BREAKING NEWS....B-Ball Tourney to Expand (but not to 96 thank God)

According to the Washington Post (I guess my new Hometown Paper) the NCAA has decided to expand the number of teams in the Men's Tournament from 65 to 68. I assume this means 3 additional play in games which is exactly what I wanted. I am super pumped they didn't go to 96 teams as it would have killed the regular season, especially for any decent team in a BCS conference league.

Also of note in this article is the fact that CBS won't be the only network televising Tourney games. TNT, TBS and truTV (Huh?) will also get in on the action. Ummm ok.
