c'85 Towering toward the Blue

Yesterday stunk for all of us, but it could be worse--we could be UK fans who watched their team get utterly destroyed by Florida. And have their star (Monk) seen laughing on the bench while the beatdown occurred.

It doesn't change KU's outcome, but maybe softens the blow just a tad.

“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”

Great subject line!

Yes. We played below who we are while ISU played above who they are. I think Burton was paying us back for Elijah Johnson's overtime performance a few years back.

At least we do not have to suffer what Atlanta sports fans are enduring.

I watched the game here in Atlanta which bunch of friends. First three quarters were a lot of cheering and fun. Then we saw it coming. Thanks for your expression of sympathy.
