The Husky NCAA Tournament train rolls on to round two. Those who picked Mississippi State as their upset special have literally had their brackets thrown to the wolves.

It’s the best thirty-six hours of the year, and for Husky fans the two most stressful will start around 2 p.m. when #4-seed UDub faces #13-seed Mississippi State down in Portland.

With none of the excitement of the NCAA Tournament, and probably half of the NIT Tournament, the Huskies will open play in the first round of the inaugural CBI Tournament tonight at Hec Ed.

Geraldine Ferraro, who claims that a black guy named Barack Obama has an advantage in running for president in America, something pretty similar to what she said about Jesse Jackson in 1988, was reluctantly shit-canned by the Clinton campaign. Presumably for not being negative enough. Luckily for us, Ferraro is a huge Husky basketball fan and agreed to share her thoughts on UDub's opening round loss 84-81 loss to Cal in the Pac Ten Tournament.

As we wrote earlier, the Huskies play Cal-Berkeley tonight in the first round of the Pac Ten Tournament. They'll be doing it without an injured Jon Brockman, seen by many as the team's best player. However, is he any good?

Today Seattlest welcomes our new sports correspondent to the fold. Drew Milam is a longtime Seattle resident who recently returned to the Emerald City after some time in the Bay Area, and claims to be super tight with fellow Santa Clara alum Steve Nash, Brandi Chastain and NFL referee Mike Carey. No word on if he got the gig because he is a Hillary supporter (pleasing Editor Kim) and a Garfield alum (pleasing Seattlest David).

Strong defense and Justin Dentmon stepping up late in the second half gave the Huskies their fourth straight win against the Bruins in Hec-Ed, and Seattlest its second great sports moment of 2008.

Last time we checked in on Shawn Kemp, Jr., he was a 6-7 wingman considered a fairly decent prospect in Georgia.

This, honest to God, is what we would do if we won the lottery: We would purchase a Portuguese League basketball team and stock it with former Washington Huskies.

For the second year in a row, a legendary coach has ended his career with a loss at Qwest Field.

It's got Pirelli tires, modified exhaust, custom paint, and the driver's side once held the actual ass of an NBA player.

If those dirty hippies in the Bay Area wont help support our Super Bowl bound Seahawks then we will have to do the next best thing and demolish their college basketball teams. Well, in actuality the next best thing would be to go on the radio and praise the idea of an Al-Qaeda attack on San Francisco, but we're not shit-bat insane.
