Even though I hate to admit this, I was rockin' out to MJ during my workout today

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it
Beat it, beat it, beat it

Yes I am a proud child of the 80s
 
Oops, jumped the gun. <pun intended>

24 days from tomorrow is the official Match Day (Thursday). Still, the picture captures our resolve, dedication, and affinity for those who bear arms.

:thumbup: i just had a feeling this would be the picture of choice for day 24!
 
I was just about to post this for 23. :)

We're one day early though. (Apologies for jumping early on 24)
 
No reason to be embarrassed. More albums of Thriller have been sold than any other album all time.
 
Okay, we are back on track.

23 days until Match Day.

I believe I can fly.

Edit: don't know why that didn't work... can anyone fix it?
 
Well, I think we can agree LeBron doesn't hold a candle to MJ. :)

Haha the second I saw this thread I knew exactly which pic I wanted to put up for 23. Unfortunately I got beaten to the punch with MJ, but now that there's been a couple, I feel okay about going ahead and posting anyway. I feel especially compelled to do so because someone brought Cleveland into the mix :smuggrin:. So, The Shot (Version 1.0):

1. I love how "The Shot" is its own entry on Wikipedia.

2. We cannot mention "The Shot" without Craig Ehlo crumpling in the background like he got kicked in the head.

Anyone want to forget about counting down to match day and just post Jordan pics till then?

Anyone? No? Just me?

New thread?

Mariah? (What's up? :cool:)

Hi,

I realize how ignorant I sound asking about this, seeing as though i'm an applicant this year.

When exactly is match day?
the nrmp website/timeline confused me
- lists the 16th noon as when all info is posted to website
- lists the 19th as match day.

Which is which?
- how can people begin to scramble on the 17th if the day-before was not the official match day?
Am i to understand that those who are UNMATCHED find out a few days earlier than those who match?!

Please shed some light.

May 16th: All those registered with NRMP receive an email stating whether they've matched or not (no specifics). Those unmatched begin the scramble.

May 19th: All those who've matched find out the specific program at which they've matched.

Exactly.

You find out IF you matched on the 16th, and WHERE you matched on the 19th.

That way, even if you scrambled, you can get your match day envelope like everyone else... and no one has to know that you didn't match.

So, first...OK...WOW! You're in the middle of it and you don't get the most basic part of the Match. Good luck to you next year.

Monday 3/16 is when applicants find out if they matched and programs find out if they filled. If you matched, you go back to drinking heavily until Thursday 3/19. That's Match Day where people find out where they matched and programs find out who matched to their program.

So yes, people who didn't Match find out first that they didn't Match, then get a few days to scramble for a spot in order to pretend on Match Day that they Matched.
