Driving the baskets
As a Syracuse basketball fan, I was not looking forward to watching Butler play Michigan State in the NCAA Final Four on Saturday. Just previously, Syracuse, a number one seed, displayed even on the Sports Illustrated March Madness cover, lost our Sweet 16 match to this bunch of lanky Indiana ball players barely growing facial hair with a 33-year old coach.
