We interrupt this program . . .

Getting home is tough. There are all the chores one postponed during Session. (Can anyone say, “Laundry”?)

There are conference calls with candidates, both declared and undeclared. There are speeches that one promised to give. There are petitions to be signed and money to be raised and fundraisers to attend and doors to be knocked.

And, just as it all seems too overwhelming for words, here comes Tournament Week. Followed by Selection Sunday. Followed by the best four days in a basketball lover’s life–the Round of 64 and the Round of 32.
