March Madness

College basketball fever has arrived with the 64 best teams in the country going to the NCAA tournament in what is dubbed as "March Madness". Number 5 seed in the midwest, the Butler Bulldogs, have had an early win in the first round to advance to the final 32. A win on Saturday will take us to the "Sweet 16" and only four games away from a national championship. (I write 4 games tongue in cheek - those games would invariably be against teams such as Florida (last years champions) and perennial favourites such as Duke and North Carolina). But hey, keep on believin'.

If Butler got to the "Final Four" I would debate flying back to Indy - not that I would see the games live (they will be played in another city and besides, tickets to the NCAA tournament are some of the most expensive and hardest to acquire in all of American sports). But it would be great to be a part of the action on campus.
