Yes, it’s that time of year again. The trees are flowering, the midterms are coming fast and nasty and the fans are preparing themselves to blow another $50 on the NCAA tournament. Here at the Voice we’re offering you an alternative. Instead of losing that money to Ted down the hall with the weird lisp, why don’t you just fill out our annual Global Hegemony bracket and send it to us with that $50 included? Our lisp isn’t weird; it’s just sort of adorable and harmless. The winning submission gets a special reward. What’s the point? Establishing which individual, event or concept was truly supreme in the 2004-05 season. And, of course, which had the best jumpshot. Enjoy
