I had to leave my TV with Clemson baseball down 11-2 yesterday and was shocked to hear they won. So I had to go to ACCNX and find the replay and see how they did it. What a crazy baseball game! That put us late watching a recording of the Clemson - Baylor basketball game which had my blood pressure through the roof. Man O man was that exciting to watch! The effort & poise exhibited by the players down the stretch was so good to see after a few near misses during the year. Those 4 free throws by R.J. had me leaping out of my chair and tears of joy glistened as I watched these Clemson kids celebrate their hard earned victory.
After all that I watched a recording of the Houston-Texas A&M game which went into overtime and was an all out brawl with 6 players fouling out and another group had 4 fouls each. Houston lost 4 players for the year due to injury and then had 4 foul out last night and coach Sampson almost had to do a Rick Barnes imitation and go with 4 players near the end. People with weak hearts shouldn't watch March Madness! My goodness, the heart and resilience of these players and coaches is just amazing. At the end of every game you have a tearful celebration on one side and tears of pain on the other........every game.
