I know it's kind of hokey but I make sure I stay up for the "One Shining Moment" at the end of the NCAA Tourny final every year, no matter how bad the game. anyone else?

"One Shining Moment"
David Goodloe Barrett

The ball is tipped
and there you are
you're running for your life
you're a shooting star
And all the years
no one knows
just how hard you worked
but now it shows...
(in) One Shining Moment, it's all on the line
One Shining Moment, there frozen in time

But time is short
and the road is long
in the blinking of an eye
ah that moment's gone
And when it's done
win or lose
you always did your best
cuz inside you knew...
(that) One Shining Moment, you reached deep inside
One Shining Moment, you knew you were alive

Feel the beat of your heart
feel the wind in your face
it's more than a contest
it's more than a race...

And when it's done
win or lose
you always did your best
cuz inside you knew...
(that) One Shining Moment, you reached for the sky
One Shining Moment, you knew
One Shining Moment, you were willing to try
One Shining Moment, you knew
One Shining Moment...

    I used to tape them on VHS when they started. Once they started using guest singers, it lost some of it's luster but I still like it. I have trouble staying up for it now. :lol:
