		<description>One of the beautiful aspects of life in Korea is being able to escape from the unnecessary hype of over-hyped college sports in the USA.  Until this post, I think I'd luckily only seen one reference to the damn tournament.

It's also nice to be able to go down to the ballpark here in Korea, right before the game, get some nice box-seats, eat and drink your fill while enjoying a ballgame, all without getting wallet-raped.  Plus, the chance of having to gA-rod and his overpaid sissy friends is basically zero.  Damn Yankees. (Sorry Robert.)</description>

		<description>people watch march madness, because everyone has a shot, if you're in the bracket, and lose one-go home-rules, means, you have to stay perfect.

College football is fixed.

First of all, your season is fixed by your schedule and your conference, made before you play.  Then, there are polls.  No playoffs. If your team is Idaho, you're Idaho.  Never in hell will you ever win the National Title.  No way, even by math.

One of the greatest mysteries to me as a human being, was wondering why America loves football, particularly college football (as I understand NFL popularity pales in comparison), so much, when the rules on who becomes champ is quite honestly the most non-objective is all of sports.

and, it never will be objective.  American PASS-ball is a game where you probably can't play 2 games in 1 week.</description>

		<description>When does college football start up again?  Judging by the ratings, I'm not the only one waiting.

http://tvbythenumbers.com/2008/03/21/nielsen-ratings-thu-mar-20-ncaa-no-deal-for-cbs/3030

Thursday night’s NCAA matchups averaged 8.45 million for the primetime portion, down ~20% from last year’s 10.48 million.

Since the U.S. population is well over 300 million, that means less than 3% of the nation has caught the "madness."</description>
