No joke. The ONLY thing about miss about living on the east coast was going down to the Garden for the Big East Tourney. For not a lot of money you got to sit around and watch games all day. GOOD games, mind you. The Big East is what basketball should be. Great coaching/game management and maximum effort in almost every game.
The Big East Tourney is better than the NCAA's IMO and have moved into the top tourney every year in sports. The Stanley Cup was the best, but moving games around for TV ruined the momentum of it. When they played 4 games in 5 nights, nothing touched the Cup.
