Well, as I sit in a surreal world where Duke lost in the first round loss to Mercer, I have mixed emotions. I vacillate between denial and anger. There is, however, one thing that brings a smile to my face. As we were watching this morning during breakfast (the game came on live at 1:15am Japan time so I DVR'd it), the kids were attempting to rally Duke with some cheers. Leah, using a blue and white pom pom that I actually got from a Lightning playoff game back in the day when they played at the Thunderdome (yes, that's pre-Tropicana Field), sang a cheer she learned last year during cheerleading:
Go, go get them Blue
Go, go get them White
Go, go get them Blue White!
The best, however, was Aaron's cheer. Carrying a blue foam Blue Devils pitchfork, he made up his own cheer:
Give me a "D"
Give me a "U"
Give me a "K"
Give me a "silent E"
Now that is a very detailed cheer! I just wish it had helped.
