Today's UPDATES

As promised, Max Sports' takes a closer look at the 2018 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament starting next week. There are thirty-two conference within Division I of the NCAA, which means before the big tournament, there must be a team of Champions for each one of those conferences. From the American East, Atlantic 10, ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, C-Sun and Horizon, all the way down to the Ivy League, MAC, Missouri Valley, Ohio Valley, Pac-12, SEC, WCC and WAC, the winners of these conferences will qualify for the 2018 NCAA field by virtue of winning their conference's automatic bid. This would mean that other thirty-four teams that make up the rest of the field will have to wait until Selection Sunday this weekend on CBS to await what lies ahead of them. Right now, the teams that have automatically qualified are Lipscomb, Radford, Michigan, College of Charleston, Wright State, Iowa, Loyola-Chicago, LIU Brooklyn, Murray State, UNC Greensboro, South Dakota State, and Gonzaga, some of these teams I known before, other are new to me. Could we see even more new teams in the tournament? Which former teams will make a return to the event? and more importantly, which teams are going to be left out and will have to wait until next college basketball season? As we are in for another amazing March Madness, we can expect this Sunday's WWE Fastlane pay-per-view to be full of madness, here's an update on the lineup of matches coming up, as well more results from the NBA and NHL.

There's so much Trends on Twitter to talk about today like, the Florida Senate passing a bill that would raise the gun buying age to 21 and proposes arming some school personnel, or Trump lamenting the Oscars' low ratings by joking that there are no stars anymore, except him. There's also the matter of another nor'easter winter storm expected to hit the East Coast today, potentially bringing a foot or more of snow that very well might cause school and flight cancellations. How about today being Shaquille O' Neal's birthday or that Christopher Robin teaser trailer just yesterday which will showcases Winnie the Pooh reuniting with an old friend in Disney's upcoming film, well we are going to talk about a new trailer, but it won't Winnie and Christopher. Our #TwitterTrend concrete Marvel's Luke Cage, whose second season will launch this summer on June 22nd. A special teaser trailer came out during the announcement and it goes to show that this new season will be on fire, both figuratively and literally. The Hero for Hire is back in business and no criminal in Harlem, New York is safe, when I saw the first season, I though it was absolutely amazing, I only wished they hadn't killed off Mahershala Ali's character so early, and this summer's premiere is going to be epic. Jessica Jones starts her second season tomorrow and she looks to be kicking some major butt by the looks of things. Moving back to Luke Cage, let's see what the tweeters of Twitter have been saying about one of the best Marvel Heroes on Netflix returning in a few month for more hard-hitting action.

Luke Cage @LukeCage

Step up. I am Harlem and Harlem is me.
bex @finnsreyy
JJ drops this Friday and Luke Cage is back in only three months.

Jessica Jones @JessicaJones
Yeah yeah, less talking and more beating up morons.

Iron Fist @MarvelIronFist
Damn, bro. Remember, warriors cannot always stand alone.

Beezy430 @beezy430
New Luke Cage June 22nd? I can dig it!

Brett Molina @brettmolina23
GASP!! ERIC B AND RAKIM! NEW LUKE CAGE! DEAD

Countryboi567 @Countryboi567
I hope season 2 of Luke Cage builds on the first half of season 1

SLD @SLDTheWriter
Luke Cage season 1 wasnt great at all. It was ok.  Killing off mahershala ali was dumb but Cottonmouth kinda saved the show and the writing was pretty good towards the end. Here for season 2

Geek Media Corps @GMCpodcast
Okay. Jessica Jones. Luke Cage. Yay.

HOW ABOUT DAREDEVIL SEASON 3 NETFLIX?!

Other than Jessica Jones premiering this month on Netflix, we can also look forward to season 2 of A Series of Unfortunate Events. Based on the Lemony Snicket novel series, this new run of episodes will document the ongoing trails and tragedies that go on in the lives of  the Baudelaire Children (or Orphans) , we last left them in boarding school and it won't be long until the villainous untalented Count Olaf played by Neil Patrick Harris comes along to wreak havoc on the children's live again. His goal is to steal the enormous fortune that was left behind for the children to inherit from their seemingly dead parents, it will take the children's incredible young gifts to outsmart Olaf once again, and no matter how unfortunate things might get, they always get back on their feet to take a stand. Last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Neil Patrick Harris discuss a little bit about the new season, but if you want a better take on what's in stored, then Web Choice is always there to led a hand in visual aid.
