It's only right that Selection Sunday arrives a month after Valentine's Day. There's so much love in February. But that fateful evening in March will crush men and women who, along with their favorite teams, suffer in uncertain times.
The bubble touches all in 2015-16. It's vast. But those who have escaped its great reach do not rest peacefully on a hammock positioned between today and Selection Sunday. They worry and wonder because "safe" just isn't a word we've heard much this season. The bubble squad and the nation's best? Well, they're all close -- like first cousins.
