Did your loved ones have an intervention after the first weekend or something?

I couldn't decide who to pick. I probably would have taken the points so that I got a Michigan win or a close Louisville win.

And 5 a.m. is rough.

Nah. Just didn't feel really good about either side. Gun to my head, I would have given the points. Was also pondering the first half under 64. Didn't pull the trigger on that, either. Can't recall how that one turned out.

And yes, 5 a.m. is indeed rough.
 
38-37 at the half.

Nantz bonered up about how the 50th title game in '88 had a halftime score of 50-50, and how this year's 75th title game produced 75 points at the half.

Yeah, I feel bad for you and your 13 paid days off every month and many three-day weekends (slight, slight exaggeration). ****.

Don't worry, I'm not asking you to feel bad for me. I don't HAVE to get up that early, but as you know, my life would suck a lot more if I didn't.

Anyway, it was worth the lack of sleep this time. Hell of a game.

Good adjustments by Pitino once again after Louisville fell behind. And John Beilien should have put Trey Burke back in the game sooner. Albrecht played out of his mind for a while there, but that wasn't going to last, and Albrecht is the friggin national player of the year.

I think Beilein is a great coach, but he got outcoached. Too little Burke, too much Albrecht in the second half. Spike was nice in the first half but a turnstile in the second. And Michigan had no answer for the pick and roll.

Beilein not knowing the foul situation late in the game is a major, major gaffe. He got undressed last night.

I thought that Mich in the Final was a tremendous job but no answer to PNR? How about an aggressive trap at least? Change up to zone was good move but Mich just could not rebound.

Several times in the last 2 mins the Cards had to throw the ball to Dieng and ....NO FOUL!!! That was the fatal flaw.

Atta boy, Spike!

Beilein's been joking for a while now about Spike Albrecht being the most eligible bachelor on campus, but not only did he take a shot at Kate Upton, he had about 50 female students waiting in line for a picture when UM got back to Crisler today.

I think you're a few news cycles behind.
