It’s Christmas Day! For basketball junkies like me the next four days are the best days of the year: 48 games in 4 days. Hopefully we have Purdue playing in and winning two of those 48 games.
It all gets started a little after noon today. As a reminder, here is the beloved March Madness On Demand link. The person who came up with this idea deserves, at minimum, the Nobel.
Here is today’s full broadcast schedule:
