This year the NCAA tournament, better known as March Madness, has been cancelled. While I do not consider myself to be an avid sports fan, this is one yearly event I definitely enjoy and like to follow. It seems to have less of the commercialization and self-importance of professional sports and the athletes seem to embrace the code and meaning of sports much better than the pros.
With that said, I understand the need to cancel, given the state of the pandemic we are facing worldwide. It is the right decision to put safety first. I just wanted to reach out to all sports lovers and all the athletes and let them know we are all behind them.
The world is pulling together to defeat this virus and I am very proud of that. Most of the time world politics seems quite dysfunctional to me. Maybe the threat to our common survival is reminding us how connected we all really are.
