Yep, it’s here again. Love it or hate it, here we are again. NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament also known as March Madness. Or for most teams, March Sadness.
All the discussions about which conference is the best, which coach, which player and on and on and on. Nobody really agrees and unless your team wins, everybody cheated.
The debates about teams loaded with one and done freshman vs upperclassmen dominate teams. This may be the last year for this debate as the NBA is looking to change their outlook on drafting talent right out of high school. The reason isn’t really altruistic or is it? The corruption of agents in youth leagues?
Anyway, let’s see how this year plays out. IMHO, an 18 yo needs a lot of assistance learning about life and handling the type of money they can earn as pros. It takes a strong mom to keep these young men in line. And some of the dads(IMHO) are worse than the agents.
Pick your teams if you haven’t already. Us homers don’t change. Even when the odds aren’t really in our favor. We have faith in our coach and our players. In we don’t win, it’s because we was robbed! Damned refs had it in for us. Or they always give that coach or that team all the breaks.
