Today is the first full day of March madness games and I couldn’t be more excited. It’s the two days out of the year that I walk into work and act like I’m getting something accomplished — when in reality, I have the live stream of every game minimized on my computer.
I wish every day was like March.
The unanimous Cinderella story in the 2018 tournament comes straight out of the city of Chicago. The eleventh-seeded Loyola Ramblers are playing in the tournament for the first time since 1985 and have a tough first round draw when they face the sixth-seeded Miami Hurricanes today at 2:10 PM.
The Ramblers have everyone in Chicago pulling for them today, including Cubs superstar Anthony Rizzo.

Since I’m not off until 4:00 today, there may or may not be a good chance that I’ll be catching the Ramblers and Hurricanes later on today — and possibly doing some actual work as well.
