The basketball fun would have started tonight, but this year, we can only dream of what could have been (after the year Syracuse had, it is a great year to dream:). So, I will find a game from the past to enjoy tonight, and even if I know the outcome, I will cheer on the winner. I will feel the madness that March usually brings.
Who would have thought that watching reruns of college basketball would be all we had to satisfy our sports cravings? It certainly is madness!

Among all of the sports drama, Tom Brady announced he wasn’t returning to the Patriots to add to it all! We will make it through all of this! Think of how AMAZING sporting events will be (even more so) after this is all done. I am so looking forward to the world coming back together when this passes!

I’m a hockey gal and this is hard!!! But I used to date a sports writer for a small paper who was so into March Madness that for the time we dated, I watched all the games. He always made me pick a team- I knew NOTHING about their seasons. My favorite team though was Gonzaga-GO ZAGS! because they had the best name. I usually based my predictions on uniforms or names. Thanks for the walk down memory lane!

When my daughters were little, they would predict the winner by the team with the best mascot. They loved Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks.:)
