A very good and different acrostic posting. You described "March Madness" perfectly in your selection of words and maintained the proper usage of each first letter.

I remember being into March Madness every year watching on television the college sports games when the coaches hastily choose recruits that don't always pan out in the end.
The coaches have their careers on the line so they take it too seriously or maybe they don't take it seriously enough.

    Jesse, thanks for weighing in on this one...I actually think this is one
    of those hyped sports events that lives up to its reputation...Already,
    the top two teams did not make it to the Elite-Eight! teafor2

    I don't own a television set so I don't watch sports or any other shows anymore. I listen to audiobooks or music on my CD player.

    Jesse, I want to be just like you when I grow up! I only watch Judge Judy and
    sports: tennis, football, basketball. I am slowly getting there...Just recently I donated my record albums, and complete music system to the VA. teafor2

This is fun! You present your acrostic in eye-catching visual with clear and well chosen words which are arranged in excellent syntax. Well done! These are never easy and often illegible. Take care Debbie

This is a clever acrostic and perhaps you should have entered it into the contest, I enjoyed your well chosen words here, it sounds like this game is erratic and full of fun and the Coach could be making some bad decisions here, love Dolly x x x

-Nice artwork and presentation, teafor2.
-You wrote a good acrostic with a good topic.
-Nice font choices, as well.
-You make a good point about
coaching in the first verse.
-The second verse offers some
suggestions about March Madness
like working together and not
trying to solve every situation that arises.
-I know there are always comments about
how the schools are chosen or ranked.
-Thanks for sharing about it.

This is something which I feel might be lost in translation. I do not think I am your target audience, I have no idea what NCAA is, although I like the term March Madness, brings to mind fighting Hares to me. I get the first three lines but coaches hastily confuses me. Make aggregate decisions again I get and it works. But the final work is where you lose me Soluble to the English means able to dissolve. I understand that it might mean able to solve in us English. However Solvable means the same in both languages. I am not saying you are wrong, I think I am the wrong audience. As such I think this is good But not great.

Interesting! I'm not really into basketball, so l'm not sure what it all means, but you did a great job with this acrostic. It's not the easiest form of poetry to do, l wish you the best in the contest.

I miss out on all that "madness." Do you watch American College basketball? I may watch the pro finals in June. I didn't know what "Hastically" means. Did you make up a word mixing hastily + drastically?

The finals of March madness are going to be held not very far from my home, which is about 20 miles at State Farm in Glendale Arizona. Happy Easter, and God bless.
