Its that first week of March, I thought I would take time and give a couple of reasons why I am excited about March:

1. The NCAA Basketball Tournaments start! These Gents play for the love of the game and I love this game! ( with that said I used to play sports as well as a cheerleader in HS and college. )

So I suggest everyone celebrate by ordering another pint and holding a toast to Mr. Gilmore!
