Today, we simply write about the 2008 FedEx Orange Bowl Champion Kansas Jayhawks. Sounds beautiful doesn't it? Who would have ever thought? Certainly not that night on the field a Memorial Stadium the night before the season opener two years ago.
I never thought this whole year was possible. Call it a dream come true. Almost the greatest dream come true, amidst a time and place where no dreams ever come true. Even as one was dying horrifically, it didn't matter. It wasn't going to deter me or us and our destiny. We didn't write the script, we just lived it out.
Put simply, it was the perfect day. Ok, maybe a thing or two were far from perfect, but if you think that was going to ruin anything, you're wrong. Dead wrong. This story is about dreams and destiny and the wonderful people that were along for the ride. People you could trust. Hand in hand in war. We also paused to remember those who couldn't be there on that perfect night. Those who deserved and should have been there. No matter what, we started this journey together and it would have only been right to all take that last victory as one in victory.
Then, I remember a brother that is gone. You'll never be forgotten and you were there. Also, the Niners still suck! Hahahahaha. But, seriously, you'll always be missed and you're with me every day. You must be impressed about by how I know just how to sit and watch it all blow away?
It's was a quest that, yes could have been better, but that's not how life works. Instead, sit back take it all in and be grateful. B/c it'll never be the same ever again.
But, for one night, it was ours and no one can ever take it away. And I will always be so blessed to see it for fear of the day when I can't see anything anymore, especially you.
Time of your life kid...
