2009 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament

With February in the past, and spring around the corner, that can only mean one thing: MARCH MADNESS! Nothing was better than calling off sick to school or work with a mysterious illness for the first Thursday and Friday of the tournament. I myself used to run a bracket poll every year and seemingly could throw away my bracket after the first two days. Like always , with a slew of teams competing at the top, it should make for another exciting year of tournament games. There is nothing better than watching a 12 seed upset a 5 or seeing George Mason or Davidson make a Cinderella run deep into the tourney. With all that being said, here is Uncle Buck’s tournament preview…
