Sue Bird was on ESPN commenting on the Syracuse - Louisville game, which was Louisville's first game after being designated the #1 team in the weekly rankings.

She quoted (without attribution) Shakespeare to the effect that "heavy lies the crown". I looked that up. It is a crass version of what Henry IV really said, which is:

"Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown."

Louisville won the game comfortably, so I guess the crown wasn't either heavy or resting uneasily. Bard Bill (and I suppose King Henry as well) can stop rolling in their graves and go back to sleep.
