My local football team, The Washington Commanders, beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to advance in the playoffs. If I understood a local sports announcer correctly, the Commanders have won their last 5 games on the last play of the game (offensively or defensively)! Talk about heart-stopping endings...
They need a week of rest and so do I. I feel exhausted after every game.
And the Univ of MD prides itself on basketball. The Men are doing well. The #8 Women are doing better. Sadly, they lost to the #4 USC team, but it could have gone either way right to the end when USC hit some baskets and MD had some bounce-outs. But they won the next BIG 10 conference game, so that helped. They are 14-1 which is very good.
More heart-stopping endings.

I used to like watching basketball but have rather gone off it in recent times. It seems to be too much about what happens in the last 5 minutes of the game, with all the earlier play merely filling in time.
As for gridiron football ... dearie, dearie, dearie. Thirty seconds play, then let's all stop for a committee meeting. You've gotta get yourself in front of an Australian Rules football match, Mark, and start living! LOL
