Party Like It’s 2007
Congrats to the Badgers on actually getting some hardware this year. They took home the conference and tournament championships. But when it really counted, this season ended almost exactly as last year did…losing in embarrassing fashion to a much lower seed because they couldn’t stop one guy. It is hard to talk badly about a team that went 31-5, but the disappointment is as intolerable and unpalatable as it was not making the Sweet Sixteen last season. I read through my previous posts about how great and balanced this team is, and how their defense would allow them to beat anyone. Not so much. It was sickening to listen to all the Cinderella garbage by the commentators. CBS and the NCAA can go have their fun with the sweetheart team that is more sexy than Wisconsin. There is not much else to say right now. Time to move on to the next sports season so we can watch some other team fail to win a championship.
Just as a side note: Marquette did not make it as far as Wisconsin, but their loss was infinitely more uplifting and acceptable.
