March is about the Cinderella Story. It's where guy's dreams and girls' fairy tales come together because of a ball and a basket. March is about the American dream. March is about college spirit. And March is about the madness.
Ok, in girl terms, March is the perfect time of year to express your femininity and your sports knowledge. And if you're so not understanding what I'm talking about, it's a great time to fake being a sports fan, but faking it so no one will know any better. Here's how:
1. Go to http://espn.go.com/ and click on the bracket challenge. (You have to do this by noon tomorrow or else you've missed the deadline.)
2. Fill out your bracket. Invite that special man in your life to fill out his. Then print the brackets and hang them on the refrigerator.
3. Keep track of who you picked and start cheering for those teams when the games start on Thursday. Keep cheering until the end of the tournament.
4. Have a party or invite your man to watch the national championship basketball game with you.
Once you follow these steps, you'll discover that you can actually talk sports with your man. You'll have a vested interest in the teams you pick and can argue that they're going to win. The NCAA tournament is unpredictable and the "Cinderella Story" is what everybody talks about. Every guy wants a 12 seeded team to find it's fairy godmother during March. Every guy wants that team to magically win each round and make it to the Final Four.
So pick a lower seeded team to make it to the Final Four. Then pick some safe bets (1 seeds are always safe). And then just have fun. Even if you've never shown interest in college basketball before, your man will notice and appreciate your effort. And you can have fun being a college basketball fan. Even if you didn't go to college, pick a school and a mascot and enjoy the March Madness!
