This has to be brief because I have a very important basketball game to watch. I am faced with a mother's dilemma tonight because the stars have aligned in a way that has caused the Badgers to face the Orangemen in the Sweet Sixteen. How do I cope with the pressure that this has put on me? The emails were flying today between the boys and the question was asked,"Who will Ma root for?"
How to I base my decision? I could be practical and ask myself how much Tom and I invested in the two institutions but that is essentially a wash. This is not about dollars and cents. This is a matter of school pride. How can I choose. I choose to be neutral. My love for both boys is equal so I must not show any favoritism. Brian asked if I wanted to stay for dinner tonight and watch the game but I choose to watch it in the solitude of my little apartment. I hope its a good game and is enjoyed by all. After all, no one seemed to care when Purdue blew it over the weekend and lost in the final seconds to Kansas after leading the entire game.
