If you live long enough, you see it more than once

I love seeing Goliath knocked down a peg.

Alabama, the Patriots, cable TV.

Duke basketball.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Demon Deacons of Wake Forest take down the #7 Blue Devils last night, not only for the moment itself but for the nostalgia it sparked in yours truly. It was a dozen years ago (can it be that long?) I saw Wake Forest take down #2 Duke on its home court, prompting the only storm-the-court frenzy I’ve ever been involved in personally.

Yeah, most of the players in last night’s game were six years old at the time.

But I’m still cool.
