Today Ted's March Madness Morning Brew captures the spirit of the tournament through the eyes of a fan who knows just enough to be dangerous—and isn’t afraid to admit it.
With Gonzaga and Idaho University carrying the hopes of North Idaho, Ted leans into the excitement, unpredictability, and shares the experience that makes March special, while steering clear of overanalyzing stats or pretending to have a perfect bracket.
Ted ponders the various mascots that dot the land - the good, and the bad, and the ugly!
Along the way, Ted tries to sprinkle in humor, a few gentle jabs (including at your own Kansas State Wildcats’ absence), and a light, thoughtful nod to faith—wondering, with a grin, which team mascots might catch heaven’s attention.
More than anything, this episode celebrates community: coworkers filling out brackets, friends gathering around TVs, and the simple joy of rooting for “our team.” Win or lose, busted bracket or not, it’s a reminder that sometimes the madness is the fun here in North Idaho.
