Dating: Dating is the real March madness!

I was watching CNN trying to feed my brain (I turned to the wrong channel to be honest with you) when I noticed a feature on Barack Obama. The point of the 4-minute segment was to show how hard he was working and traveling the country as he campaigned for the Democratic nomination.

The opening was a shot of the inside of his plane. His staff members were trying to enjoy a free moment before they landed and were whisked away in the presidential whirlwind. The cameras snuck up on Barack thinking they were going to find him working on a speech or exit plan (we can only hope and pray) when they noticed that he was filling out his NCAA bracket. This led me to think that just about every male in the country is going to be filling out a NCAA bracket by noon today (I actually have two; wish me luck).

Thus I decided to help us all out as we begin the real march madness. Real as in the dating madness.

Follow me: The college regular season is like the winter. All the teams (male species) play games and acquire win and loss records. Come March, all of the teams are vying for a place in the tournament (dating pool). All of the players (men) on the teams try their best to play well so that they can be seen by scouts (women) as well as win the tournament (fall in love). They do everything that the scouts say they can’t do. They try their best to show that they have what it takes to make it in the pro’s (relationship). The players pass the ball (turn down random hook ups), eat right, do extra conditioning (go to the gym), and become better teammates (willing to spend quality time and share their feelings).

Some of the teams are loaded with more talent and should win it all (the Mr. Right now type), some are under dogs (sweet but not your ideal guy) while some of the teams had an up and down year because of injuries (a string of bad luck, i.e. death of a loved one or work issues) or controversy surrounding the team (past relationships)

Who will win it all? Who knows? I guess will just have to enjoy the madness...and check out this one shining moment.




Also, any man that can play hoops like this can be my President any day. Yup, Lebron has nothing on B.O!!
