Imo, depends on how you watch it. I watch it because I love seeing the early upsets and close calls that cause chaos. The disparity in talent and "sloppy basketball" that causes that is part of the fun.

I consider March Madness one of the most exciting sports times of the year.

Always like seeing the little guy pull off the upset.

I don't know why so many people hate 'Murica.

It used to be.

Used to be my favorite sporting event. Looked forward to the NCAA tournament more than anything else and I watched every game.

Just not the same. Hard to generate compelling story lines when the best players are only there for 1 year.
This is probably a layer of a recent comment someone in basketball media made. Can’t remember who it was but they were talking about international players being far more prepared for the league and competing right away than the home grown players. I think that shows up in the college game. USA is AAU centric right now and kids aren’t learning the fundamentals of the game in that context. Now add in the only one year in college circumstance on top of that and they’re really getting a crash course in winning basketball once they hit the highest level. Ultimately it’s fans of the game that are punished.

Well, he has a few months to find it. Years ago, I would have loved adding him to Embiid and either the Simmons/Harden/Maxey player but I don’t know what he has left and for how long.

Without a doubt. Nothing gets close to the all day nonstop action in a single elimination tournament. The 1st round is great television

A March Madness trip to Vegas on first or second weekend is a bucket list trip for me. Someday.
Went to the NBA All-Star game in Vegas.

I have never felt so unsafe in my life and that's saying something considering I grew up in Compton and have visited the Middle East.

If these gang up on pasta shit don’t stop I’m goin to Jesse smollet myself!!!
My guy, know your audience.

You are in the NBA thread.

You would probably get a more equal split from people who are NCAA Fanatics or if you posted this on one of their threads.
