After last night’s debacle and feeling livid that Arkansas gave up 25 unanswered in the closing minutes to a weak Colorado State team, I wanted to take a night of sleep before writing this to see if I could separate myself from the emotions of the game and have a much more cool and level headed reaction to it.
It didn’t work.
When thinking about how this game ended, I keep coming back to this.
See, kids be getting stuck with jewels and fly gimmicks
Shorty see the action and then start to mimic
Running to the corner, the dice game is blazing
Looking at the loot, it seems so amazing
Puts the short down, to be exact one pound
He shakes the stones in his hand, then he lets it down
Scared money don’t make none
That’s from A Tribe Called Quest’s 1993 song “Midnight,” the last line felt especially appropriate for this game.
