Boiled Sports: The Handsome Bracket Challenge

The Handsome Bracket Challenge

With one game to go in the 2012 NCAA Tournament, the potential winners are now clear in the Handsome BS Bracket Happy Times Extravaganza.

I'd like to point out that at least one of the BS editors (ME) has lived up to knowing something about college basketball. I'm currently in 7th place overall and with a Kentucky win, I can finish as high as 4th. Or first, if the three people who would be ahead of me resign due to illegal campaign contributions.

If UK wins, the current leader -- PurdueKirk -- will claim victory and lay claim to his rule over all of you, his soon to be loyal subjects. If KU pulls off another weird victory, it'll be schaefd2146 who brings home the hardware.*

So enjoy your last college basketball game of the season (err, sorry, you're last men's college basketball game) and if you're one of the two aforementioned dudes, contact us after the final buzzer to discuss your prize. We used to offer a chance to post here and an appearance on the podcast, but since that doesn't seem enticing enough, you can choose from a night of passion with absentee editor Tim, Boilerdowd's riding lawn mower (it cuts Purdue "Ps" in the lawn!) or my bottle cap collection.**

*Note, actual hardware not included.
**Prizes subject to availability

Kirk said...: I promise to be a benevolent overlord. What happened to the winner getting a lifetime license for one of those gold courtside seats?

BS about BS

"I like to tell people going to Hammer & Rails is a lot like going to Class of '50 lecture hall. You're going to learn a lot, it's full of other people, and your teacher is very knowledgeable. Boiled Sports to me, though, is like going to Harry's Chocolate Shop. It's small, kind of dark and cramped, people are cracking wise, Boilerdowd and J are pouring out the tough spirits, and the vague smell of beer and popcorn lingers with you."

"My favorite Purdue Sports site. Where do I begin? Mayhaps it's the witty repartee, mayhaps it's the sexy writers, mayhaps it's my rack prominently displayed (or modeling, whatevs) on their website. One thing's for sure: I have a crush...and it's been boiled." -More Than Sweet Potatoes

"If you like your Boilermaker news and updates served warm with sarcasm with a hint of commentary, Boiled Sports is a must." -Purdue Basketball Blog

"You guys have that certain flavor that makes it so much better. Crap, that sounded really, really [like something a tidy man might say to another tidy man]."

"Well-written, high expectations, uncompromising written beatdowns of Joe Tiller and company only to lighten the mood with the occasional posts of hotties."
