March Madness Cancelled?

Recommended Posts

What is a fair price for China to pay for ruining the month of March?

I suggest sending a bill for $1 Qaudrillion and if they don't pay it, we kill them all.

Let our debt with their country be null and void...

Both men and women are done. 

Damnit!  I was really looking forward to the women's tourney this year.  Super competitive with a record number of dunks.

This was a very sad sad ending for Iowa, winter sports.  The men's and women's basketball teams along with wrestling were some of their best ever.  They had an opportunity to go deep in both basketball tourneys and most likely would have won the wrestling championship.  It all comes to an abrupt end.

Common sense...  There is WAY too much money involved to cancel it...  They might play in empty arenas, but canceling will not happen...

 Nice call.

Does CBS get a refund for what they paid to broadcast it?  That's a crap ton of money for nothing.

MN beating Iowa today would have had no bearing on their performance in the NCAA tourney.  Iowa has a team that can play well enough to go a couple rounds into the tourney.

I would assume they do. CBS didn’t cancel. Probably some kind of insurance on it.

I would assume that too.  I know Vegas is going to be losing a ton of money also.

Nope. One and done. Way over-rated. The f’n gophers had them dead to the ropes and then totally fukced that up.

Imagine how funny it would be if there was a breakthrough tomorrow: “March madness is back!  Except for the women’s, no one is tuning in for a 56-48 barn burner, they’re still cancelled”

Duke whooped KU.  Until KU reciprocates Duke is the national Champion.  Or Stephen F. Austin.

I can see this continuing.  You can keep some space.   As long as no fans.

When I was watching an hour or so ago the announcers mentioned it.  Unless I misheard but I'm 99% certain that after today there will be no more crowds at this event and I think they said the next three events up to the Masters.

SC wimmen's coach was saying they feel they should be crowned national champs.  KU is undisputed #1 right now so they have the same argument.

Good post Wiffle.  Great story that just came out is Kevin Love just donated 100k to the hourly workers at the arena he plays at for Cleveland.  👍

If I were the head of whoever makes the college basketball video game, I would organize an NCAA esports tournament. Actual field. Have a selection show and everything. Then have a field of 64 geeks with a team each go at it.

People are bout to be very bored stuck at home. It would get more eyes than usual.
