PrintHere's your full schedule of events followed by what will take place should each contest go Louisville's way.
Friday
5:30 p.m. - VOLLEYBALL: Louisville vs. Ball State (NCAA Tournament, First Round)
My belt's unbuckled and I'm a little bit tipsy.
9:00 p.m. - MEN'S BASKETBALL: No. 6 Louisville vs. No. 20 Vanderbilt (ESPN)
Hammered. Pants are at my ankles and I'm waddling around the arena constantly making that arm motion you make when you want a truck to honk.
Saturday
Noon - FOOTBALL: Connecticut at Cincinnati (A Husky win sends Louisville to the BCS) (ESPN)
I didn't sleep last night. This is a fact I'm completely unaware of. I've been attempting to start a "We Want 'Bama" chant at a near-empty Moby Dick for the past 25 minutes. I haven't seen my pants in 13 hours.
7:00 p.m. - MEN'S SOCCER: Louisville vs. UCLA (NCAA Tournament Elite Eight)
I have no idea who dressed or drove me, but I made it to the game and now I'm celebrating on the field. Colin Rolfe seeks me out and tells me we have to hang sometime. A number exchange takes place at some point. I'm wearing someone else's pants. They fit well.
Just as I decide it's probably time to get some sleep, someone tells me that the volleyball team upset No. 5 Purdue in the second round. All of us are heading to an establishment that serves. I'm not positive but I think I can hear my Chase card crying.
Sunday
1:00 p.m. - WOMEN'S BASKETBALL: No. 10 Louisville at No. 12 Kentucky
I wake up in my own bed and I'm completely sober. I check the lap top and apparently I penned the greatest post in the history of the Internet at some point between 3 and 6 a.m. My email alerts me to the fact that I've offered the positions of Louisville Mayor and President of ESPN. Not an issue. Multi-tasking has always been a strength. Check the resume.
I watch Louisville beat Kentucky by 40 as I make plans for New Year's in Miami.
I can't even spell pants.

Soo
I’ll be working the Vandy game tonight and the soccer game tomorrow.. I’ll be looking for a pantsless crazy man and offer you my UofL sweat pants LOL
I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
wear spandex underneath your pants...
problem solved.
I see my weekend being similarly awesome
except tomorrow afternoon I’m holding my toddler’s arms in the shape of a C, and yelling “do it!” She thinks its a hilarious game about the alphabet and keeps yelling “letters!” at the end instead of “Cards!” I have no idea why this is happening. My wife is in the kitchen preparing divorce papers. Good times had by all.

Know why divorce is so expensive?
Because it’s worth it.
Just kidding, but a staff sergeant told me that one once and I’ve never forgotten it.
I am considering going to the Soccer game tomorrow, I get off of work at 6 but live right by campus.
What is the alcohol situation at Soccer games?
by James Sutherland on Dec 2, 2011 12:49 PM EST via mobile reply actions
I don't think they sell it at all.
That is especially true of NCAA tournament games.
I heard it's easy to BYO, if tactically done.

ok
Soccer does not sell alcohol, but you can sneak it in incognito. Just dont be like the one guy I think at the Rutgers soccer game who got tossed out because his dumbass brought a double deuce of Beast in and didnt put it in a different container.. You can bring in outside coke bottles, mcdonalds drink cups, you see where I am going with this LOL…
I am done with my graceless heart

Well I am not a drinker, but I can tell you what I have seen.
I went to the UCLA game opener and sat on the wall between the gas station by 65 and the volleyball court. Buy a case of beer at Baders at a 200% mark up and get happy in the grass.
This is a good idea. I could even bring my own chair.

Actually
alot of people do that I mean you can sit on the Arthur St side and see everything with your own chair and beverages
I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
I'm so excited about this weekend.
I have a meeting in 10 minutes, and there’s absolutely no chance of me sitting through it without standing on the table and starting a CARDS cheer. I may very well be looking for a new job on Monday.

I found a volleyball stream
http://www.purduesports.com/allaccess/?media=286050
yeah, it says Purdue. The game is at Purdue. It’s Louisville vs. Ball State.

Just in time to see the final score.
Louisville wins in two sets. I think the final was 25-22, 25-15.
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."
- Rick Pitino
or maybe there was a third set which Louisville also won 25-20.
I thought I heard the announcer say something that ended on “25-15” though.
Anyway, we won in straight sets.
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."

How are you going to Watch the Lady Cards kill UK?
According to www.uoflsports.com the game isn’t on TV. Do you know something they don’t?
One down, five to go
Louisville volleyball advances in straight sets. Next up: Beat Vandy!
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."
- Rick Pitino
Two down
Volleyball I: check
Men’s basketball: check
Go UConn!
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."
- Rick Pitino
OK, two out of three
We really had no control over that one. Soccer is tied at the half, so there’s still that.
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."
- Rick Pitino
0-1 in double overtime
Cards looked awful in both overtimes. They didn’t deserve to win this one.
Last I heard, volleyball had evened their match at 1 set each.
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."
- Rick Pitino
Volleyball II - lost 1-3
Oh well. Maybe the women’s basketball team can salvage the weekend.
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."

I came over here to troll a bit, but I am stunned!
Am I correctly seeing this? You are game threading Volleyball?
Please tell me the players are your GF’s and you have to do this! :-)
Proud of your offense? Manny badger don't give a shit!
What, you don't like watching girls in shorts jumping around?
Seriously, volleyball (men’s or women’s) is a very entertaining sport.
"...and the present, for us, is something that we really look forward to."

Also
If there were intercollegiate tiddlywinks, I’d still root for the Cardinals.

"chess in a blizzard with NC implications..."
I’m in the snow with them, bare chested and barefoot.
GO! CARDS!
BEAT!
PURDUE!
I'm catching up...

GO! CARDS!
BEAT!
PURDUE!

Proud of your offense? Manny badger don't give a shit!
