I just sent the following in a Sunday night e-mail to my brother. It is sugar coated a little because I was super stressed and uptight yesterday. Had on been more chill and had adults to converse and enjoy the moment with, I probably would have been dancing around my house! I don't even have a TV with the right channels. I listened to it in the car, then on my phone, then on my computer because my phone quit working. Sports are a fleeting thing, but man I love me some Utah Basketball:
Ok . . . Biggest news of the week!!!!! Are you ready!!!!
The Utes beat Duke at Madison Square Gardens on Saturday! It went to overtime. It was a little ugly . . . homered calls, way too many turnovers, nearly blew it at the end, etc. . . . but oh man, they did it!!! Can you believe it! It made all those losses to Kentucky over the years and last year to Duke feel totally redeemed. Jimmy Fallon was even at the game. It had to have been the happiest basketball day since 1998 and I Annie and I danced around our Mildred house after Utah beat Arizona in the NCAA's. I was a little excited! Jakob Poeltl had 19 points and 14 rebounds and played one of his best games ever. He also played most of the 2nd half with 4 fouls and didn't foul out until 30 sec left in the OT.
