Fort Sumpter Surrenders
As we reach the 150th anniversary of the capitulation of Fort Sumter, it seemed only fitting to receive this horrible news that may have ended Villanova's inevitable championship run.
Villanova forward Curtis Sumpter will miss the rest of the NCAA Tournament after a MRI exam Monday revealed he has a torn ligament in his left knee.Sean May is thanking his lucky stars that he doesn't have to face the Beast from the Big East.
Sumpter was hurt in Villanova's second-round win over Florida on Sunday, leaving the game after 12 minutes after scoring eight points and twice tumbling to the court and clutching his left knee. Sumpter, the team's second-leading scorer (15.3 points) and leading rebounder (7.2 rebounds) didn't play again, instead cheering his teammates on from the bench.
And with this news, I can all but kiss that Roget goodbye, no homo, unless the other 11 Wildcats (who I can't name) decide to hold Fort Sumpter down. No homo again.
