This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I've had a March Madness of my own. by saintapollonia

I have been watching one game per season tournament (since 1990) per day. I pick based on interesting matchup, excitement of game, or just because.... Truthfully, I don't watch much TV programming or movies, mainly because of my hearing loss and business of time. But, I enjoy sports.

It's a nice diversion for me. Really, because most games were when I had more free time and less worldly impositions, I do recall most of the games. But that doesn't destroy the fun, even though I know the outcome. It's interesting to note changes in the game: pace, how they were officiated, etc.

Why start at 1990? Why not? Also, so I started with the LMU vs Michigan game.
Hahahahahahhaha Fuck you Michigan.

Actually, it was an enjoyable game to watch.
Other games I've picked so far include: 1996 Purdue vs Western Carolina. Damn, even now I keep rooting against the Boilers.
