March Madness.

A repeat of yesterday as far as the weather goes but without the wind.

March Madness has begun in the U.S., the games of college basketball leading to the championship. Last year we had the luxuary of watching the complete games of our favorite team at our convienience as it went on to win the championship but they have changed the system and now all we can see are the highlights after the game is over.  We could still watch the game as it is being played but with the time difference it means we would have to get up at 2-3AM to see it.  We love college basketball but not enough to do that.  It's a pity they changed their format.

Basketball is becoming more popular in Poland and every major city has it's own team but there is not the array of talented players like in the NBA.  Even so, it's nice to be able to them play on TV and the Arena in Pozna艅 is not far from our house although we have not been to see a live game yet.

Powt贸rzy膰 wczoraj o ile pogoda idzie, ale bez wiatru.

March Madness zacz臋艂a si臋 w Stanach Zjednoczonych, gry w koszyk贸wk臋 uczelni prowadz膮cej do mistrzostwa. W ubieg艂ym roku mieli艣my luxuary ogl膮dania pe艂ne gry z naszego ulubionego zespo艂u w naszym convienience jak zdoby艂 mistrzostwo, ale uleg艂y one zmianie systemu i teraz wszystko, co mo偶emy zobaczy膰 to podkre艣la po gry. Mo偶emy nadal obserwowa膰 gr臋, poniewa偶 jest odtwarzana ale z r贸偶nic膮 czasu, oznacza to b臋dziemy musieli wsta膰 o 2-3AM go zobaczy膰. Kochamy koszyk贸wki uczelni, ale nie na tyle aby to zrobi膰. Szkoda, 偶e zmienili format.

Koszyk贸wka jest coraz bardziej popularne w Polska i ka偶de wi臋ksze miasto ma sw贸j w艂asny zesp贸艂, ale nie ma tablicy utalentowanych graczy, jak w NBA. Mimo to, mi艂o by m贸c je odtworzy膰 w telewizji i Arena w Poznaniu nie jest daleko od naszego domu, cho膰 nie byli艣my, aby zobaczy膰 na 偶ywo gr臋 jeszcze.
