Somewhere, right now, A UK fan is standing outside. They reflect on Kentucky's basketball career: winning 8 March Madnesses in the past, De'Aaron Fox's amazing three-pointers, Coach Cal's constant encouragement, Roy Williams's grey hair and their consistent rivalry with the Tar Heels. But they wonder: "why wasn't it enough?"
They go back inside and pull out their rugged, old couch from the the basement. Heaving it up the stairs is hard work, but their intentions push them through the sweat. They place it in their driveway and head back. They open their lighter drawer and pull out a match box.
On the way back into the driveway, they reflect on how great they're going to feel once the deed is done. Will it be exhilarating? Will they get over UK's loss to UNC? Will the fumes from burning it kill them? They don't know. They simply hover the match over the couch, and drop it. Burn.
But hey at least Louisville and Duke lost
