de Jongs are Deflated about de 'Dogs from Des Moines

Our good Friday week of good things has taken a turn for the worse. Niels and I were just returned from Damon's where we had the whole bar cheering for my alma mater, the Drake Bulldogs, in the NCAA tournament. (I was wearing my Drake alumni t-shirt). Alas, in overtime, with no time remaining, some guy from the other team (Western Kentucky) nailed a 3-pointer to win the game 101-99. Sigh...Maybe they'll make it back in another 37 years.
