Man, that was horrible.  Just horrible.

Here's what you need to know:

The Hawks were bad.  They were lazy on their assignments and constantly let the Stars get behind them for odd man breaks.

Core Crawford wasn't terrible, but wasn't good enough.  Marty Turco took over early in the 2nd period, and was okay but treated us to a Turco moment in the 3rd period when he decided ranged far out of the net to try and make a long pass that went right into Jason Williams' hand and then into the back of the net.

Stupidity.  Lots of it.  My favorite moment may have been when, with the Hawks down 3 goals, Tomas Vincour took a double minor for high sticking.  Less than 30 seconds later, Ducan Keith was called for a blatant charge in the defensive zone and the that would about do it. 

I don't have anything else to say about this one.  The Hawks needed a win, and they played one of their worst games of the season.

Anyway, in celebration of the start of the NCAA Tournament, it turns out that we are legally required to post some sort of hilarious parody of a tournament bracket which pits celebrities,  concepts and inanimate objects against each other.  Why?  Because we'll lose our blogger's license if we don't.  Also, I stopped watching the game and just started jotting down random shit that jumped into my brain.
