"There's certain things on text threads you hate to admit about sports. Maybe it's that you think LeBron is better than Jordan. If you go there on certain text threads with certain friends or family you might lose a hand. Maybe it's that you think Barry Bonds is the greater than the Babe or that you'd draft Peyton Manning over Tom Brady. You text that into the wrong hornet's nest and you're gonna get three paragraph texts back 24 hours. Here's mine...I felt bad for the Patriots when they lost their perfect season in 2007. They were 18-0 and lost the Eli Manning. I felt bad for Tom and Randy and the Patriots.

It was like this weekend. I never liked pompous Coach K or his know it all wife. I didn't like Shane Battier or Corey Maggette or Jay Williams or Kyrie or Kyle Singler or J.J Redick. Hate Duke just like you. They think they do it the right way, and everyone else is Jerry Tarkanian and Calipari and , and Coach K is an apostle. And the Cameron Crazies aren't just crazy, they're probably sober, they're probably in finance they're probably going to wall street or the mayo clinic. So here's Cooper Flagg and John Sheyer. The modern day Laettner and Coach K. And they're +350 to win the title. And they lose the most gut wrenching bizarre way possible. And Flagg misses the game winner. And while happy Houston won, I felt bad for Flagg and Scheyer and Duke. I had sympathy for the Devil. Don't tell anybody!"
