A win in the grasp, then ... poof

Saturday afternoon at 2 pm sitting in my home office with the radio on I couldn't believe what I was hearing Seattle U up by 15 points over Weber State on the road in Ogden Utah.  This was Weber State the defending Big Sky Champions, touted to win the conference again, who had only lost to Arizona State by 1 point and ranked 16 in the nation in shooting behind the arc - etc etc.  The Redhawks had totally dismantled Weber and had them on the ropes - my man Broussard (23 points) came out strong and the team was passing, shooting, playing defense like I know they can.

Within the final minutes of the game I had tossed a bowl across the room, slammed a door, kicked my dog (not really c'mon you all know how much I love my dogs) Screamed out the window and jumped up and down when Coach Dollar got hit with a technical (very timely, it kept us in the game) then after the final 6.5 seconds - slumped in my chair and said ..."Poof."  So close.  Weber State 65 SU 61
