Basketball Jones

Given the Tar Heels' ignominious collapse in the NCAA tournament, I'd consigned myself to watching anything but basketball tonight

But here I am, pulling for Florida against Ohio State for the national title.Why the Gators?
Because their stars could have made a run for the money in the NBA after winning it all last year. (If I were in their Nikes, I certainly might have.)

But instead, they all stayed, and dedicated themselves to doing something special -- winning a second title in a row.

I like that. So for one night only, I'm a Gator guy.
