Yep.
30 years from now I won't remember any of that other crap occurring in the year of da lawd 2K and fifteen, but I'll remember the Cat being 38-0, having 3 straight shot clock violations, and losing in the Final Four.
It sucks, but it'll never go away.
Is it wrong that I laughed at this obvious sarcasm (I didn't laugh at the guy dying, that's awful, just the sarcasm)?Hope WCS is happy for killing your pappy. All he had to do was play harder.
For me these are some of the major highlights of 2015:
Star Wars returns to the big screen
Paris shooting
Kim Davis fiasco
ICD 10
Cubs won a playoff series
The death of the platoon system
Last face to face conversation I had with my Dad was about the game. Was Easter the day after, he was sick in bed with the flu and never once came downstairs to my family's Easter brunch they always host (was an odd precursor looking back) so I went up and talked to him about the game. Obv he was not thrilled. WCS drew his particular ire from what I recall. Died suddenly Tuesday morning, but that was the last time I saw him.
So that one is burned into my brain from here to eternity.
I never watched a replay but as I remember it Andrew Harrison costing us a chance at history and the title. That kid **** the bed down the stretch.
Same. I left about 7-8 minutes to go. Couldn't take it.Being in Indy's Lucas Stadium, half court, row 17 and seeing our 38-0 Cats not beat some team wearing red. It felt like time just froze for days. Hands were white knuckled on the steering wheel and had a blank stare for the full 1,000+ miles back to Houston. Just a game my ***!
Some other things happened too.....
