We Officially Have Brackets, So Naturally We Have A Coach Asking His Team To 'Socially Distance From Females' To Get Ready For March Madness
That right there is one of the most beautiful sights one can see. Brackets. Do I care that it's mid-major basketball? Fuck no. I love mid-major basketball. It means the greatest 3 weeks are right around the corner and nearly 365 days after we had it ripped from us on March 12, it's back. Conference tournaments start THIS WEEK. The last time we saw conference tournaments, this was the image that will be with us forever:
The St. John's mascot sitting by himself at MSG as the Creighton/St. John's game got canceled at halftime. But now we have not 1, but 2 brackets - the Horizon and America East.
I could talk about how much I love the America East title game. That 11am start on championship Saturday starts one of my absolute favorite days of the year. But we're here to talk about what won't be happening thanks to Oakland head coach Greg Kampe:
In other words, no sex. Can't say I blame him. Oakland actually got through the entire season without a pause and without a game being cancelled. Pretty unheard of this year. Just a hilarious quote from Kampe. 'Socially distanced from females' which sums up a decent amount of people reading this. What I do want to know is the exact terminology he used. I'd guess he said 'guys no fucking.' Seems like a quote Kampe would use instead.
I'm going to be selfish here but I agree with Kampe. Do whatever it takes to give us a regular March. I need it. I can't go another year without tournaments. I just can't. It's already going to be weird for me to not have a rooting interest, I need games. Oakland has a bye as the 3 seed, they can't take any risks. Bubble up, say no to the females for a couple of weeks and try to make a run. March is here folks.
