It's the most wonderful time of the year (NCAA tourney, baby!)

Sweet 16 play has four games Thursday and four on Friday. Final Four determined with two games on Sat and two on Sun.

One thing that makes me sad about the growing popularity is the price of tickets. I looked into getting some tix to the games in Phoenix on Thursday and Sunday and they are running over 100 per ticket per game. 15 years ago or so I went to the first two rounds in Tuscon - a total of 6 games - and paid 35 total for the 6 games. In 1998 or 1999, when a regional final was hosted in Phoenix, I got all three games for 75 or so. Too expensive.
