Just heard from a little bird that the NCAA basketball tournament is considering fielding 96 teams, instead of 64. Not sure if it would happen this year, or next. Hmmm. Possibly, a first-round bye for the top 32 teams? I don't like that idea. I'm a big fan of first-round upsets- one and done.

If they go to 96 I say they may as well let every team in NCAA into the tournament. I know there are something like 350 teams but if they let that many in just let the whole bunch in somehow.

What gets me the most is the people who scream and hollar that a football playoff would never work because it's wrong to ask fans to travel to 4 separate locations for 4 weeks is asking too much kill me. Basketball travels for 4 weeks so why can't football? Fans travel and will go places to support their team.

It's amazing how every argument football makes to keep a playoff from happening basketball does those exact things with no problem.
