The Best Two Days Of The Year

032008bracket.jpg
I make a lot of jokes on this website, but here is something 100 percent serious: If you're not into the first four days of the NCAA Tournament, please don't bother talking to me this weekend. Or maybe ever. If you're not spending your day at work today sneaking out to watch Temple play at 12:30 or maybe watching games online using a proxy

The moment I was 100 percent sure the Iraq War was an awful idea was when George Bush decided he wanted to start it on the first day of the NCAA Tournament. Clearly, he was a freedom-hating warmonger who interrupted the greatest sports days of the year with a stupid little war; I knew he couldn't have a post-invasion plan. Maybe if John Kerry had said that at a debate, we wouldn't have had to live through four more years of Bush.

Temple ate its pregame meal last night its game today is so early; apparently the Owls also are in a hotel somewhere in Wyoming for games at the Pepsi Center in Denver.

Temple's at 12:30, Joe's and 'Nova are tomorrow night. There are 29 other games today and tomorrow, and I have no doubt once again watching 'em will be a blast.

Update: My buddy Dave wrote a March Madness column for the Daily Local; the website is actually working right now, so read it before it breaks again.
