As everyone else who is out there try to figure out how they want to do their brackets and when they are going to find the time to do it all, JOIN THE CLUB! Here it is two days before the tip off of the first game and I’ve just gotten my first entries in. I still have so much to do. Maybe it’s time I barricade myself in a secluded space until the madness ends. My wife might even actually prefer that!
My first brackets are pretty generic personally. However my predictor is having some fun at my expense. It wants me to give Drexel the nod over the Illini. But who am I to question the power of the poison predictor. All hail the stats! Too bad basketball is often about the stats that fail as the pressure builds. But then again, isn’t that the fun of the madness.
So maybe I should just pray to basketball gods. Maybe this year they’ll listen. But I’m not going to hold my breath.
So off to my bunker I go. I just wish I would have made it into the perfect man-cave for March Madness. Five large flat screens. A large refrigerator. Comfortable chairs I’ll rarely sit in as I yell at the refs. And a straight jacket my wife can put me into it to wheel me to bed between each period of this madness.
In reality, I used to worry about going mad. Then I just realized it’s nothing compared to the madness I put myself through each year in the glorious month of March.
So embrace the madness.
