…and there we were… hanging by a thread, over the vast precipice of the Grand Canyon. Hands sweaty and slipping on the safety rope, with no one close by to lend an assist. Thinking of the last time with Penelope and how will she cope without us. Hands slipping…if only I could grasp that ring on the safety guard railing…stretching, stretching, just out of my reach…hand slipping…
Suddenly-without warning, unknown hands snatch me by the collar and shoulders…and I am again on terra firma. Geoff, Mo, and the team have done it again – saved our butts from extinction – Creighton’s on a February run.
Cheer, yell, and enjoy the ride as the Jays aim for maximum victories and a shot to make the NCAAs. Teams get bids based on their overall resume, but it is difficult to imagine a scenario where the 3rd/5th place team of the 4th best conference (CBS RPI/Realtime RPI) in the nation, fails to get a bid. I am hoping and praying for a trip to St. Louis for the Bluejays…a new NCAA version of the “Creighton Invitational“, at the Scottrade Center.
