Well, this has always been my favorite day of the year…the first day of the NCAA tournament.

This year is a little different. With the war starting last night it just takes some of the “fun” out of the day. I used to skip school every year, order pizza and watch the first day of the tournament non-stop. The first day always holds some surprises. A few years ago I was lucky enough to actually get to a first round site and watch two days of games in Cleveland. What a thrill! I don’t think anything epitomizes the essence of sports like the NCAA tourney.

I’m a little tired of the fog…
