I'm Sorry, I Thought You Said Michigan Sucks

Even though the clip is about the Notre Dame-Michigan football game, it still provides opportunity to make fun of Michigan.

Not that they didn't play well. I didn't stay up to watch it, but Michigan was apparently winning for a majority of the game against Louisville, even being up by as many as 12 points at one instance. But Louisville stuck around and won the game, sending the city of Louisville into the typical alcohol soaked riot that we've come to expect following NCAA championships.

I'm very curious to find out how the die-hard Kentucky fans feel about this. I suspect they will be as annoyed as the Ohio St. fans would have been if Michigan had won.

Of course, it would have been nice to actually see the game, but the starting time was just completely foolish. Mrs. X was feeling a little tired and opted to head upstairs just before 9:30. They were on the National Anthem at that point. I wrapped up things downstairs and went up at 10:00 and it was about halfway through the first quarter. Mrs. X checked the score right before we turned out the lights around 10:30 and it was at halftime. To stay up and watch the whole thing would have required us to stay up until nearly midnight and I'm certainly not doing that; especially after staying up until 11:30 the previous night watching Mad Men.

Anyway, props to Louisville and Rick Pitino. Also props to Mrs. X's third bracket as the winner of our little pool.
