"TheStarterWife" is the nome de plume for writer and rambler, Sarah Sprague. Taken from the title of a Gigi Levangie Grazer novel, "TheStarterWife" ended up having a much bigger online presence than Sarah ever expected thanks to Ladies... and too much time spent on various Gawker Media sites.
Such a hard, hard bracket… hmmm… how to decide…
PITTSBURGH SPORTS AND MINI PONIES FOR EVER!!!!! HE HAS MINI-PONIES!

MINI PONIES 4 LIFE!!!111

I protest RedSoxStatsGuy being seeded against Kevin. They’re both so hot!
Also: McBain from Flyers Fieldhouse looks A LOT like Michael Barrett. And that is a very good thing.
Texas Gal said this on June 6, 2007 at 4:16 am |
Yeah, that 10-13 match up is a fucking bitch to decide.
TheStarterWife said this on June 6, 2007 at 4:47 am |
And “You’ve Been Blinded” was a fucking genius for wearing eyeblack.
TheStarterWife said this on June 6, 2007 at 4:52 am |
thank you ladies for the 4 seed and for the genius remark.. both are probably better than i deserve.. people, if you love your country, go vote for YBB right now.
HG said this on June 6, 2007 at 4:56 am |
If I had to pick based on photos, right now, it’s Red Sox Stats Guy, all the way to the finals. But the EYE BLACK. Oh, YBB. Masterful.
Holly said this on June 6, 2007 at 5:01 am |
Eye black = IT. Game over.
Texas Gal said this on June 6, 2007 at 5:04 am |

DougOLis said this on June 6, 2007 at 5:41 am |
I don’t know where to post general questions so I’m going here because hey it’s the NL West and it’s also Will’s side of the bracket. Did Mottram and Ufford really not enter? Were they too proud? Is this below them?
DougOLis said this on June 6, 2007 at 5:44 am |
Shit. I’m up against an Alabama fan, who is probably tailgating with a crew of 2,000 for the event. I need a miracle.
McBain said this on June 6, 2007 at 7:07 am |
Discovery I have made while making my votes: I am a sucker for pictures of dudes with small children. I have no desire for my own children! I find them sort of annoying and sticky (children, that is), and yet? Pictures of dudes holding babies or with their kids or whatever? I just sort of go “awwww.” weeeeeird.
In further and unrelated news: Texas Gal! Having returned from a game in which I sat in the left field bleachers: Dellucci’s pants are a bit too baggy these days to properly judge the sweetness of his bum. Also, he doesn’t lean over and stick his butt out enough.
Ang said this on June 6, 2007 at 7:11 am |
Thanks! I’m honored to get the 5 seed, and was pleasantly shocked at the attention given me at Barney’s Beanery. I didn’t want to mention anything until the brackets came out, to avoid jinxing myself.
This is terrifying.
tcmcg said this on June 6, 2007 at 7:19 am |
I think 289 will be a surprising #12 seed. That picture alone, woo woo.
ladyandrea said this on June 6, 2007 at 8:04 am |
I’m just happy I’m in the bracket. I feel like I won my small conferences tournament and will be out of here by Friday morning.
By the way, as the regions aren’t powers of 2, how will they be condensed as you approach the end?
Yostal said this on June 6, 2007 at 8:07 am |
TC, the picture of you in Picasso at the Lapin Agile did it for me, the theatre dork.

Woo hoo, theatre dorks! Spelling it with an “re,” because not only are we dorks, we’re elitist dorks.

So, Deadspin DOES EQUAL Duke. Hahah.
Can’t wait for MJD & Daulerio’s triumphal romp thru Vegas to celebrate their benefactor’s (overall?) #1 seed. It will put Thompson & Acosta’s to shame. Just, gentlemen, no pink eye. Don’t. Get. Pink. Eye.
Disco Stu said this on June 6, 2007 at 8:54 am |
This is completely unfair, by the way. I have actual work to do today, but can’t seem to concentrate long enough to get anything done without refreshing the score. Can we get a estimate on how many dollars this is costing the U.S. in terms of productivity? I’m no mathematician, but I’m guessing eleventy billion.
Googling “rigging internet polls”….
McBain said this on June 6, 2007 at 8:56 am |
289 doesn’t really write he just comments, photoshops, and takes pictures. That said. I voted for him cause he’s f’ing awesome.
MDG said this on June 6, 2007 at 9:40 am |
@MDG: The Sheffield photoshop from a few days ago was enough on its own to get my vote.

You know, upon further review, of all of the dumb things I have done in my life, picking an entry where I go after SEC football to some extent may be in the top five for really dumb. Oh and going after Tennessee in a parenthetical. Honestly, at this point, it’s a miracle I made the bracket at all.
Yostal said this on June 6, 2007 at 10:41 am |
Oh, Yostal. Of all the guys I was not allowed to throw ouf of the bracket, you’re my favorite.

I’ve been wondering for a month why you bloggers would put yourself through this. Now I know. Ladies… you did an amazing job with this and it’s clear you put in a lot of hard work. Kudos to all of you because it’s already a success, just like everything else you do.
jebushchrist said this on June 6, 2007 at 11:46 am |
A 20 seed. And up against a Greg Grunberg clone. I knew I wasn’t going to come close to winning this, but damn…
Between this and the boys at AOL ignoring my emails and practically refusing to put my mugshot on the FanHouse, I am feeling seriously unloved today. I want to crawl into a hole, play an endless loop of The Cure’s Disintegration, and gorge myself on Chunky Monkey all afternoon…
Dave's Football Blog said this on June 6, 2007 at 11:49 am |

Elric VIII Emperor of Melnibone said this on June 6, 2007 at 11:53 am |
Dave, don’t feel bad: I like your blog. You gave us one of our very early links! Even though we decided to write about professional backyard football with silly rules.
Besides, the NL West seems to be the Region of Death. Hm. I wonder if that was on purpose. Seriously, between 289’s best photo in the bracket, Will’s 1-seed juggernaut and the eye-black, I’m just going to have to put my head down and hope that people like artsy, thoughtful types.
tcmcg said this on June 6, 2007 at 11:56 am |
My only request is that if I somehow survive the first round, I can change my selected photo. PLEASE?!?! Is that pheasible? I propose that every contestant should have a new photo for round two…add some excitement & new blood, no?
shorty1321 said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:00 pm |
Hahahaha Greg Grunberg??? I love his work on Heros and Malibu’s Most Wanted, but that’s a first. I had one group of girls in college think I looked like Jason Lee.
What am I going to argue?
awfulannouncing said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:03 pm |
So, Deadspin DOES EQUAL Duke.
I guess that means I’m entitled to vote for Will then. Of course he’ll be going out in the round of 16 and everyone around the country will collectively cheer.
Man, I got some issues with my own team.

tragedy…I’d rather be in the NIT then given such disrespect.
Stanz said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:28 pm |
SA, I don’t think Deadspin wants to be Duke this year, although the Ghosts of Wayne Fontes may like that. (Of course, Duke fans and haters alike can get back to their regularly scheduled Duke obsession next year). But I have to laugh at the photo of Will Leitch in Siberian exile after one too many underhanded attempts to throw ESPN under the bus. It no doubt was taken after his literary agent said “Will, send me ONE stinkin’ picture that doesn’t make you look pasty or has no Cardinals regalia! You have to have ONE of those! Just ONE! Then, of course, the photographer figured out that the only thing that made Will look less pasty was adding a snowy white backdrop.
mcbias said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:31 pm |
Well, I hate Duke and sure as hell the St. Louis Cardinals…so.
Stanz said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:33 pm |
and of course, I wasn’t about to hire a photographer for a photo shoot with fake back drops. I’m not quite on par to have a portfolio…just yet.
Stanz said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:35 pm |
That made me laugh out loud Stanz. The trash-talking has begunuth!
awfulannouncing said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:38 pm |
Mcbias, and yet he still has the STL hat on. I’m chalking it up to a skill now. And I would liken Deadspin to the Duke of old. The ones that actually deserved their 1-seeds.
Ah Stanz, you never know when you’ll be VCU.
SA said this on June 6, 2007 at 12:53 pm |
Yeah, being seeded as VCU is comical. Can’t even give any creedence to that seeding. I feel like ‘Sheed…just a complete injustice aimed at me…all the time.
Stanz said this on June 6, 2007 at 1:05 pm |
Stanz – Can I get a “both teams played hard” from you?
Elric VIII Emperor of Melnibone said this on June 6, 2007 at 1:06 pm |
Stanz – We’re sorry that you are not happy with your seeding.
BTW – Did we tell you that we were also drunk and had a couple of miscounts?
TheStarterWife said this on June 6, 2007 at 1:10 pm |
Stanz—believe me, I’m a fan, but the thing about brackets is that someone had to go against Leitch. You’ve got the worst draw of anyone. Rotten luck, man.
May we comfort you? If you know what we mean?
Holly said this on June 6, 2007 at 1:14 pm |
You mean Holly’s gonna tie him the bed and read Walt Whitman to him?
Dave's Football Blog said this on June 6, 2007 at 1:18 pm |
There are no hard feelings…both teams played hard my man.
I’d actually rather go against Leitch. I mean ya’ll gotta protect the Stars. Could I just arm wrestle Leitch for the assured “W” though?
Stanz said this on June 6, 2007 at 1:29 pm |
The nice thing is – Will has not directly used his powers against Stanz. No “vote for me” on Deadspin today.

Wrap the base of the bottle in a towel. Hold the bottle horizontally and firmly and rhythmically pound it against the wall (base-first, of course). If you do it right, the cork will eventually come out far enough and you can pull it out. I was skeptical at first, but it worked.

While I won’t argue the excitement level of Indiana unless you love corn, soybeans and the spectacular awesomeness that is Gary (Wait, what?), we do currently have LadyAndrea so we have that going for us.

Oh well, to make it even better, our brilliant (rolling eyes) governor sold that toll road to a group of foreign investors. So that lovely stretch of nothing isn’t even Indiana anymore. So I’ll let your hatred of I-90 slide, I don’t like it either.

Been there, done that, Dan L.; scroll up. You were the second victim, err, subject of my posters.

Hope McBias never, ever finds a picture of me.
TheStarterWife said this on June 8, 2007 at 1:34 am |
Haha, my bad, MCB. At least you went sort of easy on me.
Dan L said this on June 8, 2007 at 2:36 am |
A #22 beating a #1 would be so awesome. It’s like the NCAA basketball tournament, but my vote can completely screw the masses!

Thanks mcbias – it’s good to know someone actually reads my posts. Your posters are brilliant!
@ Texas Gal – I appreciate the compliment, but I can understand if your ballot went with your beloved Sawx.
@ Red Sox Stats Guy – I can’t hold the Chief’s jock huh? Of course I can; laundry is one my duties as assistant editor.

@ Clare – Not a whole lot. I read recaps, but I don’t post for fear of being sent to the TWoP Siberia. But they were having the contest in the middle of the summer last year and it was make your own Television Motivational Poster, and they even had the tool for Flickr, so I ended up making about 3 dozen of them, some of which were very well received.

Hey, I just realized, I may be the only person in the tournament who actually was in the same collegiate graduating class as one of the athletes in the banner!
Michigan Class of 2000 baby!

DeBruin – I actually read With Leather every weekend and enjoy it thoroughly. I was just talking smack. No offense intended.

MCB, if you’re around this morning…I updated my list. Ch-ch-check it.

I was in the same school as Brett Favre….The School of Hard Knocks!
That was bad, but once I type anything I have to hit submit.

Wow, AA, that is almost as bad as Mid-Major basketball announcers who go completely over the top when some sort of amazing last-second shot goes in during the NCAA tournament. Talk about awful announcing! Not that I would know anything about that…

Dude. Do not talk about that on here. You lookin’ to get punched?

Sorry Andrea. Won’t happen again. Please don’t get the whip back out.

I deserved that…..entirely.

Don’t you people have jobs? You disgust me, you lazy asses.
Unless you make a living by blogging. Then I worship you.

This poll makes me feel like Paris Hilton: I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, I haven’t shaved or worked all week. I looked out my window a few hours ago and there were 3 dozen paparazzi out there waiting for me and 2 helicoptors circling overhead. I don’t dare go to TMZ to see what they’re saying about me or what they have for pictures. A cameraman snuck in through my back balcony earlier and snapped a picture of me in my boxers sitting at my computer, reloading the poll. He ran away screaming.
4 votes separate me from DeBruin and I keep reloading it every second. It’s killing me!
Red Sox Stats Guy said this on June 8, 2007 at 8:12 pm |
TMZ finally posted the story…

A vote for DeBruin is a vote against adorable children.
Holly said this on June 9, 2007 at 12:34 pm |
I’m just saying.
Holly said this on June 9, 2007 at 12:35 pm |
And I’m 2 votes behind with 9 hours to go… this has got to be the closest matchup of them all.
Red Sox Stats Guy said this on June 9, 2007 at 12:59 pm |
You’re tell me. Should we get you some cupcakes to you can ride this tension out?

I never imagined a Manning Family Reunion blogger would make it to the wire in a first round matchup (since the blog died roughly 3 months after inception…8 months ago). Clearly I should have submitted a drunken photo.

Does anyone have, um, like, 140 votes they’re not using?

Yup, I hereby withdraw from the competition and give all my votes to the bloggerific Matthew Sussman.

I agree with above statement. (500 votes in 15 minutes)
Should be interesting to see what happens in the 2nd round. Ballot stuffing vs Kentucky … now there’s some drama.
