What can you say if you love hoops? 52 games in six days. Twelve hours of hoops on Thursday and Friday! Nail biters, blowouts...a 15th seed getting to the Sweet 16. Underdogs, favorites, mid-majors advancing . Didn't finish till midnight last night with Duke-Creighton.
Besides the obvious excitement and quality of play, two things really jumped out at me. The poise of these young kids in big situations with millions watching. Unreal ! Not to be overlooked is the zest, zeal and enthusiasm of the fans. Many traveling across country to cheer their schools on. The raw emotion is not witnessed at such a level elsewhere except in rare cases. More to come.
Hey, and just think, we just reached the Round of 16. Ok, now take a deep breath, watch the Heat for 3 days, and be ready for more mayhem Thursday.
