Kansas Takes the Title!

"On the anniversary of 'Danny and the Miracles,' Kansas claws their way back from a nine point deficit to take the championship!" Those are the words spoken by one of the announcers tonight - possibly by the Gumble brother.

I'm so glad I couldn't sleep and that I woke-up to see the big ending to the NCAA game. Though, from what I can tell, the finish to the regulation game was quite impressive as Chalmers tied the game with a 3-pointer. So though Brandon Rush is the team's biggest star, Chalmers has now secured his place in KU history with his last minute shot.

Now, I'm sure a few of you are reading these posts - somewhat shaking your head at my enthusiasm towards basketball as I'm not a sports. But there's something to be said for alma mater spirit. So even though it's been 15 years since I graduated, those KU memories are strong. Besides that, we all take pride in waving the wheat as it's something we've waited for, as Jayhawks, for 20 years now.
