We covered lots of March Madness this morning and there's more to get to now. I need at least a day and a half to digest the numbers and a couple hours to convince my wife that it's perfectly normal to carry a tabbed binder with the dozen-or-so brackets I'll be submitting.
Round-up: Before you submit your perfect entry, let J.J. Redick offer some crucial bracket-winning advice ... Check out the NCAA tournament "All-Name Team" featuring BeeJay Anya and Dallas Ennema ... SiriusXM's Evan Wilner scripted 68 Jim Nantz final calls for every team in the field -- and it's glorious ... Check out BYU's "WE MADE IT" reaction video ... Pharrell's Happy inspired Wisconsin-Milwaukee to make a fun video with some truly horrific dancing (particularly at the 1:00 mark) ... Baylor's hype video begins with a not-so-potent Tobey Maguire monologue from TheGreat Gatsby but it got me by the end ... Great scene at Michigan State where a young girl battling cancer got to help Sparty cut down nets ... And lastly, here's "snubbed" SMU sitting with Sad Keanu.
