    Agreed. Instead, we beat the "best team of all time." Therefore...

    I think those 91-92 teams have to be in the conversation for greatest of all time. I think Laettner is a top 10 college player ever and I think Hurley is a top 5 point guard ever and Grant Hill might be a top 25 player all time.

    Green Jello has a song for that. It isn't very good, but they have a song for that.

    The hubby and I got engaged on April 1st, 1991, the night Duke won it all for the first time. He didn't ask me to marry him, he just told everyone at the watch party that we were going to celebrate Duke's win by getting married. He was across the room from me at the time. Friends thought it was a April Fool's joke. One of them called across the room asking me if we were really getting married or if it was an April Fool's joke. Me: I don't know, Honey, is that an April Fool's joke? Hubby: No. Me: I guess we're getting married.

    I believe I've posted that story before but I maintain it's one of the least romantic marriage proposals ever. But effective. We have a poster autographed by the entire '91 team congratulating us. It is not for sale.

    Tomorrow marks 30 years since we got engaged and 33 years since our first date. Yes, our first date was on April Fool's Day.

    Seems like most of the dates in my dating life were on April Fool's. They were not, but they felt like it many times.

    Today marks nine years since my wife and I got engaged. It was the first weekend of my first spring break as a teacher, and we had planned a special weekend of staycation activities in and around Atlanta. I showed up at her door on Saturday morning to pick her up for brunch and surprised her in my tuxedo with an expensive rock to give her. I'm still quite pleased with our series of decisions.

    So you didn't know if he was being straight up on your first date and your wedding date until he showed up.

    Perhaps it's an elaborate ruse and he is still biding his time.
