With the country coming to a virtual standstill due to the men's NCAA College basketball tournament, the Madness of March, there's another tournament that draws far less television viewers, yet uses the same format.
A Fox News anchor named Heather Childers was talking about the NCAA championship yesterday morning.

West Virginia closed the season on a three-game winning streak to win the Big East championship. While this may or may not be the Mountaineers’ final year in the Big East (depending on the outcome of two pending lawsuits), West Virginia is more than happy to represent the conference one last time in t
