That was the WORST basketball game I think I’ve ever seen. Total waste of time. Can’t believe Howard and Mack were held to puny points. UConn really didn’t seem that good but our town high school team could’ve beaten Butler all to heck. What an anti-climax… should’ve read my book instead of wasting 3 hours on a flop. Can’t believe Butler beat all those teams beforehand and then ended it all in the dumps. Wonder if VCU could’ve beat UConn? We’ll never know.

I understand what you are saying and agree with you. Regarding the ‘celebrate mediocrity’ notion, it’s too true, especially in what one would consider “upper class” communities. What, we don’t give enough hand-outs to our kids already? What do they REALLY have to work for anyway and then they get a medal even when they stink? Great. Raising a society of losers, victims, etc that expect recognition for breathing.
These emerging athletes are not pushed enough. I’m not talking about bringing back the medicine balls or dragging kids behind your car to get them to run, but RUN them- hills, lines, whatever. Get their little Wii muscles heated up…shred them, and build them back up. That is what saved Butler in Saturday night’s game. They had the legs to feed the wolf. VCU had the skills and the wills, but lost in the end, I think, because they couldn’t keep pace.
