I'm just impressed that many people know sign language

Way to go team!

I wouldn't have blamed em if they did give how emotional the players were after the game.
Moody really is special.

Nights last night are the reminders of how lucky we are to have this team, coach, and environment. It makes the raised ticket prices completely worth it

I live about 5 hrs from Orlando. My kids are SMU hoops zealots, little girls 6 & 8. The AAC tourney accompanied by multiple theme park days has been on the books forever. Then, the sanctions. Told my girls SMU wouldn't be playing and they sobbed, didn't even want Disney.
Last night, about an hr after their bedtime, my eldest daughter opens her bedroom door and asks the score. I told her SMU was down too much w/too little time. That these are tremendous kids who gave everything they had, but they are tired. She asked if she could watch the last 4 minutes of the undefeated season and get her sister. I'm a sap for making memories w/my kids, cause at the end of the day, being a Dad is all that really matters to me. Sure, I say and they both come down and sit next to me on the couch. We sat there for 2 seconds before all 3 of us were standing and yelling.
After the game, I take them back to bed to tuck in, and my youngest says "We should go to Orlando, go to that tournament, and wear our SMU clothes.' I ask her why and she says 'b/c we're the best, need to remind them.'
Moody Magic indeed. Thanks for the memories, good people
