March Madess.

It's really March Sadness.

Those post season conference basketball tournaments are a waste of time.

Hey, you win your conference during the regular season, that's good enough.

Why do you have to prove it again in a tournament against teams you've already played twice during the regular season?

Oh yes, I forgot, greed. Conferences, schools and, of course, whores like ESPN have to make money.

Do away with conference tournaments and expand the NCAA tournament by a week to include only the best teams in the country.

Are you telling me that teams like Austin Peay and Coppin State deserve to be in? Are you telling me that Coppin State is better than bubble teams and other teams that didn't make the NCAA tournament? So what if Coppin State won their conference tournament. What kind of rinky dink conference do they play in anyway? How tough is their schedule? And Coppin State was in the twenty loss club this season. Why should a team with so many losses even be allowed on a basketball court?

Just when you thought post season football was the worst thing to hit college sports(no playoff system and meaningless bowl games), along comes the NCAA basketball tournament.
