Happy Sweet Sixteen day everyone!  Coincidentally, this is also Happy S&F Movieology Day too.  So, while you’re preparing to get your college hoops on tonight, you can get your Movieology on in the meantime.  Here’s tonight’s hoops schedule again:

We’ve got a bunch of links to pass on along with our daily wrap-up of the S&F happenings so let’s get to it.

I unlocked the doors this morning and got you guys some links in The Morning After.

Then, Sparty spanked Jason Whitlock for a minute for being a waffler.

GatorTrey followed up the spanking with a 2009 season preview of the Tampa Bay Rays.

We opened up the Movieology First Round next.  Check out the contenders and get your votes in.  Don’t forget, polling closes at midnight tonight so just in case you haven’t done your duty as a citizen of the blogoshpere and need a quick linky or two, here you go:

BASEBALL REGIONAL VOTING
BASKETBALL REGIONAL VOTING
FOOTBALL REGIONAL VOTING
OTHERS REGIONAL VOTING

Studs & Duds was pre-empted by all the Movieology bizness that was going on.   But, GITC was still kind enough to run his formula and spit out some results for us.  Here’s your S&D’s from last night’s action in The Association:

And, last night’s Top Ten NBA plays:

Speaking of studs, Lebron reached the 2000-point mark for the forth time.  Kareem territory…

The MLB PA is proposing a Manny provision? 

Have you been itching for a preview of tonight’s NCAA tourney action?  Well then, I’ve got the perfect anti-itch ointment for you!

Is there a loophole in the rules for college football graduate assistants?  If so, we should keep an eye on Lane Kiffin, I’m sure he’ll try to exploit it.

So, Tony Kornheiser clowned on Matt Lauer for hitting a deer…while riding his bike.  Very clown-able circumstances to me.  At any rate, they hugged it out this morning.

In response to Julian Tavarez’ analogy, legendary S&F author Patphish had this to say:

My Jets are Marilyn Monroe, hot 40 years ago, dead ever since.

Forgot to include this – they finally got Fetch.
