Cool Don't doubt it but...

Dear Jurassic,
I'm not surprised. It's funny, though. The Dallas Morning News is the only news agency to quote Mr. Valentine as using this expletive. CBS Sports not only didn't, they didn't even report this as a story on Saturday or Sunday. The AP didn't and of course, none of the Ohio papers. Only a newspaper from Texas, covering a Texas team that played the entire game as if the officials owed them a trip to the the Final Four. Xavier not only outplayed and outcoached Texas but the clearly wanted the game more. The better team won. As far as the Dallas Morning News is concerned, the fact that no other major media outlet has picked up this story leads me to believe that this is a non-story. More irresponsible "journalism." Sounds to me like they were trying to put a shine on Texas' terrible performance.
