Is March Madness Overrated?

     I hate to come off as a contrarian hipster douche, but the more I think about it the more I realize March Madness is totally overrated.  Sure, there is an abundance of games in a short amount of time, that's cool I guess.  And who doesn't love giving $50 dollars to their stupid twat friend who filled out his bracket by flipping a coin?  My favorite part of this whole charade has to be when they trot president out on national TV to "reveal" his picks.  If the president of the United States has anything other than four one seeds (excluding any alma maters) in his final four he should immediately be impeached. The two minutes he takes to talk about his picks on TV is already borderline wasting too much of his time.  There's literally thousands of bigger issues he should be dealing with than this stupid tournament.  If you really care who anyone, regardless of their social standing, has as their 12-5 upset this year you need to take a hot bath with a toaster (make sure it's plugged in too).  
     I don't understand why there are so many teams in the tournament.  Actually that's a lie. It's big so it can make more money, but from a logical standpoint it makes no sense to me.  What is the deal with the outrage over the at-large teams that did/didn't make it? The amount of time spent bitching and moaning about one team deserving to be the sixty-eighth team over another is mind blowing to me.  News flash: they're the sixty-fucking-eighth team.  Does the sixty-eighth best team in the country really have/deserve a shot to be the champion? Say what you want about the BCS but isn't arguing who are the top two teams in the country a more captivating argument than who is the sixty-eighth? 
     The whole thing is just sickening to me.  The NCAA does everything they can to suck every last penny out of this tournament. Meanwhile they're banning players that take money for groceries.  I would love nothing more than to see the big five or six conferences come together to castrate the NCAA.  Simply ban together and decide they're going to do their own thing for basketball and football.  They could totally revamp the playoff systems in both sports to fall in line with the normal  playoff system like every other major sport in the world.  On top of that they can throw out the rule book and do whatever they want.  The cherry on top would have to be that the schools in this super conference would only have to split the money with other super conference schools.  There are way more reasons to do this than to not.  If we're lucky this will all fall into place by 2020.
