Was it called "The Bricklayer"?

...and people will remember you for all time

Anastasio explained the song was "Dedicated with much love to the incredible Darius Washington, Jr." because it's "about his experience when he missed those two free throws at the end of the Final Four Michigan State game. We love him, and we can relate."

CUSA championship game vs Louisville, not Final Four vs Michigan State. If you're going to write and dedicate a song to someone, put down the bong long enough to get the facts straight. Anyways this is kinda old news, I think we had a thread about this back towards the end of last year.

The guy's probably smoked enough weed to choke a horse. I'm surprised he even knows who Washington is.

Maybe it's led to him "losing time".

He choked on some crucial free throws to our biggest rival for the conference championship.

Good thing you weren't on Beale STreet with the Tiger fans that night when Darius Washington Jr and his dad made their appearance ...People might have hurt you:

"It was his dad who cried with him in a vacant room at the arena, who let him scream and throw his shoes against the wall, who finally hugged him and said, "You're not in this alone." It was his dad who made Darius watch the replays of his failure, again and again, to confront his anguish. And it was his dad who took his son for a walk through the Saturday-night crowds on Beale Street a few hours later. "That was a risky move," the father recalls, "but when I did, everybody just mobbed him. Don't worry about it! We'll get 'em next time! Nothing negative. We were just letting them know that we're not going to run and hide from this."

It was his idiot dad who convinced him to leave early the next year thinking he was an NBA player.

I will however give him this; he brought us back in that game.
