March Madness is upon us once again and for the first time in years, I decided NOT to enter a bracket pool. Getting my ass kicked over and over was getting old. That being said, here are some thoughts:
- Also getting old are the countless yahoo sports talk radio hosts and their callers who actually think that the rest of us give a shit about who their bracket picks are. It gets worse every year.
- I propose a new rule for basketball: no matter how many they have left, each team should be only allowed two 30-second timeouts in the final minute of a game. I just watched the end of the Xavier-Purdue second round game, and between the endless number of timeouts and the dumbass refs who couldn't figure out substitutions or the clock, it was the longest last minute of a basketball I've ever sat through.
- You've just moved on to the Sweet 16, not the Final Four - calm down with the celebration.
- Will CBS please retire "One Shining Moment" from our culture? If there is a cheesier, more outdated song out there, I haven't heard it.
- Does Bobby Knight not own a coat and tie? He looks like an idiot in his stupid trademark sweater while his ESPN studio cohorts are wearing suits. And another thing, Bobby: expanding the tournament field from 64 to 128 is an absolutely moronic idea.
