12:48am - new york times news alert: duke wins NCAA men's basketball championship


here is a great sports illustrated article.  more thoughts later.  let's just say that my heart was beating a thousand miles per hour for the full two hours last night, reaching a fever pitch with about a minute left to play.  i shouldn't have even gone to the gym yesterday; the game gave me a workout for my heart that can best any cardio routine.  zoubs and duke: you have attained greatness.  i knew you were capable of it.  what a team.  SO sad that the season is over, but what a way to end it.
