March Madness: The best that baseball has to offer

This is the month of March. To many people, that brings one thing to mind: March Madness. It does not bring that to my mind. Hearing my friends talk excitedly about it, I imagined it to be a baseball tournament. Turns out it’s not. It’s basketball.

Now that you understand my level of interest in sports, you’ll see how uncharacteristic it was of me to fill out something called a “bracket.” Filling it out posed a problem, as I know nothing of college basketball or team rankings. My initial thought was to fill it out at random. But that’s just crazy. You have to put thought into it. Have to have a method. So I chose the teams with the longest names.

Until last night I was ahead of a friend who spends what I deem an inordinate amount of time keeping up with sports. We’re now neck and neck. So in the words of Brian Regan, “Go my favorite sports team! Score a goal-basket-unit!”
