I wanted that to keep going the next day. I watched every sports show I could get my hands on to see what they said. And I was (somewhat) disappointed. It was good, but it wasn't perfect. Because Watson was the #1 topic of conversation.
And that sticks out as wrong in my mind. Not morally, but factually. I saw that night. I saw the tweets in which coaches/GMs from the Giants, Saints, Cardinals, and Texans all became sullen and dismayed that Kansas City beat them all to the punch and grabbed Mahomes. I saw the live look-in to the war room in Kansas City, with fist pounding, celebration, smiles, and applause. Then I saw Houston's. Straight faces. Stunned faces. Half smiles. They all looked relieved that they didn't miss out on a QB more than they were excited and pumped for the selection they just made. THAT'S what I remember.

Watching the Cubs win the World Series is the only thing I'd personally place above that night.
When I get to see KC win a Super Bowl I will move the Cubbies to slot #2.
