo!
Boom! And on to the next round.
Halo! And we're off running
And boom goes the dynamite.
Movin' to the next round. Where are you Quad?
Oy!
Your asterisk comment cracked me up, EK! Nice.
Not another phantom right?
@Jason-
Boo!
Dagger!
I pity the fool who comes up against me the next round.
actually, damn, it looks like I'm up against Jason the next round. Time to take some time off work!
Ahhh I just woke up. I forgot to set BOTH my alarms!
Like strolling through the park.
I think we have a timestamp problem on the first three comments.
@Neeebs-
THose were from yesterday's inadvertant and nullified post. Nothing to see here, except Paul getting smoked.
Greetings from downtown Cleveland and the Summit on Communication & Sport.
IINNNNNNN!!!!! Come on, just 4 hours and 40 minutes!
sigh
Shut
@DB:
Actually, those would be void and therefore, Betsy still hasn't "officially" posted, has she?
Hmmmmmmmmmm. Since she would be my next opponent...Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
@Neeebs
That is correct, per EK's ruling of yesterday evening.
Hmm those first 3 comments from the phantom are indeed in there. those 3 will get credit for them. I'll figure something equitable out.
Okay, I'm out of the car now. I can be more verbose. I congratulate my opponent, who beat me to the punch, not once but twice in one round. Well done.
On the bright side, I actually commented from the car without killing myself or anyone else. Droid FTW.
...and across the line!
Damn, my road to the final four looks formidible if current trends hold.
Sorry as all powerful commissiner, those 3 phantom comments will count somehow. I earlier said they wouldn't count cuz I didn't know they'd be preserved
I think the first two are irrelevant anyway, as Jason and I posted early on today.
Poor Betsy, though...
I didn't realize that this changed from "standings" to "2nd half" until just now...
Will I win by default again?
I guess it didn't "change" - I was just observant enough to not realize it was a new post!
Mr. C, you've got a good shot at the first half if it starts on Monday. I'm off that day and for some reason I'm not on SoSG nearly as much when I'm not at work.
dang..where does time go
DB - Betsy's comment in the phantom post will count. Either way I'm pretty sure she'll move on anyhow, even if she defaults this half, given the double-default rules.
No defaulting this round and yay for keeping the earlier post! Take that Neebs :P
I feel a Neeebs vs Betsy smackdown on the horizon, made more intriguing given that Betsy left out an 'e' in his name.
So there are a few potential must-see matchups:
Sweet 16: Neeebs vs Betsy
Final Four: Greg vs Greg
Finals: Quad vs Loney Fan
No upset here.
Blame it on the happy fingers ;). He might win considering I'll be in AZ this weekend.
here comes the meaningless dunk to cut it to a 38 point lead
I have a feeling this will be the only round I win.
Eek. Facing off against Loney Fan next. When is the next round starting? Mondayish?
Nobody here knows how to smack-talk.
Oye Betsy. Mira tu espalda porque yo soy El Gringo Loco. Mas loco del todo mundo.
How's that for smack.
The only thing wrong here is how I'm going to boat race Josh S. next week!
Nah, I just don't have it in me.
RB, you will be a worthy opponent more than capable of holding your own, if not possibly prevailing, over me in the forthcoming round. Nonetheless, I express confidence that I, too, have the skills and acumen to advance.
TBLA just Tweeted this:
Vin Scully, most humble person alive: "I apologize for any concern that I caused."
Humble, indeed. Glad Vinny is ok and ready to broadcast this Sunday.
Ah, shucks ...
Neeebs I've been watching my back but every time I turn around all I see is you huffing and puffing trying to keep up...
Smack talk is on!
Yeah... I'm a pansy.
Aww...crap. I concede defeat.
I didn't even see this post.
Ahh well Dusty make me proud and win the whole thing like Bohemond across the Adriatic sea or Alvin and the Chipmunks.
I am leaving early and going pro now.
This one's for you, Paul!
Second post.
Comment.
Screwed.
Ok I think the sweet 16 is set! Only rbnlaw vs BWrightson was even a contest. I will make an official post at some point.
And next round kicks off Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday of next week...
Can the losers go to a specially designated bar like the Assassian game?
Slow to the computer quick to the bar pub...need help with a shorter name.
@rbnlaw: I think you thought you were screwed, but in actuality you were not. By my math you've beaten me by about ~38 mins. Alas, my #8 over #1 upset bid was not meant to be.
FUCK!!!!
Wow, we've got an 8-1 upset brewing? That would make SoSG March Madness history if it played out....
So, as it correlates to the NCAA I am a Badger. Better than being an Orangeman any day.
huh? how did this disappear yesterday and then come back this morning so that it never reached my rss reader? I smell a fix.

Congrats on moving on, QuadStevens.
Thank Gawd Ebglich ist me strongk soot. Knot maths.
Thanks for a good match up, B.
EK can suck it (my smack talk).
DB. No quarter; no mercy. biznach.
