The wealth imbalance in this country is insane, it is an exponential curve, and a decent fraction of the very wealthy support their schools athletic departments. We can argue the wisdom of a society that pays millions to college basketball players. But even the most expensive college basketball...

Thank you Kylan for taking a role player roll in this year’s tournament run, not forcing things, so Keaton and Andrej can cook.
