Yup, it's a video mail-in post. Hey, the first day of March Madness brings offices across the world to a screeching halt and kills almost all production for that day, so why should my blog be any different? Plus, I figured this video is at least timely, though not overly funny. But what really makes it noteworthy is that it has all the earmarks of an ESPN short: pretty cute idea that never seemed to have been fully developed, lots of people you recognize but who are not so famous they wouldn't be available, one main joke which is driven into the ground and it ends rather unsatisfactorily. This all adds up to another piece of evidence for my theory that the people who write for "SportsCenter" are really failed comedy writers who never were good enough to get an audition to write for "Saturday Night Live".
