March Madness- The quickest way to lose money gambling

So admit it: your bracket has been screwed since Notre Dame lost. Somehow, I actually got that game right. And then with Georgetown came the start of the weeping for me. Sports Illustrated boldly stated that this is the best tournament in the history of college basketball. Although most of us would beg to differ right now because of the small fortune lost when Villanova lost in the second round, in retrospect we will look back on this year's bracket and see how pure the sport of basketball truly is. You hear many people whose team had an off year (yes, I'm talking about you, UConn) bitch and moan about how many of these teams who win their respective mid-major conferences don't deserve to make it into the tounament, and how instead the field should be limited to teams with "history". These mid-major teams, however, bring out the true underdog spirit that we all love from our favorite movies. So we know that we will definitely have a 5 seed in the championship game, and that these college kids want to cut down these nets more than anything they have ever dreamed of. As a country we should sit around our televisions and watch history being formed, and it will be remembered as this: the best sporting tournament, EVER. And remember kids,
