Metaphors for chances that we have in the Big 12 Mens BB tournament

**theshadow** · 03-09-2008, 03:23 PM

...as much chance as a one-legged man at an [arse]-kicking contest.

We can win if Brittany can clean up her act.

If Obama can win in Wyoming, we can in in rhe Big 12.

If Hillary wins without pulling some fast ones, we ceratinly cn make hay in KC.

The only thing we have to worry about for the Big 12, is fear itself and our shooting.

Same chance Kelvin Sampson does at running a clean program.

**Wesley** · 03-09-2008, 03:29 PM

Our chances are about as good as a box of chocalates have at a ladies' sewing bee.

Like the Sands of Time, the spring football game will come faster than we ever expect.
We have about as good of chance of making the NCAAas a bag of marshmallows have from not melting in the streets of Baghdad.

We can take the next 9 games because we have matured, we are paying well, we have a nose for the ball, and the refs love us and we are Iowa State.

We could wish in one hand and crap in the other...see which one fills up first.

About the same as Mike Tyson passing an english exam.

Oh come now, our chances are at least double that..... let's not be that hard on the Cyclones.

The only problem is that was the Jim Carrey character.

It would take 10 games to win the National Championship, 4 in the Big 12, and 6 in the NCAA's

As for the "you're telling me there's a chance" - It was Jim Carey, not Jeff Daniels.

I'd go out on a limb and say our chances are 1 in 12?

Unfortunately, I'm not thinking the oddsmakers in Vegas go off simple statistical logic

I can dream can't I? I do agree that 1/12 is a little too much of the Cy-Aid

It might even be 11 games for a National Title when I think about it. What seed would we even get if we made it to the NCAA's? Would we be as low as the play in game? I'd guess a 13 seed, but who knows.

Best demonstrated by a picture of Slim Whitman (country singer selling albums on late nite TV a long time ago) holding a bottle of cheap wine. i.e. Slim and (blue) nun.
