Paging Kent State

The only game I haven't watched yet is, so far, the biggest beat down of the day. UNLV is smoking Kent State 29-8. You usually expect the 8-9 games to be somewhat close. Apparently Kent State didn't get the memo.

Rick Grosvenor said...: I don't believe I did. But I didn't make a copy of my bracket to take home, so I'm not 100% sure. It's 31-10 now. Apparently I'm not allowed to watch that game, though. I keep getting a message that the game is available locally and, thus, not on DirecTV's Mega March Madness, but the Marquette-Kentucky game is the local broadcast.

where is Kent St?

what is their mascot?; March 20, 2008 at 3:47 PM
Rick Grosvenor said...: Well, without going online and cheating, Kent State is in Ohio, I believe, and they're the Golden Flashes, if I'm not mistaken.; March 20, 2008 at 3:48 PM

Anonymous said...: What kind of mascot is that? For my money, nothing beats the Stanford Tree. Even Otto the Orange.; March 20, 2008 at 3:51 PM
Anonymous said...: Well done JK. UNLV is actually pretty decent this year. I give them a legitimate shot against Kansas this year, because for some strange reason, everything I pick Kansas to go far in the tourney, they love to foul up in the 2nd round...; March 20, 2008 at 3:51 PM
Scott Barrett said...: Sports-wise, who is Kent State's biggest alum? (not in size, in stature, although he is a big dude).; March 20, 2008 at 3:54 PM
Anonymous said...: That still doesn't answer the question about the mascot. Are you trying to make me leave this site to find out? (And is Josh paying you?); March 20, 2008 at 3:54 PM

Rick Grosvenor said...: Sheila, meet my friend Paul Halon. Halon, meet my bosses, Scott and Sheila (aka anonymous).
And no, I'm not paying Paul.; March 20, 2008 at 3:59 PM
Anonymous said...: Is the mascot an old guy in an overcoat that has incontinence issues?

Josh gets paid?; March 20, 2008 at 3:59 PM
Anonymous said...: Hi Paul, thanks for joining us. Josh and Scott need the support! BTW, I used to be SheilaM but the login I created at work no longer works so I'm back to Anonymous while awaiting an answer from our system manager. In case you didn't already notice, I'm way behind the technological times ... cable TV, desktop computer ... and I'm watching Marquette on a little portable color TV with rabbit ears in the computer room (enjoying analog while I can!); March 20, 2008 at 4:01 PM
Anonymous said...: I think Josh and I have a hate/hate relationship: we hate a lot of the same things and we hate having to make friends with other people so we still talk to each other because we go pretty far back...; March 20, 2008 at 4:02 PM
Rick Grosvenor said...: That about sums it up. With a dry, cool wit like that, you could be a journalist ... or an action hero.; March 20, 2008 at 4:08 PM
