7 Warning Signs of March Madness

1. good morning from Omaha,

   our family and I mean everyone from my cousin and son in colorado, my brother in ARK, sister in TX, uncles and aunts in FLA a cousin in TX and my mom in MO all get involved in the summit county newspapers bracket tournament. My nieces and nephews start talking trash and there is nothing like hearing your mom talking trash about NCAA tournament picks. We have a ball and it is all good natured fun.

   got to avoid too many chips and salsa and a little bit a pizza goes a long way.

   can’t wait to see how the brackets come out…this is the ONLY time of year I watch basketball of any kind so it had better be special!

   Strive for excellence, nothing but your best!

2. Dear Drew,

   I remember two days several years ago when I had a unique sympton of March Madness. About 3 miles from my use use to be a restraunt called “The White Buffalo” I spent two straight days there to watch every game in the first two rounds. I can’t remember how much fire fries with provolone cheese I ate, or how many crafe’s (hopefully spelled correctly) of Diet Coke I sucked down. I do remember that my bill for both days ran about $60 plus a generous tip for each of the two shift waitresses who waited on me so diligently (helped that I was a regular of the place). Was bummed when The White Buffalo went out of business later that year.

   Now the closest I come to true madness is the ESPN bracket game. Last year after the first two rounds I was in the top 1000 before my brackets got destroyed. I don’t take it too seriously though so when the brackets busted I didn’t feel to bad.

   All the best

3. To the viewers of the room,

   How many of you are going to watch Selection Sunday? If you are is it so you can see C.U. and Northern Colorado are seeded?

   For me I will watch Selection Sunday and yes it is to see C.U. and Northern Colorado’s seedings.

   All the best

4. I’ll be drawing for ESPN.com for selection Sunday. Not sure what yet but there I will be. Was hoping UTEP might get in but their Saturday loss to Memphis in the CUSA championship might have cost them a shot.

5. Dear Drew,

   Thank goodness I can’t type as loudly as I’m yelling right now. C.U. NOT in the NCAA tournament? Did these selection people get a labotomy before they went into seclusion? That has to be case to put so many of the at large teams ahead of the Buffs. Kansas State. the team C.U. beat 3 times gets a 5 seed and we’re left out. This selection commitee must consist of a bunch of Mortimer Snerds (for those who don’t know whom i’m talking about look the name up on Wikipedia).

   6 wins against top 50 teams and they don’t get in. They should fire the entire committee and put in the Geico Cavemen. This should have been so easy to quote the ad “A caveman could do it.”

   Am I upset? That would come under the category of “DUHHHHH!”. Just be glad I have to type this up instead of just running my mouth because right now in the privacy of my own home I am STILL doing what I call the “4-letter aria”. I’ve very likely used all 7 of the words George Carlin once remarked “You couldn’t say on TV” maybe even adding a few new ones onto my list.

   I hope when your next cartoon comes out I’ll be a lot calmer than I am right now.

   All the best

6. Louis,

   Next cartoon is now online. Just for Buffs fans like you who are totally outraged.
