... is bare feet and wet grass. A breeze that would maybe move a girl's skirt a little. Sweater weather. A malted, you know, a shake. The gentleness of it. The wholesomeness of it. It's tender. 

Watching your team play, with the chance to do something special.  Al said it best .... seashells and balloons. 

Gooooooooo Marquette!!

Congrats MU....    :D

Well done indeed....   I remember seeing that quote in a Street and Smith BB preview a long time ago when I was very young.  I really miss Al,  My second favorite BB coach of all time......
