| Houston, we have a ZZzzzblem. |
I’m going to let you all in on a secret: college basketball
season starts in November.
I’ll give you a sec to wipe off the drapes because your mind
just exploded.
…
Yeah, it’s true! College basketball DOES exist outside of
the month of March. Could’ve fooled me. I cannot think of any other sport that
is so heavily focused on such a small portion of its season. That one month
though! Seems like all of a sudden you can’t escape it. Perhaps that’s the
point. The powers that be realized long ago that college basketball is the
lamest major college sport and decided to just commoditize the shit out of its
post season in hopes of attracting more mainstream acceptance. There is no
doubt in my mind that the NCAA went down to Sterling Draper Cooper Pryce one
sunny afternoon wearing their finest fedoras and simply said, “Don, tell us
what we want.”
