Fluids

Sorry to disappoint those of you with dirty minds, but I am talking about fluids in your car. Not as sexy but just as entertaining. Ok, maybe not entertaining, how about useful?

The first fluid we're going to cover is oil. No, we're not going to talk about changing our own oil, I've done it and it's messy. However, you do need to know if our oil is low and if you don't have a brand spanking new car, then you'll have to do this the old fashioned way.

Now, there are a few advantages to doing this. First it looks like you know something about cars because it requires you to pop the hood of your car and this, of course, will always impress the guys. Need an example? How about Megan Fox in Transformers, see below.



And yes, I do suggest doing this in a belly shirt in the middle of summer because oil does not come out of clothes. And here we go:

Step 1: Be sure to have your car on level ground, that way you'll get an accurate reading, then pop the hood of your car. If you've never done this, there's usually a latch in the center underneath. It will either slide to the right or the left in order to open the hood. After the hood's released, prop the hood up with the arm that usually resides on the side or in front of the hood.

Step 2: Grab an old towel you won't use again for showering or cooking. Paper towel will work as well.

Step 3: Locate the dipstick that is usually near the engine oil cap. All cars are different, but see picture below, you'll be looking for something similar to this.



Step 4: Once you've located the dipstick, pull it out and wipe it clean with the towel. You should see at the bottom of the dip stick something that looks like this:



The X's are sometimes dots or the stick might actually say full or low.

Step 5: Place the dipstick back in its place, then pull it out again and check to see where the oil line lies. if it is below the X's then this means you need about a quart of oil, otherwise you're fine.

Step 6: Check your owner's manual to see what kind of oil your car takes, buy oil, then pour a quart of it into the tank where the engine oil cap is. Using a funnel for this makes life cleaner and easier. When you're done DO NOT FORGET TO SCREW THE CAP BACK ON!

And you're done. Remove the arm stand and shut the hood. Wasn't that easy? Especially given when the alternative is having your car start smoking and break down on the side of the road...leading to potentially expensive repairs and towing. And let's face it...most tow truck drivers...not hot.

Elimination Weekend

So after four days of tournaments, the final four teams have emerged. They are (drumroll, please).....

#2 Michigan State

#1 Connecticut

#3 Villanova

#1 North Carolina

Since they're all highly ranked, none of them qualify as a Cinderella. Guess the NCAA fairy godmother is taking a break this year. Detroit will welcome Michigan State v. Connecticut and Villanova v. North Carolina for games on Saturday, April 4th. Winners from that round will face off Monday, April 6th. At least that will bring in SOME revenue for the ailing motor city...but that's another soapbox, for another post.

Onto prettier things! We've got the results of our "Better Bracket Bet"! Okay, so our predictions for this Better Bracket...could have been better, but we don't have ESP (just ESPN, ha). We hit 4 out of 8 right. Remember, you didn't have to get the player right, just the team that had the hottest of the highest scoring players.

Tomorrow we take a hiatus from all the basketball talk to tackle our next topic. Basic car maintenance. First up - FLUIDS, and no, not the kind you need a black light for :) Stay tuned.

The Knockoff March Madness

Ok, we are in the middle of the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 weekend, so we thought we'd leave you with a little tidbit that isn't talked about very much, but is mentioned every once in awhile and that is, the National Invitation Tournament or NIT. What is it you ask? Think of it as that Louis Vuitton hand bag you bought on the street corner in New York. Is it still better than something bought at Walmart? Probably. It looks mighty close to the real thing, but it's still not the real thing and that's what the NIT is.

It's a tournament for those teams who were mighty close to qualifying for the real NCAA tournament, but didn't quite make it. Think of it as a consolation prize. Among other names, it has been called:"Not Invited Tournament", "Not Important Tournament", "Nobody's Interested Tournament", "National Insignificant Tournament," or simply "Not In Tournament".

However, it does have it's purposes, just like that knockoff handbag. Many mediocre teams tend to use the tournament as a way to climb out of obscurity and gain some recognition. Again, a handbag that looks like a real Louis Vuitton from a distance is a step above one from Walmart, right? And some higher profile teams will use it to develop freshman or give some of their seniors who aren't playing in the "real" tournament more exposure to help them out in the draft. Um, there is no handbag equivalent to this, sorry :)

So, next season, if, perhaps, you're getting into this whole basketball thing, here are some things to watch for to figure out if your team is going to the knockoff.

1. If at any of there late season away games the home crowd starts chanting NIT, this is a bad sign. (Sidenote: this can be very helpful though in trash talking)
2. If your team is on the bubble at the end of the season, they also have a very good chance of making it into the NIT and finally,
3. If the pattern on either side of a seam doesn't match, oops, that was a tip for discovering if your handbag is a knockoff, but also useful :)

Have a great weekend! Come back Monday to see who won our mini-bracket!

What Not to Wear

Watching the games out at a bar or house party is no time to show off that new silk dress with sequin trim, because a) the cute shoes you probably would have worn it with will start to kill your feet after standing/cheering at the overcrowded sports bar and because b) buffalo wing grease and bleu cheese dressing is REALLY hard to get out of silk. Yes, we know you look super hot in it, but just trust us on this one. That being said, you don't have to follow the standard uniform of sports jersey either. Besides, you probably don't have any in your closet anyhow. Plus, sports jerseys tend to be HUGE on girls so they end up looking like a badly tailored dress or (heaven forbid you decide to tuck them into your pants) all bunchy around the waist. And even though the sports industry has tried (well, they haven't tried that hard) to accommodate women's fashions, we gotta admit, we're not huge fans of the pink girl-ified jerseys. They have a tendency to make you look like a giant pepto-bismol bottle. And yes, Jessica's just supporting her man (and yes we're aware it's football, not basketball)...but look how well that's turned out for Tony.

The great thing about college basketball is that you can easily find colors of the team you're cheering for. And if you don't care to subscribe to any team...then we say go for (cute) comfort.

On a side note, Eva Longoria is the new rep for Bebe Sport. Sporty? Yes. However, we do NOT recommend you adapt this look for March Madness. Unless you're prone to hot flashes. It probably looks great on Eva...and that's it. Maybe not even. They do wonders with airbrushing these days.

Another note. Face painting. Don't do it huge, and if you're doing letters/numbers, don't use a mirror. Or, you can try the mirror and test out who your true friends are.

Tomorrow we (briefly) explore the NIT and knock-off handbags.

Hot Men Who Know How to Score

So after a thorough and extremely scientific investigation of the high scoring players, we made our picks for the "Better Bracket Bet". We'll reveal the real outcome on Monday. As for tomorrow, get ready for a lesson in March Madness fashion. How to dress for watching the games without looking like a slob or a skank.

A Better Bracket Bet

So maybe your bracket is blowing everyone in your pool out of the water...or maybe not. In any case, the Sweet Sixteen games start this Thursday and if you've already stopped caring about who's going to win (or if you never cared much in the first place), we've created a better (mini) bracket bet for you and your girlfriends because who really care about who wins and loses these things anyway? Oh, right...guys. So, what do we, as girls, care about? That's right, HOT GUYS :) Therefore, in order to make watching Sweet 16 games easier on the eyes, we have created a Mini Bracket of hotness.

Below you will find a bracket with only the Sweet Sixteen teams, and we'd like to note that all the hot men we featured from last week have survived. Now, instead of predicting the winner of each game based on highest score (because that was SO last week), we want you to predict which team will have the hottest scorer.

For example, let's take the match-up between Michigan State and Kansas. Let's say that the game ended with Kalin Lucas scoring 14 points for Michigan State and Sherron Collins scores 17 points for Kansas. Sherron's hotter than Kalin, so Kansas would win (regardless of if they won for real or not). In our game, how they do on a scale of 1 to Brad Pitt is more important than the number of points scored.

Most number of right picks wins. We'd suggest betting a bottle of wine or a round of cosmos with the girls. We'll put up our predictions tomorrow and results next week. So it doesn't always have to be about the games...sometimes a little friendly competition, cosmos and watching ripped men run around are all you need.

Water Cooler Talk - Recapping Rounds 1 & 2

Ok, so, you've made it through the first two rounds, now you're going back to work and must face...the water cooler. Or, at least the proverbial water cooler since, I know we don't have water coolers at our offices.

Anyway, for the most part, the hot guys and even the not-so-hot guys, will be talking about all the highlights and anything noteworthy or weird that happened, so we have decided to dissect two ESPN recap articles. Now, I know ESPN articles can be intimidating, but have no fear, we've marked them up and explained the weirder, sports-geekier things mentioned in each so you can now participate in the water cooler conversations with all of your hot co-workers. And that's the whole point anyway, right?

We'll also give a rundown of the basic upsets during the course of the tournament. Without further ado, the carnage from Rounds 1 and 2:

The Midwest Region was hit hardest:

In round 1
#4 Wake Forest was upset by #13 Cleveland State
#6 West Virginia was upset by #11 Dayton and
#7 Boston College was upset by #10 USC
#8 Ohio State was upset by #9 Siena

The West Region

In round 1
#7 California was upset by #10 Maryland
#8 BYU upset by #9 Texas A&M

The East Region

In round 1
#5 Florida State was upset by #12 Wisconsin (There's your 5-12 upset!)

The South Region

In round 1
#5 Illinois was upset by #12 West Kentucky (another 5-12)
#7 Clemson was upset by #10 Michigan (YAY, but we're not biased)

Round 2 didn't really have any upsets, hence why everyone is talking about a chalk filled Sweet 16 which we will get to when dissecting your articles :)

So, the first article is from ESPN's March to Motown Blog and written by Mark Schlabach. It mostly talks about Sunday's games, but it will help you when reading anything else about the games. You can find the original article here: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/blog/index?entryID=4006995&name=marchmadness

I cut the article off at the end because nothing important occurs on the last page :)



And finally, some bulleted highlights from an article by ESPN sportscaster, Andy Katz. Original article can be found here: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/ncaatourney09/columns/story?columnist=katz_andy&id=4007346



So, you are now fully equipped to trash talk and win, flirt at the water cooler and decipher the geeky sports talk spewed by the Sportscasters. Whew.

And tomorrow, look for something fun to amuse yourself as we head into the Sweet 16 because this is when the guys actually start watching the games :)

Trash Talkin'- To Hate or to Participate

If you've got a good office pool going with a competitive bunch of people (and every office has its own versions of Dwight Schrute and Andy Bernard), there will be trash talking. It's a part of the March Madness office pool culture and it doesn't matter if there's money on the line or just bragging rights- there are some people (and maybe you're one of them) who love to create drama. There are two positions you can find yourself in- on the offense where you're trash talking to somebody, or on the defense, when someone's coming to tell you that your teams are doomed.

Offense: Being a pro-active trash talker is going to be a little tricky if you don't know much about the teams. But it also provides you the perfect opportunity to talk (okay, flirt) with that new guy you've been eyeing. You're going to have to do a little research to do this right, but let's face it, you've been stalking him for the past couple weeks anyway (so what if you know he eats lunch at 12:15pm everyday, has an affinity for cool ranch Doritos and can go for a month without repeating his ties? You're naturally observant). You probably already know who he has winning the championship and any special allegiances he has to any of the teams. Is his college Alma mater in the playoffs? Who are his favorites? Once you've figured that out you need to do a little research. Take a look at the teams he's chosen to make it to the Final Four and the Championship. How've they done in previous years? How about the players? Do any of them buckle under pressure? Hey, no one ever said flirty trash talking was going to be effortless. Next, pick out weak spots in the teams and go for the jugular (uh, playfully of course). For example: "You have Duke winning it all? No way.... Duke's a bunch of chokers, they look like they're going to make it and then they break you heart. Plus, they've lost to both UNC games this year! No reason to think that's going to change, so you might as well pay up right now."

Defense: You'll probably find yourself on the defense more often than the offense. We'd say that the best defense is to turn the tables, but there's only so much you can do if you don't know much about the teams. The best course of action here may be just a generic but defiant "It's still early in the tourney" or a skeptical "Mmmhmm, we'll see about that" with a crafty smile throw in.

In any case, do not get intimidated by trash talking. Put your game face on and embrace it.

Enjoy the games this weekend, whether you're watching them willingly or not! Remember to check back Monday when we'll have a recap of what went down and the teams that have survived to play another day.

Talking the Talk

Ok, so, now that you know about Bracketology, we want you to be able to talk the talk. Let's start with some basics, like what all the lines on the court mean. See diagram below.





Next up: Positions.

There are 5 guys on the court at any one time and you know what else always has 5 guys? Boy Bands. That's right, boy bands. In any given good boy band, there are 5 guys on the stage. I say good so no one gets on me about 98 degrees, etc. Not that I have anything against them either, however, Nsync, Backstreet Boys and New Kids on the Block fit this analogy a little bit better.

So, in a boy band you have 5 positions to be filled:

Really Young Cute Guy, e.g. Joe (NKOTB), Justin (Nsync) and Nick (BBs)

The Actual Main Singer Guy, e.g. JC (Nsync, since Justin's already taken), Jordan (NKOTB) and hmm, Brian (BBs)

Old Guy, e.g. Kris Kirkpatrick (Nsync), Kevin (BBs) and Jon (NKOTB)

Bad Boy, e.g. AJ (BBs), Donnie (NKOTB), hmm Nsync is hard, i'll just stick Joey here, he did dye his hair red

Last but not least, the Quiet One, e.g. Lance (Nsync), Howie (BBs) and Danny (NKOTB - you could argue that Jon also filled this role, however, this is referring to singing and Danny only ever did the deep speaking parts)

Now, on the basketball court you have:

The Point Guard

The Point Guard is most similar to your Actual Main Singer Guy in a boy band because he is the team's best ballhandler, just like the Main Singer Guy is the band's best singer. I'm going to give examples of players in the NBA because it's more likely you've heard of them. Most famous is probably Magic Johnson, current examples are: Jason Kidd, Steve Nash, Chauncey Billups.

The Shooting Guard

The Shooting guard is most like the Young Cute Guy in a boy band because he is the best offensive player and because of that tends to be the team's all star and, let's be honest, the Cute Young Guys on boy bands tend to be the breakout stars. Look no further than Justin Timberlake. Examples of Shooting Guards: Most famous - Michael Jordan, current - Kobe Bryant, Dwayne Wade.

The Small Forward

The name can be deceiving because, typically, they are smaller, but they don't have to be. They're just usually quicker and leaner than power forwards and centers. The Small Forward is most like the Bad Boy in a boy band because the key to a good Small Forward is versatility and Bad Boys, while being bad, can also be pretty good singers and dancers. Examples of Small Forwards: Most famous - Larry Bird and Scottie Pippen, current - LeBron James, Shawn Marion.


The Power Forward

The Power Forward is similar to the Quiet One in a boy band because they tend to be the unsung heroes, playing a large role on defense and since the offensive players get all the glory, just like the main singers do, Power Forwards tend to be a little less audacious. Examples of Power Forwards: Most famous: Charles Barkley, Karl Malone, current - Tim Duncan, Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Garnett


The Center

The Center is most similar to the Old Guy in a boy band because he is often referred to the Big Man and the Old Guy on boy bands are referred to as the big brother and may also be considered a "Big Man". With boy bands this is in reference to their age but in basketball this is literally in reference to their physical size. Typically they are no less than 7'0" in height. Sort of like how, when the boy bands start, the old guy is usually no younger than like, 17 or 18 :) Examples of Centers: Most famous - Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, current - Shaquille O'Neal, Yao Ming, Dwight Howard (LOVE HIM)


Ok, now that you have the positions and the court down, let's get into some lingo. Following is a list with explanations of common terms you'll hear while watching or reading about a basketball game.

The Shot Clock - Failure to attempt a shot that hits the rim within 35 seconds in college baskeball results in loss of possession. A buzzer goes off when the shot clock reaches zero. Think of this as the amount of time a stranger has to impress you. He's got 35 seconds to hit you with something that makes you want to give him your number and if he fails, a buzzer goes off in your head and he's lost posession of your attention :)

The Key also known as The Paint - (see the diagram to locate it on the actual court) This is the critical area on the court, where much of the action takes place in a game. Similar to the VIP area in the club. It's where everyone wants to be, it's a restricted area and you know it's where everything's goin down.

Dribble - traveling with the ball while bouncing it up and down continuously.

Layup - a shot with one hand from a point close to the basket, in which a player shoots the ball toward the basket, often off the backboard. This is a type of shot a player takes and you'll hear it a lot during games. The name refers to the action of "laying the ball in the basket".

Post up - To "post up" is to establish a position in the low post, the area near the basket below the foul line, usually in order to take advantage of a smaller defender. The term refers to the player standing there like a post in the ground. Others who "post up", bouncers outside the club. They are imovable forces preying on the little people.

Jump shot/Jumper - Um, jumping while getting off a shot as opposed to...not jumping :)

Pick, Pick and roll - A pick is also known as a screen and is an offensive/defensive move. The play begins with a defender guarding a ballhandler. The ballhandler moves toward a teammate, who sets a "screen" (or "pick") by standing in the way of the defender, who is separated from the still-moving ballhandler. The defender is forced to choose between guarding the ballhandler or the screener. If the defender tries to guard the ballhandler, then the screener can move toward the basket, sometimes by a foot pivot ("roll"), and is now open for a pass. If the defender chooses instead to guard the screening teammate, then the ballhandler has an open shot. This play is also useful out with your girls at the club. If a sketchy, gross, greasy guy approaches you, have your girlfriend move in and block him from you, then gross guy must decide to either hit on your friend or you. If he chooses to hit on your friend, you're free to get the bouncer to kick this guy out. If he chooses you, then your friend can go get the bouncer :)

Foul - An attempt to unfairly disadvantage an opponent through physical contact. Like when that really hot bad boy, who you know is not good for you, touches your arm and makes you drool a little bit. This is a foul because it puts you at an unfair disadvantage to say no to him through physical contact. Now, there are different types of fouls, they are Personal fouls and Technical fouls.

A Personal is a breach of the rules that concerns illegal personal contact with an opponent and is the most common type of foul in basketball. A Technical is any infraction of the rules penalized as a foul which does not involve physical contact during the course of play between players on the court, or is a foul by a non-player. The most common technical foul is for unsportsmanlike conduct. Technical fouls can be assessed against players, bench personnel, or even the entire team. College players get 5 personal fouls before being fouled out, which means they're out of the game.

Free Throw - Players who are fouled either receive the ball to pass inbounds again, or receive one or more free throws if they are fouled in the act of shooting, depending on whether the shot was successful. Each free throw is worth one point.

3 Point Line - (see diagram) Any basket made by a player who shoots the ball on the outside of the 3 point line scores 3 points for that basket as opposed to two, wich is standard unless it's a free throw (see above).

Glass - another name for the backboard of the basket. Often heard as, off the glass.

Rebound - is the act of successfully gaining possession of the basketball after a missed field goal (this is the technical term for basket) or free throw.

Time outs - Each Team get 4 - 75 second timeouts and 2 - 30 second timeouts for the game.

Traveling - is a violation of the rules that occurs when a player holding the ball illegally moves one or both of his feet. Most commonly, a player travels by illegally moving his pivot foot or taking too many steps without dribbling the ball.

X-Factor - a hard-to-describe influence or quality; an important element with unknown consequences. Often you'll hear commentators talk about the X-factor of a game, meaning who will step up, and the unknowns that could sway the game in a team's favor.

Now that you've got the lingo down, get out there and impress everyone with your new vocabulary. And remember, the terms can work both ways. So next time you're out clubbing with your girlfriends you can be like "Yeah, that guy's shock clock totally hit zero. Let's check out the Key but be ready for a pick and roll".

Tomorrow, we break out the trash talkin'.

Hot Men on Campus

All right, the moment you've all been waiting for, the Hot Men on Campus Post. We've taken some of the top 12 teams, whom we think will be in the tournament at least longer than the 1st and 2nd rounds and chosen whom we think is the hottest guy on each team. Now, the hottness factor is based on a few criteria, first - he has to be one of the best on the team, otherwise you'd never even see them, second - body (arms and legs) and third face :)

Also, we're listing the mascot and colors for each team so you can decipher who's playing who, etc.

Without further ado, the hot guys of the tournament:

Pittsburgh Panthers


Colors: Blue and gold
Hot guy: #45 DeJuan Blair

He's the one on the left in the above pic

DeJuan is 6 feet 7 inches and 265 pounds of yumminess. The blue, gold and white uniforms of the Panthers look good on him and he's got great arms, great legs and plenty of muscle. And you can't go wrong with that face ;) Although he's only a sophomore, he's got NBA potential and is definitely someone to watch during this tournament. Look for him at Forward, see tomorrow's post on positions.



Duke Blue Devils


Colors: Blue and white
Hot Guy: #30 Jon Scheyer




Um, can we say All-American boy? He is 6 feet, 5 inches and 185 pounds of wholesome goodness and as a junior, you don't have to feel like you're robbing the cradle :) So, if you like the long and lanky type, oh and also blue eyes and blonde hair, then keep an eye on this Guard.




North Carolina Tar Heels


Colors: Baby blue and white
#50 Tyler Hansbrough






With a name like Tyler Hansbrough how can he not be handsome. This baby faced Senior plays at Forward and is 6 feet, 9 inches and 250 pounds of pure braun. How could you not like him?



Oklahoma Sooners (dude, it really is a covered wagon, you'd think Oregon would have this mascot)


Colors: Red and White
Hot Guys: #5 Tony Crocker and #32 Taylor Griffin (Taylor's pics are first)








Taylor's on the left. His younger brother, Blake Griffin is on the right




This one was a toss up. Tony Crocker has that young, cute, skinny vibe going on at 6 feet 6 inches and 206 pounds. He's a Junior and looks good in a shirt and tie. Taylor, on the other hand is 6 feet 7 inches and 238 pounds. He has that long, chiseled face that should make every woman swoon ;)



Syracuse Oranges (not kidding, long story about the Orange)


Colors: Um, Orange and a litte bit of white :)
Hot Guy: #11 Paul Harris





This was a tough one, but it was the white under armor pic. Can we say inverted V? Plus, he pulls off orange, which is difficult to do. So, at 6 feet 4 inches and 230 pounds (which can only be muscle), keep an eye on him during the tournament and maybe he'll take his shirt off :) Also, as a sidenote, Syracuse had a rough road on their way to the tournament. They went into 6 over times for a win against Connecticut and then another overtime against West Virginia. We don't know about you, but we think we all like guys who can keep going and going and...



Villanova Wildcats

Colors: Blue and white...again
Hot Guy: #33 Dante Cunningham

Arms shot

We have a weakness for little boy faces and Dante's got one. He's another long and lanky one at 6 feet 8 inches and 230 pounds, plus he's a senior. Yay, not too young. Not that it matters. Oh well.



University of Missouri Tigers

Colors: black and gold
Hot guy: #5 Leo Lyons
Leo is 6ft 9 inches of FINE. He's a Kansas City momma's boy that gets a pep talk from her right before games. Everybody all together now...awwww...... He's also an aspiring musician who writes and performs his own music. An athlete and a musician all in one? What more could a girl want?



University of Kansas Jayhawks
Colors: blue, gray, crimson and yellow. Someone really couldn't just decide on 2 colors?
Hot guy: #54 Matt Kleinmann

Oh, big red, we heart all 6'10, 250 lbs of you. We're not going to lie, we usually wouldn't pick a redhead but we couldn't resist with Matt. Clearly, he's very affectionate and into hugging. We're all up for that. But wait, there's more. In addition to his basketball skills, he's a senior architecture major who's made the honor roll every single year. We LOVE the smart cookies who will be able to design our dream house. Plus, he's got the impishness that reminds us a little of Ron Weasley, uh, but in a non-pedophilic way.


University of Memphis Tigers

Colors: blue and gray
Hot guy: #11 Wesley Witherspoon

With a name like Wesley Witherspoon (and not being related to Reese) you'd think he'd seen his fair share of rough playground days in elementary school. But he's clearly got some serious aerial skills. That's no small feat when you have 6 ft 8 inches and 200 pounds to launch into the air. He's a freshman, so we'll be looking forward to seeing much more of him in the coming years.


University of Connecticut Huskies
Colors: blue and white
Hot guy: #34 Hasheem Thabeet
We have a true cover boy on our hands with Hasheem. He's graced the covers of both Sports Illustrated College Edition and ESPN The Magazine. And ESPN couldn't even fit him on the cover without him ducking his head. That's because when you're 7'4 and 263 lbs (yes, you read that right, SEVEN FOUR) there aren't many places you can go without needing to duck. We may need to add a few more inches to our Manolos...


Michigan State Spartans
Colors: green and white
Hot guy: #15 Durrell Summers

Freshman Durrell has all the qualities of your typical basketball player- the height (6'4), the agility (helped out by his 195 lb frame), the beautiful muscles and leaps that cause crowds to wow in amazement. But unlike the "general studies" majors...Durrell has decided to pick...computer science. Do those two worlds even mesh!?!? Apparently Durrell is out to prove you CAN be a jock and a nerd all at the same time. And we have a secret soft spot for the nerdy guys. Oh wait, but he's also beautiful. Did we mention that? This may be the trifecta.


University of Louisville Cardinals
Colors: red and black
Hot guy: #20 Will Scott

Does this one really need an explanation?! At 6'3 and 185 lbs, Will Scott is delicious. He left the Ivies for Louisville and it looks like it suits him just fine. Will comes from a sports family- both his mom and dad are doctors for the WNBA Liberty and the NY Knicks, respectively. We also know that he's scared of the dark. Don't worry Will, we'll come over to protect you any time you want...

So there you have it! Your eye candy for March Madness. Keep a look out for them if you happen to be watching the games. Just don't get carried away with the drool. It can get to be quite embarassing.
