A couple of hours after this picture was taken, our beloved Michigan State Spartans lost to the Butler Bulldogs in the Final Four of the NCAA tournament. By the time this is posted, a champion will have been crowned, but I'd like to take a minute to say thank you to State for a wonderful season. This was the year that Abbey learned how to say "swish" and "clank" (and even sometimes did it at the appropriate times), and the year that Izzo coached his team to the Final Four without his point guard on the court.
And I can't help but note that I would have been pulling for Butler had they been playing anyone but us. Lots of excitement in the tournament this year, but I wouldn't have minded being a little bit of a spoiler for the hometown team. College basketball is one sport that I actually love watching (women's gymnastics doesn't seem to count too much in our house), and it was an exciting season. We're all looking forward to next year!
