On Tonight's NCAA Final.

You know, I just really don't care about college basketball. The best kids don't stick around any more than a year or two, and as much as I like to see a well-executed play, sometimes I just want to see LeBron or Kobe or Dwyane or Dirk or Durant or Nash take over a game through sheer talent and will. Also, I'm really, really tired of hearing about "scrappy, energetic, smart, hard working" players who "take pride in their academics."

OK, OK, I admit getting caught up in the excitement of the close games in the tournament, and I admit to being a nominal fan of the North Carolina Tarheels (because of Michael Jordan's pro exploits). And this year is the first in a while when I haven't filled out a bracket for gambling purposes. But I just don't care. I just ... don't ... care ...

Oh screw it. Go Butler. Please do everyone a favor and beat those snobby Dukies senseless. Do it for America.

Not that I'll be watching or anything.

  2. You route for the Tarheels AND Butler? This confirms it -- you're a Spartan hater. Your recent avoidance of Jody and me now makes perfect sense.
    :(

  3. No, I don't hate the Spartans. Trust me, if they were in the title game, I'd be rooting for them.

    And I have never rooted for Butler before tonight.
