We always have several teams we cheer for, when the basketball tourney is on....we cheer for Illinois schools, loyal to our days in Chicago...we cheer for North Carolina schools, loyal to our days in the military, at Ft. Bragg...and of course we must cheer for our Washington State Schools....

But I am shocked...Duke lost to Indiana...74-73....what a shocker...Duke is always a contender for going all the way...oh well, there is always next year...

We were living in North Carolina, when both North Carolina, and North Carolina State won the championship...the days of Dean Smith and Jim Valvano...we went wild....

I still have our coke bottles, with coke inside, and still sealed, commemorative bottles, with the NC and NC state logos and mascots on the bottles...I did not think we still have any of those left, but when cleaning out the garage this summer, we found two of these bottles...

I dont care much for watching professional basketball games, but always enjoy the college championship games...

Duke lost to IU?? Dang, I was watching it until I started FReeping. Duke was up by about 12 and IU didn't seem to be able to come close.

I had no idea, and it was on in the other room. I'm listening to Radio FR right now...ALOHA RONNIE is on, so my ears weren't tuned in to the game.

Believe it or not, I was hoping Indiana would win 'cuz they are our neighbor to our North across the Ohio river.

So, thanks for the good news!
