March Madness? A Great Time For Sports Music

Thu Mar 20, 2008 at 09:00:08 AM

I'm a huge sucker for college basketball -- sports-wise this is my favorite time of year, with the first round of the NCAA tournament getting underway this afternoon.

And, music-wise, CBS doesn't do too poorly when it comes to the whole March Madness deal. You telling me the CBS college basketball theme doesn't get you pumped up? You're gonna be hearing it a lot over the next few weeks.

And this song, which you'll only hear once, after the winner's been crowned?


(Sorry -- as a Syracuse University alum who was a student there when Carmelo Anthony led the Orange to the championship, I couldn't resist choosing this video out of all the "One Shining Moment" clips on Youtube...)

C'mon, it's a total tear-jerker. Disagree? You clearly have no soul. -- Pete Freedman

That song beats me to high, holy hell. I'm glad we only have to hear it once.

Bring on the baseball season.

what sam said (with the exception of the baseball part, which made me slump over in my chair and vomit). i don't think i could stand that song if my alma mater had won the NC five minutes before.

the three biggest asswhips in college basketball:

1) all studio analysts

2) billy packer

3) one shining moment

Again, no souls.

Don't listen to them, Pete. Show me a baseball tournament that gets an entire restaurant going nuts like the Western Kentucky game did yesterday.
