March Madness Basketball

Ranked #4,018 in Sports & Recreation, #114,312 overall

March Madness is a holiday in my house.

Each year, I sit in front of the television ON Selection Sunday with brackets ready to fill out as the teams are announced. I fill out brackets in pools on sites like CBSSports.com and ESPN.com for fun, and take the first Thursday and Friday off from work to stay home and watch basketball all day long.

Being such a big fan of college basketball and Squidoo, I've combined these two in creating a series of March Madness lenses, one for each year's tournament where I track the teams leading up to the Tournament, and each rounds' results through the Championship game. My first lens was for the 2008 tournament won by the Kansas Jayhawks, and it will now be a part of my annual enjoyment of the March Madness experience.

Experience one of the greatest moments in the tournament's history

The upset of all-white Kentucky's powerhouse team by the all African-American starting lineup of Texas Western is one of the most pivotable moments not only in the history of the NCAA tournament, but in race relations in this country and in college athletics.
