Crying Dayton Kid

That was me in 1987

I was going to make a comment until I saw the picture... I just can't...

 

[dollarbill44]

I would cry if I was dressed like that too.

I can comment. I have no shame.

 

[Briancuse]

I probably looked like that after the Vermont game, minus the silly hat.

Kid looks like Flick from A Christmas Story

OK I'll admit to it as well. I was born in 76 and I remember thinking all was right with the world going into that game. I had absolutely no thoughts ever that we would lose. It was crushing but in a way it made every big win after that much more gratifying especially 03. The desperate lows help shape us as fans as much as the highs.

Or he could be thinking that he has to go back to Ohio now.

I hear the kid's last name is Cooney. Now you fellas can be your natural selves.

sir Charles just let him know that life gets worse

thx Chuck

Of course Barkley had a comment about the kid. He is ruthless (and funny!!!).

 

[NKR1978]

That's how I looked after the Butler game. I was 32.

All the fans that wear that hat look like flick

It's a one shining moment shot.

Watching sir charles, spike lee, and samuel jackson sing in a car is worse.

Seeing his crying picture everywhere is going to push young Anakin to the dark side.

Yup. Surprised they didn't stay with the shot longer, or return to it later. The director had poor judgement. Crying kids are what you focus on during a blowout win in the Big Dance...

I probably looked like that after the Richmond upset, after the loss to Illinois in the Elite 8, after the loss to UK, after the Vermont upset, after losing to Ohio St,, after losing to Michigan...well you get the idea. It sucks to lose.

I hope you finally threw away the hat and goggles. Jeesh, talk about a bad luck combination.

Kid, you have no idea what's coming. Wait until the first girl breaks your heart.

This is a perfect opportunity for the kid's parents to teach him perspective. Life can provide real suffering and disappointment. College basketball is nothing for a fan to literally cry about.

 

[Trueblue25]

beat me to it

 

[CuseTG2003]

I hope the kid makes it safely back to Ohio in his single prop.

 

[No Hoyas]

still doesnt beat this...
