The Magic Of March: Houston's Ridiculous Comeback Had Jim Nantz Crying In The Stands While Wearing His Lucky Sweatshirt

I've slept on it and I still can't stop 1) laughing at the collapse and 2) how Houston plays. They just take the life out of teams. It doesn't matter how much they are down or how much they are up. They just keep playing that defense that we know about and this year they have playmakers. What I didn't realize what they had is Jim Nantz and his lucky sweatshirt. Correction: everyone knows they had Jim Nantz, I didn't know he had a sweatshirt that is undefeated. 

I'd make a case that no one has a better life than Jim Nantz over this week. He's in San Antonio watching his team make a title game with a ridiculous comeback. He's in San Antonio watching them play in a national title game. Then he gets to go to Augusta to call The Masters. Not bad! I'd be crying my eyes out in the stands too. I'd be dancing my ass off like Kelvin Sampson did too. 

Look, for as much as people shit on college basketball or we all said this Tournament has sucked leading into the Final Four, you get these moments. A man who called the Final Four. A man who called the greatest ending the sport has ever seen with the Kris Jenkins shot. But, you know what? He fucking loves the Houston Cougars. Look at that man crying, I'll defend that to my death. 

Let's watch the comeback again, you know, for good times.
