March is Here!

 

            The best month of the year is finally here! Soon we will be able to compete with our friends by filling out brackets to predict who will take home the NCAA tournament. March truly is the best month of the year.

            Not only is the biggest college tournament going on, but MLB spring training is also underway and Opening Day kicks off at the end of the month as well. The NHL and NBA are both coming down to the end of their seasons where teams could either make or break into the playoffs. 

            But the best thing about March is March Madness. Whether you follow college basketball or not, everyone is into the NCAA tournament. There is just a certain vibe surrounding this tournament that makes it better than every other playoff. 

            For me, it is the non-stop action that is what makes the tournament so great especially in the first couple of days of the tournament. Although it is just the start of the tournament, in my opinion the first and second rounds are the best rounds of the NCAA tournament because of all the action.

            Also, it's March and anything can happen and I mean ANYTHING. Upsets happen left and right and when that #13 seed upsets the #4 seed and ruins everyone's bracket, March just gets even better. This is what makes the tournament so great.

            Any given day a higher-ranked team could have an off-day and all of a sudden that lower seed ends their season and pulls off the upset. Throw the regular seasons in the garbage, when the tournament starts, everyone has a record of 0-0 and it is a totally different season compared to the one they just had. 

            There is nothing not to like about march madness, unless your team loses or your bracket gets busted. At the end of the day, you are never going to have a perfect bracket and you just have to enjoy March Madness while you can. There is no other playoff or tournament that has this much hype surrounding it. February is over and March is here!
