March Madness this weekend
Four great games. Too bad that CBS can't do a better job getting color analysts.
Billy Packer and Greg Gumbel have tried to say a number of times that the all the poor play by the Big 10 this year (11 teams playing full seasons of about 30 games each) is not indicative of the quality of the league. Instead, since Michigan State pulled off two upsets this weekend, that means the Big 10 was a great conference this year.
At times like this one, one is reminded of the axiom that thinking is hard which is why so few people try it.
(Note -- Wisconsin didn't do anything special. They simply won two more games than expected because the tougher seeds were upset by someone else. The Badgers never beat a team seeded better than a 10.)

I'm convinced that most talking heads are merely gum flappers paid to fill time with their own views. (Billy Packer, especially!) I've suggested, without response or success, that the Networks tell their talking heads to shut up at times. So, I now watch games with the sound muted. It appears the Networks once again think we are too vision impaired to see and too stupid to understand on our own.
GO MSU!
