These Bozos Won't Stop Trying To Ruin The Perfect Event: Charlie Baker Says 'Progress Is Being Made' Towards A 72 Or 76 Team NCAA Tournament

I made a promise that I will blog these updates under the premise that I will call anyone and everyone a bozo who thinks this is a good idea. Actually, we need to bring in the heavy artillery here. The only way to sum up this idea comes from our beloved Will Compton: 

Charlie Baker in this scenario would be Mintz, staring off into the distance as this happens. I can't stress how stupid this all is. We're talking about ruining - yes ruining - the best thing in sports. Spare me the argument 'it's just 2 or 4 more games, what's wrong with that?' Simple. We already have it! There's 30 regular season games. There's conference tournaments. Win those games. Conference tournaments are play-in games. We hear it every single goddamn season, especially when it's the garbage 8/9 game in the ACC. We don't need to expand the NCAA Tournament because of conference realignment and commissioners whining that their 11th best team didn't get in. I will never feel bad for a team left out of a 68-team tournament because they didn't win enough. 

Not to mention the whole expansion thing ruins even more of the regular season and conference tournaments. It's a battle I have with every person who says college basketball's regular season doesn't matter. It does. Wins and losses matter for seeding and to make a Tournament. We don't know who the bubble teams are. And, yes, teams can 'afford' a loss, but that's because they get wins. You expand, even by 4 or 8, and those losses matter less and less. No one wants that. 

And the biggest thing? We're talking about adding teams who won't win titles. When the fuck did we get this soft and dumb as a society where we feel the need to expand all these playoffs. What's so wrong with saying, hey, you're average, you don't get in? I don't care about the money (greed) from commissioners, NCAA, TV, everyone associated with this. You are costing fans what we love about the event and sport.
