Social Media Sites Are Ruining My Tournament Experience

I don’t normally bash on social media sites like Facebook or Twitter, but c’mon people! I sat and watched every game on Thursday and Friday with my brackets next to me crossing out every wrong pick.

My phone kept buzzing and because I just can’t ignore it, I pick it up only to see another moron posted on Facebook that they picked every upset.

I  DON’T CARE that you picked Murray State, or Ohio University in the first round! These people are killing me. Especially during the NCAA Tournament, I can’t even log on to Facebook because of this s**t.

It’s bad enough that people post or tweet that they had a bagel for breakfast and then are going to go for their 10 mile run at 6am. Now I have to read that the secretary that would rather play “Farmville” than interact with people in person picked Murray State to beat Vandy. WHY?!

Almost every game in this tournament has gone down to the wire and there have been more overtime games and buzzer beaters than I can remember in the recent past.

You would think that I would be excited about this as a sports fan, but I can’t because my phone will buzz once again in about ten minutes with some other moron posting or tweeting that they called even more upsets that happen through the rest of the tournament.

I hope that every favorite wins out so these people can go back to eating their bagels, running their 10 miles, and stop ruining my day.

I hope all of your Farmville animals get the plague, your mafia gets ambushed and your aquarium leaks.
