March Madness Baby!

It’s March Madness! The time of year when people from Kansas to Kentucky, and Tobacco Road to the East and West fill out their brackets and stay glued to college basketball. Over the next few weeks we will see the highs and lows of tournament play. Digger, Herbert, Bilas, Vitale, Lunardi, Timmy B., and Raftery will keep us appraised of the latest movers and shakers. From Cinderella’s to the big guns it’s all there.

For those of us who grew up in basketball states it doesn’t get any better. For us this is a major bowl, the World Series and a Super Bowl all rolled into one. For every kid like me, who grew up playing basketball on a grass court with a backboard on the side of the house, to kids playing in city parks, or taking shots at a goal on the back of a barn, this is what it’s all about.

Can’t wait until the Final Four and CBS’ finale music and video tribute, “One Shining Moment”. Good luck to your team and remember, on any given night it can happen. Let’s be humble winners and gracious losers. All right where’s the remote control?

Okay so I’m going with UNC, KY, OSU and Michigan State to the Final Four. We will see how long that lasts and I will probably regret not taking Mizzou, or Kansas! Go Cats.
