I am not a college basketball fan; I have no stake in any team. But I am rooting for Illinois. Your enthusiasm and joy are contagious, and that's the right sort of contagion. I-L-L!
It reminded me of NC State in 1983...with Jim Valvano running all over the court. I'm a 1996 Chapel Hill grad (Carolina) and this one made me sick. I was lucky enough to have been a freshman when Carolina won the championship in 1993. I still have my sweatshirt with blue paint all over it. Btw, I enjoyed your article on working from home. I've been at home since November 2019 and the wife has been since 2006. Still getting used to it!
I loved this Illinois season. It ends badly for every team but one. At some point, we are gonna exorcise the demons of 89 and 05 and win the whole goddamn thing.

That's the spirit! GO ILLINI

Ha, thanks. Though this Illini fan has not forgiven you all for 2005!

Just make sure the audiobook reader pronounces "GIF" the way you want.
Oh, man, now I have to go send him more notes!
There’s nothing colder in the history of college basketball coaching than Jay Wright silently mouthing “Bang” as the ball is in the air.
It seems almost inhuman.
