March Madness!!!
Comes so quick and goes by so fast, I am always reminded how fast the year is going once the tournament arrives.
None the less, this tournament has been a lot of close games and upsets as usual.
I live for the upsets!
To be honest, I didn’t even do a bracket this year or watch all the games but I kept up with how the teams are doing on both the men and women sides.
VA Tech had a heartbreaking loss against Duke, Duke had a heartbreaking loss against Michigan State.
Auburn and UVA surprised everybody! lol I am glad a VA school is still in the tournament representing.
The losses however, are constant reminders that the seniors, players who will leave and enter the draft that these are their final games representing their respective school. The hard work, dedication, sacrifice it takes to play at a high level and not win the ultimate title is somewhat frustrating but also bittersweet. Players give their all on the court and make their families, coaches proud. Use the loss as fuel and motivation because the journey is not over, in some cases it is just the beginning.
Since Duke lost, the big question will be.. Is Zion Williamson staying or leaving for the NBA. I think he should complete his college career, he will have a degree and opportunities to fall back just in case the NBA doesn’t work out for him.. ( I know he will do great in the NBA). No one can take your education or intelligence from you. 🙂
It is amazing to see how many people fill out brackets only to see more than half broken in the first week of play lol. I love that about the tournament because you never know which teams will be super hot and surprise you and which teams will go super cold.
The entire tournament is fun to watch with family, friends, college associates, in some way it brings us altogether. Sports in a way I know for me is a outlet to not think about what is bothering me at the moment, clear my head and just enjoy the game in front of me. Basketball for me has always been that way. (first love).
As the final four approaches which I will watch, this is the time teams bring their ultimate A game. We will crown a new national champion once again.
Let me not forget out the Women!, UCONN is dominating as usual! One of my favorite programs to watch, it doesn’t surprise me at all, they are having a phenomenal year. Go Huskies!! 🙂
