Madness

It's officially dancing season.  March Madness is in full swing and I couldn't be happier.  This is one of the best times of the year in sports.  Wyatt and I had kind of decided we weren't going to fill out brackets this year.  Then we had dinner at his parents' house and his dad printed us off some brackets.  We filled them out against our better judgement.  I'm sure after one day, they're all busted  (I always fill two out...one realistic bracket and one Hoosiers all the way bracket.  Wyatt on the other hand cannot pick against his beloved Hoosiers and only fills one out).

The state of Indiana had 5 teams to make the field this year.  Go Indiana, go!  Purdue lost their game to Cincy last night (please note, even with out immense love of our Hoosiers we both chose our big in-state rival to win that one).  Notre Dame and Butler both won their games yesterday and play each other next.  Valparaiso and my Hoosiers play their first games this afternoon!  Hoo-Hoo-Hoo-Hoosiers!

You can see where our hearts lie. #GOIU #HOOSIERS

H is for Hoosier

Less than 24 hours until the game! Remember this...

the saying always goes...

'better luck next year'....well unfortunately for the Bulldogs, this was not the case.  Such a heart breaker(again).  Would you rather lose the National Championship by a last second missed shot....or by achieving the lowest FG% in a game?  I'll take the buzzer beater any day over this.  It was like those baskets had lids that would not come off for the Dawgs!  Their spirit was definitely broken before the game was over.  So glad to have seen them go to the final back to back years.  It may not have ended anywhere near how many of us would have liked, but it was a great run boys!  You continued to prove critics and haters wrong through your run.  Sure this game was ugly...but it was ugly for a great deal of time for UConn too.

Congrats to Jim Calhoun for his accomplishments as coach.  That is a special achievement that few can claim as their own.  And, on a final note....take that mic from Barkley and don't give it back.

Time for the always tear jerking 'One Shining Moment'...yes, I'm sappy and tear up while watching every year.  It never fails.

  

Tonight is the night! Go Dawgs, Go! Bring the 'ship back to Indiana!  Also, for any of you who enjoy themselves a good Butler Blue 2 picture, go here.  I definitely think that Butler may have moved up higher in the Social Media Power Standings after this tournament run.  

And don't forget.....

BUTLERRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that is all.
