The only bit of bitter goodness I can squeeze out of this is hoping that the team can use all this as motivation to put their foot down at the end of games as they thoroughly dismantle everyone in the conference next year. Not to say we can't still make the tournament! But...fuck.

I hate Wisconsin so much, for reasons mostly personal involving an ex. And I hate the fact that they've been climbing in the US News rankings, and here in Chicago, they're though of as "cool." Goddammit, MICHIGAN IS COOL. ARGH LUCKY THREE POINTER POSBANG ME OR STAB ME ONE OR THE OTHER OR BOTH I DON'T CARE WHY AM I TYPING LIKE SAMUEL L JACKSON I DON'T KNOW FUUUUUUCK

Still really, really, really pissed. Clearly.

I just feel bad for this team.  That's a very disciplined veteran team with a legit superstar player.  They also were just bigger and more rugged.  Yet Michigan scrapped and did a way better job on the glass than I could have imagined.  

Just a possession here and there where they could have spread out that lead, and a free throw or two at the end.  Damn it.  Damn it all to hell.

0-6 free throws to close out the game. Damn.  Morris, you ballhogging, superstar wannabe.  Give the ball up. OH well, venting, there feel better.  Was not meant to be tonight.

One of these days, it's going to be Michigan making that shot. Or better yet, imposing their will on a team early and not needing that shot. Michigan was 1-6 in Big Ten play. They have improved greatly since then. With 2 games left and the B10 Tournament ahead... maybe this young team has a surprise or two left in them.

Got to stay positive even after that punch to my gut. Still remember watching Turner in the BTT nail that miracle shot, sitting in Pizza House. This team is awesome and has been so fun to follow. They have not given up and I hope they give Minnesota and MSU their best shot. Never know what can happen in BTT. I think next year could be special. The team has guts. Michigan Football and Basketball will be back. We are very close. There is a light at the end of the tunnel that has been these past few years. I'm just happy about moving back to Michigan soon to be able to watch them in person more often.

If Michigan wins the next two games they could get a five seed in the BTT. It would be much easier for our team to win the whole thing starting that Friday as opposed to Thursday. That's something to smile about I guess.
