I still love the Buckeyes

Disclaimer: this has NOTHING to do with data protection or privacy.

I am devastated that the Buckeyes lost the National Championship game AGAIN this year to the Gators AGAIN this year.

Not only did my beloved school come in 2d (NOT bad after all!) but I realized how far I have come since my rah-rah undergraduate days.

First, I was less worried about losing in the second half than I was worried that Oden was going to pass out on the floor from sheer exhaustion.

(I quickly got over that worry when I realized that his financial future looks far brighter than anything I can hope to attain in the corporate world & brighter than most of the guys on the winning team!)

Second, when that boy from Florida (with the markedly absurd & unflattering hairdo & kick butt free throw shot) scaled the stands, bypassing hundreds of adoring fans, to grab on to his momma it nearly broke my heart. Win lose or draw, that kid really got me.

I'm older now, I'm a momma too & those are the moments that make it all worthwhile.

Now, I'm still ticked the Buckeyes lost, but it doesn't hurt so much!!

Just a NON-privacy thought...
