What a great March Madness it was last season as Virginia, Texas Tech, Auburn, and Michigan State fought their way to the Final Four. It was one of my favorite tournaments of all-time.
Granted, college basketball has significant issues, but these three weeks are what basketball fans live for year in and year out. It is a pure slice of Americana.
How sad it will not be part of our collective American souls this year because the pussy grabber almost six weeks ago couldn’t distract his attention long enough from trolling Nancy Pelosi to order some test kits for President Obama’s then $22.5 trillion economy.
If only Pussy Grabber could have just this once elevated himself from his fourth grade level norm and been presidential… maybe we’d be having March Madness. Maybe the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Maybe the Masters in Augusta with Jimmy Nance.
Putin is laughing his ass off. Even he couldn’t have envisioned that getting Trump elected could so thoroughly eviscerate every thread of what used to make America great on every level.
It would have been a great tournament this year. Complete and total parity unless you considered Kansas noteworthy special. I didn’t.
Anyway…in case you weren’t paying attention this was AP’s Top Sixteen this previous Monday before the tournament was cancelled.
1 Kansas
2 Gonzaga
3 Dayton How screwed do you think the Dayton Flyers feel right now? Ohio should go blue on this alone.
4 Florida State
5 Baylor
6 San Diego State
7 Creighton
8 Kentucky
9 Michigan State 2019 national semi-finalist
10 Duke
11 Villanova

14 BYU
15 Louisville
16 Virginia 2019 defending national champion
Both Auburn and Texas Tech swooned late in the season. Auburn would have still made the field. Not sure about Texas Tech.
We’ll never know.
