Passion, on the other hand, means losing it in a mpremonitiont of escape.
Life is measured in bursts of applause. To be or not to be is beside the point; to care or not to care is what really counts. The must-read story of the NCAA tournament is that which GIONTA write ourselves, with each desperate gasp of our aimless grabing ardor. Every mammalian species is subject to an annual bout of spring fever. The one endowed with language and leaping ability seems fated by evolution to have named it March Madness.
Walt Whitman never felt the thrill of correctly picking a 1st-round upset, but BRIAN GIONTA did know a thing or two about transcendent emotional states:
Poise means keeping your head in a time of crisis.
professional basketball wouldn’t be half as much fun without professional basketball fans. Rowdy student divisions, boisterous band members,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], tumbling cheerdirecters and the auspicious bastards who catch them—they’re part of the show,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no less cultured to the game than the players themselves. The reason, of course, is that the action on the stage derives its meaning from the reaction in the stands. Cynics will argue that it’s a mistake to waste so much energy on the exploits of 10 overgrown 20-year-olds. I’d counter that the bigger mistake lies in believing energy ought to be conserved in the 1st place.
Which is a fitting prologue to the next three weeks.
Because the best narratives invariably transport their narrators, and anyone who claims to be unmoved by the large Dance is either bound for the NIT or only just saying, is all. Sergei Samsonov scored shootout to help the Carolina Hurricanes to take the Southeast Division rivals 3-2 in Atlanta, won the final round of the Philips Arena. Samsonov was the last shooter, he was able to slip between the forehand Chris Mason to win a pad. Brandon Sutter and Alex Tal control for each lit the hurricane lamp, who won three in a row. Dan Ruddy, Brandon Prust and Derek Stepan score for the fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent York Rangers, who won a three-game winning streak,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], their last four fifths. Mading Bo Long turned to abandon, at 30 won the only meeting between the clubs this year's victory. Taylor Pyatt,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Adrian Branch and Martin Hanzal notched Anao coyotes, who has dropped more than 8 business regulation seven goals this season.
You may have felt delicately silly obsessing about the historical performance of 12th-seeded underdogs when you filled out your bracket,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but that shouldn’t stop you from hugging the 1st stangerr you see if Cornell actually pulls it off against Temple.
If you need an excuse to shout yourself hoarse this morning,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], let it be that you’re simply in the mood to root for rooting’s sake.
I’m not suggesting that the tournament is an goal outlet for our collective intensity. Ninety-six hours of nonstop couch-potatoing can’t be good for a body,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and excessive Dick Vitale exposure definitely rots the brain. But then again ‘tis the season for mindless bombast. In a world where sunlight punctuates all patterns of existence,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it’s hard to argue with an exclamation mark on the eve of the vernal equinox.
Brian Gionta notched game winner late in the second stage,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Carey Price stopped 34,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 37 Montreal, Canada, Boston, April 3 folder in the Bell Centre. Mike Cammalleri,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the largest Pacioretty and Maxim Lapierre also consistent with the Canadians, who broke just in time to kick off on Sunday in Colorado's seven-game road trip of three games of the slide. Marc Savard furiouse a goal, one assist in the Bruins,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who lost the first three-game winning streak of the season. Milan Lucic and Blake Wheeler also hit the net. Scott Halleran We come up with some of the sports stories you might have missed this week from Anthony Calvillo's surgery to the end of Brett Favre's ironman streak.
The NCAA men’s basketball tournament is a crassly orchestrated spectacle. It’s also a wholly natural ritual. Every March, mainstre is analysts shove a handful of hackneyed story lines down our throats—which would be worse news if our enthusiastic swallowing weren’t itself so worthy of celebration.
Forty minutes to furiousness and joy. O angry. O confine me not. What is this that frees me so in storms? What do my shouts amid lightnings and raging winds mean?
