The exciting thing is what happens next year. More than what teams and players emerge as interesting stories, I am anxious to discover new sources of information you can't get anywhere else. And for the most part, those sources will be blogs.
...
That's the thing about blogs. They have much more potential to push boundaries and throw out ideas that may or may not be total crap. There's a fair amount of crap out there and there was plenty of crap on this site. But it's reassuring to know there was some useful stuff here and elsewhere in blog-land that folks found interesting enough to share with a wider audience.

so the ban on jesus comic books

2005-04-13T18:59:00.000-07:00

has been lifted in greece.

A Greek court on Wednesday has lifted a ban on selling a cartoon book from Austria depicting Jesus Christ as a drinking buddy of Jimi Hendrix and a marijuana-smoking, naked surfer.

Austrian cartoonist Gerhard Haderer had been found guilty by a Greek court of "malicious public blasphemy" earlier this year and given a six-month suspended prison sentence for his take on the life of Christ.

But the Athens appeals court ruled the book was not "blasphemous" and overturned Haderer's conviction, his lawyer Maria Marazioti told Reuters.

yeah, that "malicious public blasphemy", that's the worst.

general grievous scoop?!

a’ight, so i done finded this here online: general grievous in revenge of the sith may have the ability to wield four-count-‘em-four lightsabers at once. How cool would that be!

The new bad guy Meet General Grievous: half-alien, half-robot, and all Toys 'R Us bestseller. Grievous, who looks like the offspring of Skeletor and one of Will Smith's ''I, Robot'' nemeses, is the Donald Rumsfeld of the Separatist forces. The aptly named, many-limbed Grievous is capable of attacking with as many as four lightsabers at once, all taken off the corpses of fallen Jedi. And unlike the near-mute Darth Maul, the all-CGI Grevious will actually talk. (Lucasfilm wouldn't comment on reports that Gary Oldman is in negotiations to do the honors.)

lyrics from me favorite crowded house song, written by the late paul hester:

Italian Plastic

Written By P. Hester

I bring you plates from Rome
You say they look fantastic
I say we're having fun
Nothing like that Italian plastic

I bring you rocks and flowers
You say they look pathetic
You pick me up at night
I don't feel pathetic

CHORUS
When you wake up with me
I'll be your glass of water
When you stick up for me
Then you're my Bella Bambina

I say we're on a trip
Looks like we're on vacation
I say we're having fun
In our little constellation

Chorus

Then I'll be your Bella Bambino, your man on the moon, I'll be your little boy running with that egg on his spoon, I'll be your soul survivor your worst wicked friend, I'll be your piggy in the middle, stick with you till the end

crowded house drummer found dead

you'll be missed paul.

Decoding "Deuce Sp34k"

2005-03-25T13:09:00.000-08:00

Although the Deuce still causes me head to ache a bit, I've endeavored to establish some guidelines for understanding to assist the confused (like me). While there's alot that's apparently random, there are a few consistencies.

Rule One: when the number "4" appears in a word it always represents the letter "A", as it pl4yer.

Rule two: when the number "3" appears in a word it represents the letter "E", as in play3r.

Rule three: when the number "1" appears in a word it represents the letter "i", as in p1mp.

Rule four: when the number "7" appears in a word it represents the letter "L", as in p7ayer.

Feel free to add or amend. Many of you have prolly figured this much out already, but for those who hav3n't, th3r3 you go.

Regarding the Paige Laurie investigation;
University of Southern California, USC, officials have not returned our repeated attempts to get information. In November the Dean of Student Affairs said he had launched an investigation, but student records are private and Paige Lauries's parents have never commented, saying it was a private matter.

me new digs

2005-03-19T00:11:00.000-08:00

now that i've done decided to make this here blog me new digs for a spell there's some changes needs a made around here. for starters, i'm considering expanding the blog membership from just lonely old frithembleer to include a few friends, possibly fellow bloggers, and maybe even some like-minded (or, not so like-minded, if they're willing to play nice) individuals i befriended this season at phog.net. for the time being i'll start by adding my good friend, frithembleer2 (yes, there are two of us). his first entry will come after (assuming he agrees to play) i get him added. oh, and by the way, frithembleer2 prefers to be referred to as "the deuce" NOT i repeat NOT "the 'bleer2", "bleer2", "freeezembleezer2" etc. (i'm serious about this one -- you don't wanna piss the deuce off; trust me.) oh, one more thing: any o' the rest o' yous what wants to play, too may request to apply for blog membership by pm'ing my inbox (i'll be lurking at phog.net for an indefinite period of time, and will check the inbox sporadically), or if you feel comfortable you can apply by replying with your email address/name you want to post on my blog as in this here thread. should be fun.

f*ck it!

screw being a college basketball fan!!! this is the end? just like that, all that is evil and revolting triumphs yet-a-friggin'-gain?!? so yer tryin' to tell me that the good guys NEVER get to win?!?! unacceptable. am i done? will i be back? part of me just wants to stay here on my blog. somebody please convince me why i should return to phog.net and (more importantly) why i should continue to be a college basketball fan, because i'm just ... out of answers. for now ...

goddammit i RAGED against the power of the dying of the light; i even freaking Became! "Became"? became what? i'll tell you what, it appears that all that i became was mad ... no, i'm not mad, i'm ANGRY! angry at the whole goddamned world. was it worth it? is it worth it to continue? meditate on these questions i must. 'bleer, out.

[edit: comments are of course enabled, welcome and encouraged on this thread. on the off chance that a bucknell, illinois, north carolina, missouri, k-state, duke or any other school's fan should happen to stumble upon me blog, please play nice or i won't let you play at all. if you have something constructive to offer, other than a flame, feel free to comment. if not, please move along now, and be aware that flames will merely result in being removed by an administrator. play nice, or we won't let you play at all. oh, yeah, and i've stopped posting at phog.net ... for a while. i did reserve the right to lurk and possibly resume posting. oh, and i also became a delicious fishburger. eh, why not?]

road to the title

kansas beats bucknell and wisconsin, then handles an impressive four consecutive acc opponents, beginning with nc-state before squaring off with unc. the 'hawks prevail to face duke and emerge victorious. the jayhawks win their 5th national title in a thriller over wake forest. that's how i see it playin' out. fo' shizzle!

Some Perspective on Being a Fan

"It is not da critic who counts, not da one who points out how da strong mutha stumbled or how da doer of deeds might has done 'em better n' shit. The credit belongs da mutha who is actually in da arena; whose face is marred wit sweat 'n dust 'n blood; who strives valiantly; who errs 'n comes short again 'n again; who knows da bomb diggity enthusiasms, da bomb diggity devotions 'n spends himself in a worthy cause 'n who, if tha dude fails, at least fails while daring greatly so that tha dude's place shall never be wit those cold 'n timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat n' shit."

"Throwing Bricks"

by frithembleer

Players:

frithembleer - Bomb Diggity Scourge
The gods - dieties
Refs - officials
Duke, Arizona - elite wannabes
Dean Smith - evil incarnate
Chorus

ACT I:
Spring, 1993

frithembleer: Oh, Kansas! Brave New World, the spectacle of the NCAA tourney.

The gods: Tradition! Validate North Carolina's elite status.

Chorus: Group hug! Long live Kansas! Long live North Carolina! Duke sucks!

ACT II:
Spring, 1997

frithembleer: Oh, fairly-seeded NCAA tourney! Y'all's toast.

Arizona: Whahahahaha!

frithembleer: Oh, gods! Why hast thou forsaken Kansas?

The gods: (silence)

Chorus: The best team doesn't always win the NCAA tourney.

ACT III:
Spring 2002 - Spring 2003

Scene I:

frithembleer: Oh, fairly, correctly-seeded NCAA tourney! It's Kansas' turn, finally!

Refs: Whahahahahaha!!

frithembleer: Woe me. Woe Kansas! gods?

The gods: Experience, particularly Final Four experience.

Chorus: There is no try, only do. We needs us a scourge, frithembleer. Get you a purple lightsaber, dawg!

Scene II:

frithembleer: Curses, incorrectly, unfairly-seeded NCAA tourney! Hmmmph. Kansas shall triumph supreme, anyhow!

Duke, Arizona: Bugger all. We're toast, we're toast!

Dean Smith: Whahahahahahaha!!!

frithembleer: Tradition! Experience, particularly Final Four experience!! Kansas! Seniors!! Sweetness and Light! All that is Good and Pure and True about college basketball!!! gods?

The gods: Carmelo!

Chorus: RAGE against the dying of the light, frithembleer!! There is still hope!

ACT IV:
Fall 2004 - Winter 2004/2005

frithembleer: Oh, college basketball's regular season! I'm a Bomb Diggity Sourge now -- beware!

Chorus: All hail the ACC! All hail the Big East! All hail Illinois! All hail North Carolina! Wait, no ... all hail Illinois! Wait, no ... all hail North Carolina! Wait, no ...

frithembleer (interrupting in dismay): Et tu, Chorus?! Avaunt, detested kites, lest I scourge thee!! I will RAGE!!!

ACT V:
Spring 2005

frithembleer: To believe, or not to believe? That is the question. Whether 'tis nobler to believe in Sweetness and Light, and that sometimes, just sometimes, the best team CAN win the NCAA tourney and it is finally Kansas' turn to do so. Or ... to join with the doubters and unbelievers? I will RAGE against the ... the gods? Yes, I will join the doubters and unbelievers! Gimme some bricks!

(frithembleer grabs some bricks, cocks his arms, prepared to chuck the bricks at the gods' temple)

[Deus Ex Machina]

The gods: Do not despair, frithembleer! If we exist, and if we don't hate Kansas, then we'll reward you, and right soon. Trust in us, and keep the faith that we know what is best for all that is Good, Pure, and True in college basketball! Believe in Sweetness and Light! That is why you have been chosen (though MANY were worthy). You have been chosen for the Great Becoming! As you Become, you must help them to understand, and to truly Believe!!! Go forth, and tell them. Tell them of the Great Becoming!

frithembleer: And Kansas, gods? What of Kansas?

The gods: Kansas is no longer your task, frithembleer. Your task is the Great Becoming! Finish your Great Becoming; leave Kansas to us! Go forth. More details will be revealed to you soon, so remain watchful.

frithembleer: Aye! Onward and Upward -- to the Becoming!

The gods: Not so fast, frithembleer. We've changed our minds. Bucknell!

frithembleer: Woe me! I can take no more. The gods hate Kansas. I will become a fishburger; a disillusioned fishburger.

the ode

Ode to frithembleer: Oh, great scourge! Wield your purple lightsaber! Dark is the path before you, but through many toils and snares you have already come. Go forth, in pursuit of sweetness and light! Carry on, great 'bleer!

Will a national championship for Roy Williams help frithembleer un-Become a disillusioned fishburger?
	Yes, since it would prove that the gods don't hate all the good guys.
	No, because it would prove that the gods do hate Kansas.
	It doesn't really matter. Only a Kansas national championship at some time in the future can validate college basketball as a sport worth following.
	I don't understand any of this. You're an odd one, frithembleer!
