Thought: we (certainly I) are anxious for tomorrow night to get here. The countdown to tip off is on. But, for fans as die hard as this group (you have a username on an Illinois fan forum; don't deny it...) its important to enjoy these moments before tip. It's been 19 (!) years since we last had an opportunity to enjoy a game of this magnitude. But I'd argue with the advent of social media and YouTube and fan sites, etc the exposure we have to the team and content around the team is greater than ever. Which makes the magnitude of this game even greater. I suspect it won't be another 19 years before we play another game on this stage (lets hope it is Saturday) but I still believe its important to enjoy these moments leading up. Something something about I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.
TL;DR - its possible if not likely that were back after nearly 20 years in the 'good ole' days. At times I wondered if we'd ever return? Enjoy the build up, and bask in being relevant again.
