jimmykc Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 Since this is basically an off season type post, allow me to ramble a bit. Since I, and most everyone else, have nothing tangible to gain from the outcome of the game, I think this may be the least watched Final Four in a long time. On the other hand, Game of Thrones is developing enough cult/geek status that those such as myself who were on board from the first episode are starting to feel pushed aside by the bandwagon fans (sort of like NU basketball). In addition, I got my Sunday paper this a.m. and was amazed to note an 18 page insert featuring Doug McDermott. This was 17 pages more that was allotted to the new Pope. Only then did I realize that the delivery man had given me an OWH rather than my LJS. However my anger was ameliorated when I found a nice feature on the confusing GOT geneology. So sometimes things just seem to work out. Quote
HB Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 Sorry, Jimmy. I can't vote. I must say I have never heard of Game of Thrones. AuroranHusker 1 Quote
CrazyforNUHOOPS Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 I voted for Game of Thrones....and I've never even seen an episode. tcp and jimmykc 2 Quote
hhcscott Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 I voted GofT. I stopped watching the NCAAs after the offensive foul call defeated Arizona. I love basketball, but after watching ten hours a day all four days of opening weekend, once my teams are done it's the offseason, and winter is coming! jimmykc 1 Quote
Hooper Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 GoT for sure. Can't wait! A UConn/Kentucky final doesn't have a ton of interest for me, but I really hope the Huskies win. I hate to see high school all-star teams win national titles. jimmykc, Norm Peterson and Noah121 3 Quote
colhusker Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 Neither as Scott said between my team being out, I can't take the officiating anymore. I had to laugh when the TBS folks talked about Jackson travelling last night on the 3 pt foul. Hello guys they all freaking travel now and the officials are all to damn lazy to call the rules. Quote
tcp Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 this is an awful final. i'd rather watch the season finale of "My Balls Itch" than the Probation Bowl. colhusker and Norm Peterson 2 Quote
Silverbacked1 Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 I voted NCAA game only because I don't have HBO to watch it. But not sure I will even watch the game, missed both last night and doesn't sound Alike I missed much. Quote
jimmykc Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Posted April 6, 2014 Wisconsin game was really good but Bo said his team was not intimidated by the venue since they have played at Ohio State and Michigan State which were much tougher places to win. colhusker, hhcmatt, AuroranHusker and 1 other 4 Quote
Silverbacked1 Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 Wisconsin game was really good but Bo said his team was not intimidated by the venue since they have played at Ohio State and Michigan State which were much tougher places to win. And how to lose at a tough place like Nebraska. Quote
brfrad Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 I'm not much on the game of thrones. I will NOT watch Coach John "Cheater" Calippari in the finals, though. Quote
nuled2dance Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 I'm in Boston going to red Sox game tomorrow....at first was like damn will miss title game...now I am at peace. jimmykc and trickey 2 Quote
Huskerpapa Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 If the Huskers were playing,,,no doubt, but they aren't, so it is the Thrones baby. Quote
KZRider Posted April 7, 2014 Report Posted April 7, 2014 Didn't see a "neither" option but went with NCAA game. Not really excited about it, though. I'd prefer to watch basketball instead of two teams playing street ball. If I wanted to watch ulitimate fighting, I'd tune in to it. Like many, the officiating is killing my interest. How at least a Flagrant 1 foul was not called when Kaminski got punched in the face is mind boggling! Quote
Cazzie22 Posted April 7, 2014 Report Posted April 7, 2014 Neither, can't stand UConn and Calipari for their less than ethical recruiting practices. Don't have HBO so I'll have to settle for a "Vikings" rerun. Quote
