OK, Rick Pitino, what have you done this week?
Obviously, your team, the Louisville Cardinals, won the NCAA national championship Monday night. This made you the only coach to win two titles at two schools.
People of the Commonwealth of Kentucky have reminded me of that a million times now.
OK, that's kind of a big deal.
But it's not like one of their players, sophomore guard Kevin Ware, could not finish the tournament after suffering one of the most gruesome injuries the sports world has seen. Rallying a team after such heartbreak to win a championship shows some pretty good coaching.
You got me again, Rick.
All right Pitino, a coach only becomes a legend in the sport of basketball if he is voted in to something called the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. Ever been to Springfield, Mass., Rick?
Come on, man; you're killing me.
OK, OK, if you pull this off then you are having the ultimate week: Did you have a horse run in the Santa Anita Derby last weekend, win the race and earn a berth in the Kentucky Derby?
Really?
OK, Rick Pitino, you need to stop it. You are making us all look bad.
