DO YOU HEAR THAT SOUND?
What sound you say? Shhhhh.... listen. That's the sound of NCAA Pool sheets being ripped up across the city. Pool sheets of guys like myself, THE SPIN DOCTOR, THE MAYOR OF MURRAY HILL, FIRE-MARSHALL ED, MR. CHIPS and countless others who had high hopes for Memphis to win it all. Instead, happy dreams of coin-in-pocket vanished in a span of about two minutes when the Memphis Tigers somehow blew a nine point lead with less than two minutes left in the NCAA Championship game. Their opponent and eventual champion, the Kansas Jayhawks, who were seemingly left for dead, found divine inspiration and mounted an improbable comeback to force what was a certain victory, to overtime. By then, the Jayhawks found new life and seized the opportunity to deflate the dreams of the Tigers and the rest of us who seemingly had money in hand with their certain victory (much to the delight of the many Kansas fans in the bar).
While I'm grumbling about the fact that I could have, should have won some coin from a Memphis victory, I have to give props to the Jayhawks for not packing it in and fighting to the very end. It goes to show you that if you want a win bad enough, you'll do whatever it takes to get it done. So good job, Kansas- you deserve the victory. Bastards. (Just kidding.)
