Mad about March Madness

I admit it. I am obsessed with March madness.

I have games on the TV and the computer and the iPAD---all at the same time. I even went so far as to take a trip to Vegas so I could bet on the games (and I was successful! Hurrah!).

What is it that I like so much about March madness? I think it’s all the talk and discussion before, during and after the games. It’s fun to connect with friends on Facebook and declare team loyalty and “animosity” for the favorite. Who doesn’t love VCU and Butler? Long live the underdog!

The tournament also provides a great diversion from the more serious problems facing our world. It’s a good day when the biggest decision a fan has to make is which team to cheer for.

And sometimes these special events in life are more about building memories with friends and family, that's what is most important after all. Time to train the kiddos while there's still time - "Go Huskies!"
