We made it! Congratulations, everyone!

This all started back on June 26th with America's favorite tire fire -- Wagner. From there, we meandered through the other 60 Division I programs over the course of two months, stopping when necessary for Sour Patch Kid re-fuelings and other vitally important things. It was an exciting time to read the Internet, I tell you; these were the good times, people.

If you want to re-live any of the excitement -- or see it for the first time (if you're a lazy Internet knucklehead) -- I've complied the following handy chart; just click on the name of the team that you want to read about and . . . ta-da! . . . Internet magic will be made:

That's a lot of great stuff. I almost shouldn't give it to you for free. You're a lucky sonofa. . . .

Now, where do we go from here? With schools starting all over the country this week -- I hope you got the latest Trapper Keeper! -- it's just about time to leave 2012 behind and start looking ahead to 2013. (The statute of limitations has run on being able to argue about Massachusetts' tournament seed last May.) So, keep an eye out for "College Crosse's Impossibly Early, Definitely Perfect (Sort of), Rock-Solid (Maybe) Pre-Fall Ball Top-20."

Yup, more countdowns. Only six more months until the season starts, folks. Pray for all of us.
