March Madness Is Truly Mad

This time of March Madness seems truly mad to me. I cannot wrap my mind around why so many guys and girls get so into teams that they aren't really associated with any other time of the year. The idea of brackets are fine and dandy, but I cannot understand why so many people hold them in such high regard and importance. Imagine what the world could be if as many people channeled the March Madness energy into making the world a better place. Messed up priorities, anyone?
