I Left My National Championship on the Foul Line…Damn, that Sucks
| 13
|
There was once a man, (or should I say coach) who uttered a facsimile of these following words and honestly believed in what he was trying to ignore…
[I’m not worried about our guys making free throws, because I know they’ll step up and make them when they have to}
I’m just wondering if Coach Cal honestly still believes that happy horse shit that he fed to us throughout the course of this season. Perhaps he’d like to re-examine that thought? We all knew at some point Memphis free throw shooting, (or lack there of) would come to bite them in the ass, at some point, just so happens it did on college basketball’s biggest stage…For all of America to see. Now Coach Cal has to live knowing that every time he sees Bill Self, it’s Self who has his National Championship ring, simply because his players picked the inopportune time to castrate themselves at the free throw line! How awesome is that? Simply Fantastic!
While last night’s game was truly great and actually lived up to the hype that surrounded it…Undoubtedly going down in college basketball lore. For the most part all of us will remember it as the one that Memphis left at the Alamo…For they took a flying leap off the river walk into the river and never resurfaced again! Yes, KU had to capitalize over and over on the Tigers mistakes and yes it can be argued that Kansas won more so than Memphis lost, and for peeps who do that are purely morons.
And if the news couldn’t get any worse for the Tigers and their fans, well it just did! Leave it to ESPN to come to the rescue and pay tribute to the Memphis Gag Job by, yes, re-televising it . ESPN Classic is going to replay the Kansas-Memphis game on Tuesday night at 11:00pm EDT, (that’s 6:00pm out in Hawaii, or is it 5:00pm). Wait, I think I hear something!
Oh well, if it’s any consolation for Memphis…I’m willing to bet that the Tigers Cheerleaders could kick the shit out of KU’s pom-pom girls! For Coach Cal’s boys, well there’s always next year…Look at all the time you guys will have between now and then to practice free throw shooting. Although in the midst of sports latest gag jobs, it’s important to note that this team will be remembered for what they did over the course of the year, but more than that, for what they couldn’t do in the last three minutes of the final game. That’s what we’re going to remember…This is no different than how we’ll remember the 18-1 Patriots. No different!
Now for everybody that couldn’t stay up to 12:16 am EST, (I’m thinking it’s maybe 6:16 pm in Hawaii) to see CBS’s One Shining Moment due peeps tucked away in their beds getting a good night sleep before work, or to the Memphis fans who caved in their LCD’s, not to worry, I gotcha!
WARNING, WARNING, WARNING Just an advisory…This may not be suitable for the Tiger Faithful! Simply because this is not at all you one Shining Moment! You go Penny Hardaway!
Some more of the Memphis Meltdown from Coach Cal…Keeping this in mind. Wonder how many gallons of Pepto-Bismol this cat has drank in less than 24 hours? I wonder if one can O.D. on that shit? Is there a doctor in the house? Or did he get lost at the foul line down by the Riverwalk too?
