We need January madness. All the teams meet in places like New Orleans, Memphis, and Syracuse to play three games of football a week. Top 64 teams, just so we can be sure there's not a sleeper out there.
Think what a boon it will be for the healthcare system! I hope the football players aren't capitated.
