The Sigma Pi fraternity chapter at University of Central Florida has been suspended after a stunt performed by pledges caused a building to be evacuated.  The evacuation lasted longer than an hour.

According to UCF, two Sigma Pi fraternity pledges entered a classroom in the Business Administration 1 building about 10:30 a.m. local time on Wednesday, February 28.  One of the pledges wearing a Miami Heat Lebron James jersey tossed white powder in the air. The police report states that the student stood up in class and shouted, “I’m taking my talents to South Beach!”

Reports indicate that the prank carried out by the pledges was a tradition of the Sigma Pi fraternity that had been completed by other “brothers” in the past. It was also uncovered that members of the Sigma Pi leadership had coached the pledges into being deceitful in their interviews with law enforcement officers.

The white substance was later revealed to be baby powder.

via Orlando Sentinel:

According to the report, the powder landed on several students in the classroom. The second pledge was recording the powder toss with his phone, investigators said. Both young men fled the classroom.

“None of the students or the professor knew these individuals or what was happening,” the report said.

The building — a major classroom building at UCF, which houses the university’s accounting and finance departments, among other programs — was evacuated as police and hazmat crews investigated. Testing determined the powder wasn’t dangerous.

According to the university’s police department, the names of the two UCF students involved were redacted due to FERPA.

Michael Shannon’s Oscars Watch Party Was Better Than Yours

He may not have been nominated this year, but Michael Shannon probably enjoyed Oscar night as much as anybody else.

On March 4th, the 90th Annual Academy Awards aired. The movie The Shape of Water directed by Mexican director Guillermo Del Toro cleaned up, taking home the awards for Best Director, Best Original Score, Best Production Design and, finally, Best Picture. The film was also nominated for seven other awards.

The Shape of Water starred Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins, Doug Jones, Michael Stuhlbarg and Octavia Spencer. The movie tells the story of a secret government lab that houses an aquatic fish-man and the mute maid, played by Hawkins, that eventually befriends and falls in love with the fish-man. Yes, the plot sounds a little bit strange, but when you’re watching a Del Toro movie, you’re bound to encounter films with storylines like this.

Much of the cast was in attendance at the Oscars ceremony to help celebrate the movie’s achievements. One notable absence was Shannon, who plays the movie’s villain. Shannon was in a Chicago dive bar, the Old Town Ale House, watching the ceremony on mute on a small TV just above the bar. The bar is well known amongst those in the performing community in Chicago, as it is located near some of the city’s theatres and comedy clubs. Shannon is currently in Chicago directing a play and was thus unable to attend the Oscars this year.

There is something to be said for enjoying a ceremony like the Oscars by yourself. No distractions, no fuss, just you and a TV screen, watching the best movies of the year get the awards they deserve.

Shannon’s performance in The Shape of Water earned rave reviews, deservedly so, but let’s make sure another brilliant performance of his doesn’t get lost in the shuffle.

Before WWE Fastlane this Sunday, the superstars of SmackDown Live will make one last stop in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Tonight’s show will feature a battle between old foes as “The Modern Day Maharaja” Jinder Mahal crosses paths with “The Viper” Randy Orton. If Mahal wins this match, he may be injected into the United States Championship match at Fastlane. U.S. Champion Bobby Roode will definitely be watching this one.

Another big match going into tonight involves “The Show Off” Dolph Ziggler looking horns with “The Phenomenal” WWE Champion AJ Styles. Before the big six-pack challenge on Sunday, can “The Show Off” steal the show and the win right from under the phenomenal one? Styles lost last week’s non-title match against John Cena. Can the WWE Champion really afford another loss going into Sunday’s pay-per-view?

By the way, John Cena isn’t advertised for tonight’s show. Bummer, huh? I wonder how WWE is going to sell Fastlane this Sunday with one of their top performers at the pay-per-view sitting out for tonight’s go-home show?

Becky Lynch is also looking to brawl tonight as she sets her sights on “Ms. Money In The Bank” Carmella. Will Lynch disarm the up-and-coming Carmella? Or will “The Queen of Staten Island” Carmella come out victorious against a certified “Irish Lass Kicker”?

Neymar Has A Broken Toe & A Losing Team, But At Least His Girlfriend Is A Hall Of Fame Smoke

Neymar Jr. has had a rough couple of weeks.

First, he broke his toe in a meaningless Ligue 1 game, putting his World Cup status in doubt. Then, as he sat at home watching, his PSG teammates lost at home to Real Madrid, crashing out of the Champions League way earlier then expected. Needless to say, it hasn’t necessarily been a dream start to 2018 for the supposed third best soccer player in the world.

That said, no matter how underachieving both he and his team may be, Neymar still gets to go home to the lovely Bruna Marquezine.

Bruna Marquezine, born August 4, 1995, is a Brazilian actress and model known for dating soccer superstar Neymar Jr.

Born in Duque de Caxias, Rio de Janeiro. Marquezine, whose birth name is Bruna Reis Maia, was born in Duque de Caxias. She adopted the surname Marquezine as a tribute to her grandmother.

Marquezine began acting in 2003 when she appeared on the soap opera Mulheres Apaixonadas. In 2011, she participated in Aquele Beijo playing a major role, Miss Belezinha. Played the character Lurdinha in the plot of prime time Salve Jorge in 2012. In 2013, she was tipped to star in Além do Horizonte.

For our sake, let’s hope Neymar plays in the World Cup — at least this way we’ll get to see more of Marquezine.

This is Hilary Knight, hockey player, badass and all-around beauty.

Knight is an American Ice Hockey player and one of the leaders of the US Women’s National Hockey team. She’s also played in the Canadien Women’s Hockey League for the Boston Blades and in the National Women’s Hockey League for the Boston Pride.

Knight was born in Palo Alto, California but spent the majority of her childhood in Lake Forest, Illinois. It was there where she developed her love of hockey.

She began to get on everyone’s radar during her Freshmen year at the University of Wisconsin when she finished second on the team in goals and fifth in assists and other areas as well. Over the course of her career at Wisconsin, she killed it and was named to the US Olympic team for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, where she helped the women earn the silver medal. She would make the team again in 2014, again winning the silver. Finally, in 2018 in Pyeongchang, South Korea, the US women would take home the gold medal, thanks in no small part to the play of Knight.

Oh, and she also made her official SNL debut on March 3rd, so a future in show business isn’t entirely out of the question.

So, not only is she a great hockey player, but she’s beautiful to boot. Knight embodies the “girl next door” motif, one that you could hang out with and bring home to mom one day.

As college fans prep themselves for another season of March Madness fun, we’ll take a look back at last year’s epic tournament. Only the cream of the crop in college basketball were able to earn a spot in the 2017 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Tournament.

A total of 68 teams out of 336 were selected to compete in four weeks of March Madness. From March 14 to April 3, the battle lines were drawn, as the best in college basketball competed for the right to be called that year’s March Madness champions. But out of all the teams who qualified who won this distinction this year? Who won the 2017 March Madness Tournament?

In early April 2017, the final four teams battled it out to determine the March Madness winner. The four teams were the Gonzaga Bulldogs, the North Carolina Tar Heels, the Oregon Ducks, and the South Carolina Gamecocks. Let’s take a look at how the final four played out…

March Madness 2017 Final Four

  • Gonzaga Bulldogs defeat South Carolina Gamecocks, with a score of 77-73
  • North Carolina Tar Heels defeat Oregon Ducks, with a score of 77-76
  • North Carolina Tar Heels defeat Gonzaga Bulldogs, with a score of 71-65

North Carolina Tar Heels won March Madness 2017

The Tar Heels was a team on a mission right out of the gate at March Madness. They exerted dominance early on in the tournament, easily knocking off the Texan Southern Tigers with a score of 103 to 64 in the first game of the series. They continued to plow through the South Regional division all throughout March, taking out teams such as Arkansas (72-65), Butler (92-80), and Kentucky (75-73).

North Carolina almost got knocked out of the final four in a close game against Oregon. The Tar Heels only narrowly defeated the Ducks, with a score of 77-76.

The Tar Heels moved onto the finals to face off against a team of hungry Bulldogs. On April 3rd, North Carolina reigned supreme, defeating Gonzaga in the National Championship Game to become the 2017 March Madness champions.

Lambda Chi Alpha At The University Of Arkansas Accused Of Voyeurism

The Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity is being accused of taking sexually explicit photographs taken without consent before distributing them via email.

According to the lawsuit, an unidentified is woman suing the national Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity organization and the school’s chapter, Gamma Chi Zeta of Lambda Chi Alpha. Court documents state the allegations by “Jane Doe” are “of a highly sensitive and personal matter” and that there “is a high risk of retaliatory harm.”

The lawsuit says that the Lambda Chi Alpha president “did not inform the members to delete the email chain or photos; nor did he instruct them to cease the internal derogatory commentary being made.”

via NWA Online:

“A crowd of people, members and non-members alike, converged in the bathroom as Jane Doe and the Associate Member were locked in the bathroom stall,” the lawsuit states, adding that many “are believed to have taken photographs and video.”

The lawsuit states the “Picture Pledge” was one of several pledges with tasks, though the lawsuit also notes that fraternity members denied to the university that there was such a thing as a “Picture Pledge.” The lawsuit faults the fraternity for inaction in having “failed to implement enforcement policies and procedures that ensured compliance with their stated rules prohibiting hazing.”

The “Picture Pledge,” according to the lawsuit, “reached his phone over the locked stall door and, without the consent or knowledge of Jane Doe took multiple photographs of Jane Doe and the Associate Member engaged in explicit sexual conduct.”

Later, after the photos were distributed to the “Arkansas LCA Gmail list-serv,” the “Arkansas LCA President,” according to the lawsuit, sent a message: “This picture is not to be sent to your friends or to get out on social media at all. Period.”

The suit claims that Jane Doe has lost an educational opportunity, self-esteem and reputation and is asking for unspecified damages and punitive damages ” if warranted and appropriate.”

March Madness Bracket Names 2018: Top 10 Best & Funniest

Every year, fans clamor for the day when every single team is announced that will participate in the highly anticipated event that is March Madness. However, while the aforementioned statement may be the top priority for college basketball fanatics, there is also another conundrum for tournament participants to consider before the glorious festivities commence: what should the name of their bracket be? While the internet is saturated with a plethora of suggestions, there are actually only a select few that are worthy of being your chosen bracket name. If you wish to befuddle your opponent before they even view your final picks on your bracket, look no further than these hilarious monikers that will distinguish your bracket from the rest of the dull pack.


10. Full Metal Bracket

Whether or not you’re a Stanley Kubrick fan is irrelevant. If you only have a loose understanding of what the movie Full Metal Jacket is about, you’re well within your rights to utilize this particular bracket name to strike fear into your eventual opponents within your bracket pool.


9. March Sadness

Although it may be unoriginal, there is hardly a more apropos utterance than “March sadness”. Evey year, brackets become busted quicker than many participants would like and, as a result, the once highly anticipated postseason affair devolves into something much more depressing and frustrating.


8. March Mad Men

If you want to feel like a suave badass before your bracket becomes inevitably busted within the first weekend of March Madness, look no further than this simple yet intimidating alliteration. While you may never swoon the ladies with your college basketball knowledge, at least you can create the illusion of being a well put together sports guru if only for a moment.


7. Wake me up when Duke losses

Ah yes, the obligatory trolling of the Duke Blue Devils. Although North Carolina fans will undoubtedly relish using this name the most, anyone who watches college basketball regularly is all too familiar with the hatred and resentment that surrounds this program.


6. When I Think About You I Touch Bill Self

Nothing personal Bill, but this name is just the type of raunchy announcement that fans need to amuse themselves once their brackets become decimated during March Madness. Look, I’m sure Bill is a nice enough guy, but his unfortunate last name is simply too good not to use for a top-tier bracket name.

5. One Man Wolfpack

As contradictory as it is amusing, this name actually speaks the truth when it comes to participating in March Madness. Once you finally submit a bracket, it’s you against the world, for better or for worse.

Honestly, you may be better off following the advice of this particular name rather than attempting to over analyze each team that makes the tournament. It happens every year; someone that has never watched a game of college basketball utilizes this ridiculous method and, sadly, usually ends up beating you.

Too soon? Sorry Louisville fans, but your program has been marred by one ridiculous scandal after another, which has unsurprisingly left the door open for fans to poke fun at your team’s transgressions.

For anyone who has ever listened to Bill Walton’s eccentric yet charming commentary, you understand how perfect this name is for your bracket. He may be a Pac-12 homer, but at least he brings a trippy and unique presence to a game that takes itself way too seriously at times.

Although Grayson Allen has been surprisingly tame in terms of his on the court antics this season, his reputation as a dastardly competitor will live on forever. His adeptness at pulling off the subtle trip has earned Allen this name multiple times over and will certainly delight your fellow March Madness participants should you decide to use it.

University of Massachusetts School Newspaper Publishes Preposterous Article About Fraternity Culture

$

Hating on fraternities is the new black.

Everywhere you turn, there’s a think-piece here and an op-ed there about the toxicity of fraternity culture and how harmful it is to society, the latest of which coming from The Massachusetts Daily Collegian, the student newspaper of the University of Massachusetts.

The article, titled “Fraternity culture is problematic” (some hot take ya got there, kid!), delves into fraternities, their downfalls (of which I acknowledge there are many) and how their presence in the social scene “ruins partying.”

Now, my issue is not so much with the points the author made, but the way that she frames her examples and excludes information in order to make a stronger case.

For example, at one point, the author of the article outright states:

“I’d like to note that I have specifically not mentioned sororities because they do not really create issues like their male counterparts. Sororities do not treat female party guests – or their sexuality – like an admission ticket.”

This is the equivalent of complimenting a house cat for not trying to murder you.

Yes, the cat technically has not tried to murder you, but only because they’re physically incapable. In fact, studies have shown that if cats were large enough, then they would actually try to kill you. So yes, while sororities may not “treat party guests like an admission ticket,” it’s only because they haven’t had the opportunity.

Women are every bit as vindictive, superficial and judgemental as men so I can guarantee that if a school’s elite sorority were the ones hosting the parties, they’d be just as selective as their male counterparts. You can almost hear the soundbites from Alexa and Rachel now:

“Ew, did you hear the Alpha Chi guys want to come to tonight’s party?”

“Um, gross. There’s like six of them and like half of them are bald and fat. No way are they getting in.”

And in case you needed any more proof that “sorority chicks” are just like “frat bros,” I point you to the University of Miami and the University of Pittsburgh, who have recently suspended sorority chapters due to hazing and alcohol violations.

Fraternities are broken and are not long for this world (I’ve even written as much), but acting like the societal issues frats suffer from and cause are due to gender, and not opportunity is downright sexist. Did you know that Penn State sorority members aren’t even allowed to live together in a house because Pennsylvania state law would consider it a brothel? The difference between sororities and fraternities isn’t influenced by gender, but rather circumstance.

If fraternity culture troubles you so, then put it out of sight and out of mind. Think frat bros are pigs? Don’t associate with them. Think frat parties are dangerous? Don’t go to them. Think they’re drugging the jungle juice (which is deplorable)? Don’t drink it. The only thing forcing you to participate in Greek Life is the social standards you’re holding yourself to — nothing more and nothing less. I knew plenty of people at Rutgers who never stepped inside a fraternity house during their entire time at school and had just as much fun as anyone.

But as long as you keep cutting the line to get into the party because you and your cute friends have ratio (“I benefit from Greek culture…My friends and I can usually get into parties without trouble” she writes), you’re just as much a part of the problem as the men are.

Get ready for some March Madness with the Pac-12 Tournament! Arizona is looking very good going into this tournament as the No. 1 overall seed in the series. The Wildcats from Arizona are surely the team to beat. From the last four out of five tournaments, the first and second seeds made it to the finals of the Pac-12 Tournament. And if this pattern continues into 2018 then the Wildcats are likely to face off against the No. 2 seeded team USC Trojans in the finals. But who knows? This tournament may have an extra level of unpredictability as no team is significantly dominant to be a shoo-in.

But Arizona has a secret weapon in the form of the over seven-foot-tall DeAndre Ayton. He averages 19.7 points and 1.6 assists per game. In the 2017-2018 NCAA men’s basketball season, this 19-year-old giant scored a whopping 616 points. Now, that’s what I call a season! The Wildcats aren’t particularly dominant themselves, but Ayton is a beast on that basketball court. He won the title of both Player and Freshman of the Year. He’s also a future NBA star in the making.

Excited about the 2018 Pac-12 Tournament? Look below and find out what you need to know so you can live stream every game from the tournament on your TV, PC, tablet or mobile device.

Being in the middle of the pack of the tournament in terms of seeding, the eighth seeds are almost always forgotten as most fans and pundits assume that they will not make it past the second round where they will ultimately have to contend with one of the top seeds in the country. However, when it comes to the unpredictable affair that is March Madness, anything can happen, especially his year. With all of the parity that has existed in college basketball this year, any of the following projected eighth seed programs could make a splash in the tournament. When picking any of these teams to get past the second round, it is important to bear in mind that while they do have the athletes and dynamic skill sets needed to go far in the postseason, they also possess their fair share of weaknesses that could just as easily see them fall in the first round before they ever get a chance to prove themselves.


South Region:
1. Houston Cougars

A great defensive program that is capable of scoring from long range (39.1 3P%), the Cougars have both the athletes and composure to take down any college basketball giant that stands in their way. If leading scorer Rob Gray can continue to be a threat as an aggressor that is adept at getting to the rim, the Cougars have a decent chance of making it out of the first weekend of the tournament.


West Region:
1. Creighton Blue Jays

Lackadaisical on defense (74.3 PAPG) yet highly efficient when it comes to shooting the basketball (84.8 PPG), the Blue Jays have the moxie and skilled shooters to overwhelm their opponent consistently. On top of being adept at shooting from the field (49.9 FG%), the Blue Jays are incredibly consistent at making their free throws (75 FT%), an underrated skill that will serve them well down the stretch of tight contests in the tournament.


East Region:
1. Rhode Island Rams

Although it would be fair to judge the Rams for their recent slip-ups in their losses to St. Joseph’s and Davidson, they still possess a disciplined defense that is tenacious when it comes to taking the ball away from their opponents (eight SPG). However, the Rams need to be a bit more consistent when it comes to shooting from the perimeter if they hope to be competitive in the tournament (33.8 3P%).


Midwest Region:
1. Oklahoma Sooners

Given how poorly the Sooners played down the stretch of the regular season (lost seven of their last 10 games), many would question if this program deserves to be in the tournament at all. Still, the Sooners are unquestionably one of the most prolific scoring teams in college basketball (86 PPG) and will need every bit of it if they hope to go any further than the initial weekend of the tournament.

Italian Serie A champions Juventus, who has appeared in two of the last three Champions League finals, head to London to take on Tottenham Hotspur for the second-leg of their Round of 16 matchup.

Despite going down 2-0 during the first 15 minutes in Turin, the Spurs were able to claw back into the game, scoring two massive away goals, giving them the edge headed into the second leg.

Juventus, who lost in last year’s final to Real Madrid, are looking to keep the dreams of Champions League glory alive for their legendary goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, whose future at the club is uncertain.
