If you don’t like March Madness, then I only have two things to say… First, sorry about this post then. You won’t like it. Feel free to move on. But come back tomorrow when I have gotten this basketball frenzy out of my system. And two, don’t be crazy! March Madness is amazing. Even if you aren’t that into college basketball. Because frankly, you don’t have to be.
It is not hard to fill out a bracket. They list the seeds for you right there. You know who is number 1 and who is dead last. Yes there are upsets and if you don’t know what high seeded team played a weak conference or what low seeded team actually has a percentage of 3 point success, it really doesn’t matter. You could probably pick the highest seeded team for your entire bracket and come out just as ok as anyone else. That’s why it’s March Madness. That’s why it is so maddening.
Or, you could do as my friend Tami did once and just pick the team with the mascot you think would win in a fight. It probably has the same success rate as any other asinine system. Plus you might win money. Who doesn’t want to win money (not that I condone excessive gambling. Please play responsibly).
If you are interested in a bracket at all, here are some links to help guide you to a potentially successful bracket. Though I feel it’s all up to the stars. Then workout and eat like a champ. There is the heart of a winner in all of us. I consider myself a Cinderella story, really…
