March Madness is officially official. Conference tournament season starts tonight with the Patriot League kicking off their (duh) Patriot League Tournament. So yeah, this is pretty awesome if you are a fan of one-bid leagues or college basketball in general.
This also starts teams’ quests to earn a shot at winning a pair of Cinderella dancing slippers. Not the slippers themselves, mind you. They not only have to qualify for the Big Dance, but make a little run it in at as well to earn those. But the potential for these teams to get those shiny shoes is there.
With all of that being said, you would probably like to know how to watch this event. Luckily for you, I have just the thing for you.
