POLSON — “March madness” is a phrase coined from sports telecasters to describe the time of year when the only thing on TV is basketball. I linked the phrase to English folklore … “as mad as a March hare.” I do not understand why the March hare was so angry. It’s Spring. Those rabbits should be happy. They were jumping around the fields in a random and hap-hazard manner, hopping around like they were crazy, not mad. They were just hot-dogging around, showing off their skills trying to impress someone. Like basketball, sort of. Welcome to spring.
