It's March and for many college basketball fans that means it's Christmas. 68 team started on the road to the final four and just 16 remain. Oh, how sweet it is. Millions of brackets were filled out and just about all of them were busted (thank you Missouri and Duke). People have their hopes dashed as they watch their team bow out of the tourney while other fans celebrate joyously as their team moved on. As a Notre Dame fan, March feels like the Bubonic Plague. Having a dark cloud loom over the head of your beloved Irish isn't easy to deal with. For the first time in my life, I cried following their loss to Xavier on Friday night. This leads me to the point I want to make. While fans can live and die with their team (or teams), players face the reality that their dreams may come to an end. Case in point, Robbie Hummel.
