Osler's Razor

The Super Bowl was actually pretty interesting again! What's with that? Let's get the Buffalo Bills back in there!

Though it was a good game, the Super Bowl was not my favorite sporting event of the weekend. On Saturday night, I went to see Baylor's Lady Bears destroy the University of Colorado, 76-42. If you haven't heard, Baylor has a phenomenal freshman named Brittney Griner, who not only is 6'8", but is extremely gifted for an athlete of any size. Last night, she blocked 11 shots, scored 24 points, and grabbed 10 rebounds for her second triple-double of the year. She was completely dominant inside, and after a while Colorado just stopped trying to get past her. It was an amazing performance.

But then, after the game, something really fun happened. The Baylor team stayed on the court to sing the school song ("That Good Old Baylor Line"). Griner took a set of pom-poms from a cheerleader and sang the song with the pom-poms in proper cheerleader position before doing a little cheerleader dance once the song was done.

People say she will change women's college basketball. That might be true, but this much I know:

1) She seems to love playing the game.
2) She doesn't take herself too seriously.
3) She is actually acting like a college student.

How great is that?

And what is your favorite unscripted sports moment?
