The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

I look forward to this weekend every year. Most of America loves Super Bowl Sunday, me being one of them. However, their will always be a special place in my heart for Selection Sunday. Nothing is as nerve racking as sitting and patiently watching at waiting to see if your team will be selected to go to the Big Dance. For those lucky teams that have guaranteed their spot in the tournament with great seasons, tomorrow is all about finding out where they play. Other teams were smart enough to battle through the conference tournaments to guarantee their spots in the tourney. Then their are those others, that had a great season, didn't win their Conference Tournament, and have to spend their day waiting and contemplating for the nearly hour long show to see if they made the cut.

Selection Sunday is a great day! The day shows why the Big Dance will always be more fair than the corrupt BCS. To me it is one of the most wonderful times of the year, when 68 teams get to battle head-to-head until 1 team is left standing on April 2, earning the title of 2012 Men's College Basketball Champions!
