Big boys don't cry? . . .

[Rixtoy1]

If this has been mentioned, my apologies.
It may have been lost in all the post game analysis, accolades and after-thought coaching, but I was glad to see our guys not drop to their knees and openly weep or pull their shirts over their faces in uncontrollable crying. If they had, I suspect I would have been empathetic, but in my view they lost as they had won - like men. I doubt that sort of thing is ever discussed before hand, but I was as proud of them in losing as I have been in winning.

(Not wanting to start a debate - just sharing a thought).

Amen +1. A team with not a single "Star", NBA Prospect, PoY, McDonald's All American, etc, etc, etc, just posted the greatest season in Shocker History. They are men. We are PROUD!

Two things:

1. I agree that the Shock comported themselves tremendously after the L-ville loss.

2. I apparently am not a Big Boy.

Yeah . . . i kind of left that part out - but, for me it was as much joy as disappointment . . .
