Just 3 days ago one of the greatest sporting events of the year came to an end with the North Carolina Tar Heels winning it all.
March Madness starts with the greatest 4 days in sports – rounds 1 and 2 of the tournament are like a holiday, only better – fewer relatives and it lasts 4 days! So many games, so little time!
Sports is the ultimate reality TV – no script can ever match what sports delivers.
The detractors of the tournament – mostly talking heads on TV that talk to hear themselves talk like to worry about the 66th team (don’t even get me started on the stupidity of the 65th team) or the 67th team. Mainly these are guys from big schools that think more big conference big schools should be in the tournament instead of the St Mary’s and San Diego State’s of the world. I get that small schools don’t play the tough schedules because of their conferences providing little to no competition and political BS of big schools not playing “mid-majors” but when go 27-3 you deserve a shot. That’s what the tournament is all about. The odds of that team – the “last in” winning the title is exceptionally slim…just like the chances if that last team in is the 7th or 8th best team in a so called “power conference” that plays an unbalanced schedule anyway. Let the “little guy” in and give them their shot. It’s what makes the tournament great.
