March Madness



The NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament started yesterday. The Women's Basketball Tournament starts tomorrow. Welcome to March Madness! Sixteen games were played yesterday and 16 more today for the guys.


Did you watch any games yesterday? What did you think of Old Dominion's win over Notre Dame and how will they do in the next round? Who are you pulling for on the men's and women's sides? Are you a basketball fan? If you are, this has to be your favorite time of year!


So here is your assignment. Are you a basketball fan? If you are, who are you pulling for in the tournaments? Why are you pulling for them? If you are not a basketball fan, what would you rather be doing instead of watching hoops? Remember 3-5 sentences and proofread!


Here is some video to get you in the spirit!


I am a big time sports fan, including basketball. It would be nice to see Georgia Tech do well in both the men's and women's tournaments. This is because I am an alumni of Georgia Tech!

I'm not all that into Basketball I don't like watching boys run around in shorts to short for then. I'd much rather be watching football, I can just get into it more then I can basketball. I personally think watching b-ball is boring, football in my opinion is way more exciting.

I for one am not a fan of watching basketball. However, I do enjoy playing the game highly. Though, the most entertaining sport to WATCH would have to be soccer. I love to simply sit, and watch a soccer game. This is much more fun than watching a ball bounce from one hoop to the next.

I am not a basketball fan but my brother is so i know some of the teams. So I guess I would be pulling for ODU. I would choose them because I love their college and if i had to pick it would be them.

Im not a basketball fan. I would rather be laying in bed sleeping or chillen with some of my friends. I dont have time to sit around and watch basketball. During the day I don't even watch tv. The wins don't really matter to me (:

I am not a basketball fan and I feel there isnt a point in the sport. I am more of a football fan. my favorite team are the cowboys. I do think some of the stuff they do with the ball are very unique.

Unknown said...

I like playing basketball but i'm not a fan or big in watching it. My family is big in watching football. I'd probably rather watch football if any sport at all. :)

I wouldn't be very interested in it because I'm not really a big fan of basketball. I think its kind of boring {no offense}. I mean if it is a rainy day and nothing else is on television then I would watch it.

Sorry but I’m not a basketball fan. I’m rally in to baseball and soft ball I just don’t get how to do it and it’s not that interesting to me but I will watch it when my sisters cheer for the peewee teams. I’m more of the kind of person that likes to get in the dirt to play like baseball and football.

March Madness is really exciting. It looks like alot of action and fun. It would be cool to be able to go t a March Madness game of Basketball. It would be my dream to be in March Madness!

I myself happen to be a huge basketball fan. I like the thrill and the excitement in the games and I enjoy myself everytime I get the oppurtunity to attend one.

I am a basketball fan. My mom has coached since before I was born and my parents actually met at a basketball game, so it was my fate to be a fan of the sport. I was very pleased that ODU is doing very well. I hope they will continue and go as far as they possibly can! I’m not really pushing for any particular team, but I will enjoy watching the games with my mom on TV. We are fans of Texas A&M.

Basketball isnt my favorite sport but i like to play it. The lady Marnarh won the game yesterday and I hope they win more. The guys play today and I think that the guys will do jsut as good as the girls did. Go ODU!

I do not like basket ball that much. I do think the last second shots are pretty interesting. I especially like the half and full court shots.

I'm not a basketball fan. I'd rather play video games or listen to music. Basketball does not interest me at all.

Mary said...

No I am not a basketball fan. I would rather be doing something with my friends or family, than watching a game. I would also rather be doing something more productive.

I am not a basketball fan. I'm pulling for ODU because they are close and just beat Noter Dame. Though I'd rather be listening to music watching basketball could be fun around this time.

Unknown said...

I am not a basketball fan. I would much rather be shopping or getting my nails done. Its not that I have a problem with basketball, it just doesn't meet my expectations in a sport. I am a track person. :)

Liv said...

I am not a basket ball fan. I think that it is boring to watch on TV. I would rather be painting or drawing.

I do happen to be a basketball fan, my favorite college team is the Virginia Tech. I was apart of the Windsor Dukes basketball team for their 09-10 year season. ODU is doing extremely well this year. I still believe football is way better!!!! Go Packers!

Allen said...

I'm not that into watching basketball myself, I prefer to play it. If I had to pick one team though it would be ODU. I would much rather be outside playing it than watching it though because if you are watching it your being lazy, if your playing it its better. No offense to anyone who likes watching it.

cole said...

I like playing basketball, i also like watching it, like at school games or something. But i don't know much at all about the game or even March Madness. The only things i know about basketball are because i learned it in gym, or because in my third block, the guys talk about it.

alexis said...

I’m only a fan of basketball when I watch it in person; it’s kind of boring when it’s on TV. I would much rather watch something else like football or be chilling with my friends. Even though I don’t know much about it!:)

Unknown said...

Well I don't know much about the game but I know they play well. I don't look at basketball games. But what I do know is that they are in it to win it and this is big time for them.

Unknown said...

Well everbody says there not a basketball fan im just here to say i love basketball it is the greatest sport and buzzer beaters are a great part of the game beacuse those last couple of minutes of the game show the real heart of basketball players
