Spreading the Word

I've been contending for a long, long time that March Madness is the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, and now I'm hearing the same thing from more and more people.  That's not to say that I came up with the idea or that you heard it here first or anything.  The point is that it's a natural way for hoops and sports lovers to think about the Big Dance. But if you want some serious evidence that the concept is widely adopted, check this out. Even Google is talking about it that way. I don't really use iGoogle, but I would be all about that gadget if I did. Plus, I know a few people whose companies block all sports Internet sites.  I'm thinking this might be a nice way to keep tabs on the tourney from inside one of those Mordac-run shops, because I don't think even they would block Google.  Of course, if you treat the first two days of the tournament as religious holidays and take time off every year, it's a non-issue, but that's not practical for everyone, either.  Either way, I like more ways to keep tabs on the Tourney, and I hope you are as psyched for the Madness as I am.
