“We Hardly Knew Ye”
The men and women of Pittsburgh are digging up the most depressing clothes they own for tonight’s funeral and reception. The loss to Louisville last night saw the end of our chances at getting the #1 seed in the NCAA Tournament.
As he (or she…or it…) lay dying in a back room at the Petersen Events Center, suffering from a case of too many turnovers and sloppy play, he uttered the final words, “I hope you guys don’t kill my brother, the #2 seed, too.” Shortly after, as the game clock struck 0:00, so did the clock on his life here in Pittsburgh.
He (or she…or it…) is in much greener pastures now. Places like Pauley Pavilion, the Dean Smith Center, the Kohl Center, the O’Connell Center, and maybe even Value City Arena. We barely knew you, and we can only hope your brother leads us to the same happiness we had hoped to gain from you.
(**Que sad organ music)
its just irritating to see all the hatred after one bad game….i know its a microcosm and all that nonsense..but all it is is one bad game…now if we lose sat or monday..thats a diff story………
The fact is, to win a national championship it doesn’t matter what seed we are; we’d still need to beat some damn good teams.
The point is, good teams lose at home in CBB.
