I hope this kind of coverage from national outlets is the new norm after suffering in oblivion for 3 decades.

I thought, for sure, that Swella would have responded to the "soul" of the story. Since he probably doesnt have one. :twisted:

Not any more I don't. I sold my soul last March. You didn't really think the Ramblers' magical run to the Final Four came without a price to pay, and without divine intervention, did you?

Sure I paid a steep price, but nothing compared to GoRamblers' sacrifice. Go offered his one remaining lock of hair to the Basketball Gods in exchange for Donte's buzzer beater. The obvious Biblical equivalent to measure the greatness of Go's selfless act is Abraham offering to sacrifice his only son Isaac.

The only difference is that God spared Isaac and Abraham went on to have a bunch more kids, while Go's hair is gone for good.

There is a lesson to be learned in all this, I'd appreciate it if somebody would tell me what it is.

I wonder what Swella would have had to give up to win that game against Michigan.
