The Big Red Hit a Wall

...or more accurately, the Big Red ran into DeMarcus Cousins.

While we gather submissions for the interactive invention bracket, I thought I'd briefly reflect on last night's game.

Well, Kentucky is better.  A lot better.  In fact, I think that Kentucky easily wins 9 out of 10 hypothetical matchups vs Cornell and would probably grind out a win in that 10th game too.  They're just too fast and too strong.  And not in a 2007 Patriots vs Giants kinda way in which the Giants can compensate for their lack of athleticism in some areas by riding the underdog wave...and still being equally athletic in other areas (namely on defense and at running back).  This Cornell team was just not as athletic, as talented or as ready for the big stage as Kentucky.  The real question is why we deluded ourselves into thinking that Cornell had a chance (and by we, I am referring specifically to the pundits, because Cornell alumni HAVE to delude themselves into thinking their school has a chance--we've invested over $100,000 in the school and we're looking for some return on that investment in the form of one successful basketball season).  Let's debunk a couple myths here...

The Case For Cornell

...well not really, but the title sounds enticing.

(Editor's Note: Daniel is an alum of a little school in Ithaca, New York called Cornell....ever heard of it?)

And with that, I say hello and welcome to the party.  Sam could not have phrased the purpose of this blog any better -- we're trying to provide insight into the life of the unemployed.  There's a lot of hardship out there, and we see it all on TV while you're pushing papers at work.  So whether you find our posts entertaining or you're just that bored of the helicopter game, we're glad to have you onboard.  The more people that read us, the better the excuse we can give to our parents and grandparents for why we're still in our boxers at 2 in the afternoon on a Wednesday.
