Reynolds
To catch Scott I needed Scottie Reynolds to score 14. He was sitting on 12 when the game was out of reach, then hit 2 free throws, which left us in a tie. Then Reynolds hit a “meaningless” three pointer with about 20 seconds remaining in the game.
I don’t know if Scott was watching and aware of the scoring situation, but if he was, I’d really like to know if someone snapped a photo of his face when Reynolds hit that 3.
I admit I did not watch the game after about 7:00 to go in the first half.
I am so old these days that I just couldn’t stay up for it. Plus, the game didn’t look like it would be contested, and I knew I would just be watching my doom as Hansbrough and Reynolds put up the points. Still, I expect you are to be congratulated soon.

If you weren’t battling me, I’d be rooting for you to hold on to the lead, Pittman. Maybe Hansbrough will sprain his ankle in warm-ups.
If I do end up winning this it will be an outlier for our tourney game. Usually this thing is decided by the first two rounds. I was far behind then, and even after the third round too. Strange things are afoot at the Circle K.
This has been the best year for the game..
Here we are at the end of it, and there is still at least some outside chance I could win it. It would take a very unusual occurrence, but it is still at least a little competitive. It never happens this way.
