1. March is Women’s History
Month
Could it be possible that it is simply the right time of
year for women? In the midst of honoring women idols such as Harriet Tubman and
Eleanor Roosevelt, women can access an inner power unreachable by even the best
sports analysts. Ask yourself who Susan B Anthony would pick: Gonzaga or West
Virginia. Susan would say to pick the 10th seeded WVU over the 7th
seeded Zags, because WVU had a much greater strength of schedule in the Big
East Conference, making them a stronger more battle tested team. Yeah… that’s
what Susan would say.
2. Child Birth
The fact that every human on earth is (for the most part)
born from a woman, gives them an incredible advantage. Imagine how much sports
sense Dick Vitale’s mother acquired through osmosis while holding Vitale in her
uterus. When she looks at a possible 2nd round matchup between
Memphis and Michigan State, she feels a deep uneasiness in her soul for
Michigan State, and picks an unlikely Memphis team to win.
3. A Large Scale ESPN
Conspiracy
Between now and Thursday of this week, ESPN will be having a
field day filled with March Madness, who’s
hot- who’s not, Cinderella slipping, championship crowning talk. What does it
lead to? Why are ESPN basketball “analysts” continually wrong, year after year?
Did Hubert Davis pick Purdue to make the Final Four last year because he is
that stupid? Nope. Rather, ESPN has concocted a conspiracy to drag down men.
When most of us guys say that we are going to do bracket research that is code
for us going into the living room and watching Sportscenter. Imagine how much
joy ESPN gets from controlling picks and continually leading men to bracket
destruction. The fact that women have been able to escape the ESPN influence
makes them able to make better independent picks.
No
matter what explanation is true, I wish you all a happy March Madness, and a
warning to watch out for the girls in your bracket pool, because they're probably packing an undetectable team picking secret.
