Seriously

Has Wilbon lost his mind on this whole mid-major thing? He's coming unhinged.

Fill me in a little.

Well, I haven't watched PTI every day, but when the selections were announced Wilbon was ridiculously upset. He was accusing the selection committee of colluding with the major conferences and keeping the mid-majors out. He said teams like Arizona, Michigan, etc. shouldn't be there. He called for a Congressional investigation.

Yesterday when Kornheiser was asking him if he felt better given how the first two rounds played out he went off on another frothing denunciation of the teams saying that of course they won since they didn't give the little guy a chance. He also reiterated his call for Congress to get involved.

It's not even like he's being theatrical for television, it really looks like he's on the edge of losing it. I've seldom seen someone who's opinion I respect go so completely off the deep end.

No kidding. It's not like they left out Northwestern...or would he consider them a "little guy."
