March means three things. College basketball, baseball and warm weather. Thank goodness for all of them. After a grueling basketball season, teams battle for conference championships and top seeds in the NCAA bracket. Spring training leads to games and warm weather means I can get rid of my cabin fever.
March madness is always so exciting. The matchups of teams, the upsets and the do-or-die attitude makes the rest of the season seem too long. Don't get me wrong, conference play is rich with rivalry, and there is always a chance for an upset. However, we don't make brackets and spend three hours a day checking them when we're supposed to be working. Besides, we want to see who the next NCAA basketball championship will belong to. I've already been invited to join a few pools, but need to raise a little more dough before I commit.
Baseball at WSU is perhaps one of the most awesome things at this school. We are blessed enough to have talented teams year after year. We seem to be in the national spotlight througout the season, but this year it's different. This year we make the TOURNAMENT! That's how I know WSU has a winning baseball tradition, because year after year we can say that. Eck Stadium, Tyler Field, The Hill, WSU baseball, I can't wait.
Which leads me to the weather. Please no rain-outs, or snow-outs for that matter. The weather in Wichita, as we all know, can suck. I want to set up my chair and kick back. Beer in one hand and hot dog in the other with the sunshine beaming on my face. I want to watch WSU win and in my excitement give a buddy a hot dog high-five to the face. Is 60 degrees too much to ask for?
