15 Years of Madness?

In honor of the first blog entry of the 15th year of my version of March Madness, I thought I would take a look at this time of year through one of the most quotable movies of our time, Caddyshack.  How does a golf movie relate to the craziest time of the year?  Oh, you have no idea...

"What's that sign say?"
"No bare feet"
"What's THAT sign say?"
"No fighting."
"What's it mean?"
"No fighting."

The quote appears simplistic.  By itself, without an actor's inflection (played brilliantly by Brian Doyle-Murray, Bill's older brother), it doesn't make much sense.  Seen in the movie in relation to D'Annunzio's younger brother, it makes perfect sense.  Even if he was being a smart ass with his response about what he originally thought the sign said, he is making a point.
