I just did the play-by-play of the last minute in regulation and all of overtime in the Kansas-Memphis game for Pete, who was heading back to Reston from the Nationals game. He said my commentary was very good, although I think I should practice more. It was like this:

Me: And Kansas has the ball, and the Kansas guy is bouncing it, and he passes it to the other dude, and whoa now ANOTHER guy has it–and he scores two points for his team!

Pete: For Kansas?

Me: No, Memphis. Oh wait no yeah Kansas! For Kansas! And now they’re dribbling it around and the Memphis guy is at the top of the key–the paint–no, he’s just, I don’t know–he’s running around a lot–aaand boom goes the dynamite.

Pete: Ok, just…what’s the score?

Given that all other aspects of my life have temporarily been overtaken by Davidson basketball, it’s only fitting that the TFH blog succumb to Davidson mania as well. I know there are a few TFH readers and commenters, such as the fans pictured below, who are ecstatic about Davidson’s trip to the Sweet Sixteen.
