The Butler Didn't Do It

If he had hit that half-court shot to win it, while on one hand I'd be telling my grandkids one day that I saw it, on the other hand I'd always see the win as illegitimate. It's not a game of HORSE, after all.

But if he hit that one before, it woulda been one for the ages.

Also, I'm almost certain this is the NCAA Final with the most number of players that look like doppelgangers of my little brother since 1945.

The best officiated big game I've ever seen.

def true. let 'em play. otherwise would be hearing "they were in the tank for Duke!" forever.

Teddy Valentine managed to slip quite a few in there for Duke including a couple of game changers. And Butler played the whole game protecting at least two starters while not even Zoubek's uncoordinated ass was in any real trouble I'm just saying. . . OK, I hate Duke.

I'm still crying a little about Butler.

This picture makes me laugh, though, and it satisfies my obligation to provide Xmastime with pictures of Butler chicks.
