3:41

yours today is Wednesday March 19th and

3:43

boys we've got it the tournament has

3:45

arrived we're gonna do a little choose your

3:47

own adventure we are taping this in the

3:50

afternoon I bet San Diego State so I'll be

3:52

a very sad boy if they lost by more than

3:54

four and a half. But it does feel like UNC

3:56

is the team now. Yeah. We've had four days of

3:58

just hearing that they don't belong. don't belong

4:00

you don't belong they probably don't

4:03

belong yeah the west Virginia governor

4:05

even did a press conference

4:07

the national corrupt association of

4:09

athletics yeah sign it was a big

4:12

story for what we said 24 hours you

4:14

get 24 hours to basically bitch about it

4:16

and then every as soon as the ball

4:18

is tipped everyone's like okay we want to

4:20

watch the game now the ball is on

4:22

the yack he did he say on the

4:25

act not a whole lot he basically was

4:27

like yeah I know this isn't gonna do

4:29

anything But we have to fight for

4:31

ourselves. He came on because Nick, our

4:33

good friends Nick and KB are both

4:35

West Virginia Natives. Nick is a West

4:38

Virginia fan. And he gave the right answer

4:40

in the fact that he said, we're

4:42

like, dude, you're not actually going to

4:44

get into the tournament by suing. He's

4:47

like, yeah, of course not. But you got

4:49

to. It's good for the constituents. He's also

4:51

working around. It's constituents. Next year if they're

4:53

on the bubble, that's the right. They might

4:55

give him a little friendly bump. This is

4:57

the best thing that can ever happen to

4:59

a politician because it gives you something where

5:01

you can. take everybody under your wing and

5:03

be like I got your back as your

5:06

leader meatball Ron did this with Florida State

5:08

yep and then got awful quiet about it

5:10

when Florida State got their ass kicked in

5:12

that bowl game that's true but it's a

5:14

good opportunity like if you're a politician you

5:16

know every crisis needs a leader it's a

5:18

great opportunity for leaders step up and to

5:20

have everybody support them so I guess congratulations

5:22

the governor yeah public can is also like

5:25

maybe the most corrupt person's name so my

5:27

idea is that we need to change he

5:29

doesn't deserve to be Bubbe A Bubba is

5:31

a guy you want to be

5:33

friends. Yeah, but also someone that's

5:35

corrupt. A Bubba. A Bubba is

5:37

someone you hit up to get

5:39

out of a tough situation. Bubba's

5:41

walked into a lot of meetings

5:43

where the other guy brings a

5:45

briefcase. Of course. And it doesn't

5:47

take that briefcase with him on

5:49

the way out. I think though we should

5:52

call, his real name is Lawrence,

5:54

I think we should call him

5:56

Larry, Larry Cunningham, strip him of

5:58

the Bubba. That's kind

6:00

of a point of pride, you know? When you're a bubble,

6:02

that's cool. to be like, hey, I'm Bubba, so we should

6:04

take that away from him and be like, no, dude, you're

6:07

Lawrence. Yeah, I don't know. Lawrence Cunningham, you're a complete no

6:09

name, Lawrence, you remember your Bubba's. I feel like this is,

6:11

this is on the, whoever the committee is, the NCAA for

6:13

putting Bubba in charge of everything. You don't put a Bubba

6:15

in the position of leadership. Bubba brings the beers. Well, it's

6:17

also caught by the like where you and they're UNC, we'll

6:19

never, we'll never, we'll never, we'll never, we'll never be, we'll

6:22

never be on, we'll never be on, we'll never be on,

6:24

we'll never be on, we'll never, we'll never, we'll never, we'll

6:26

never, we'll never, we'll never, we'll never, we'll never be on,

6:28

we'll never, we'll never, we'll never, we'll never, we'll never,

6:30

we'll never, we'll That's not a conflict of

6:32

interest or anything. It's bullshit. I think it's

6:34

like anywhere between 40 and 60 grand and

6:37

the reason why they do it they say

6:39

is because if you make the tournament Then

6:41

the 80 has to work overtime. Yeah, so

6:43

we deserve to be compensated for that. Yeah,

6:45

so UNC probably will win and will they'll

6:47

probably go to the sweet 16 and everyone

6:49

and everyone be like yeah, you didn't think

6:51

they should be in the tournament and then

6:53

Alabama state won Yeah I'm just guessing. Yeah

6:55

Alabama State, St. Francis, I was looking,

6:58

I did research into these teams earlier.

7:00

So I've got fun facts about them.

7:02

As fun as they can get about

7:04

Alabama State and St. Francis, but yeah,

7:06

they're going to lose. Yeah. I don't

7:08

know who it was. I saw it

7:10

on X, the Everything app, so apologies

7:13

if this was you. But I like to take

7:15

that. the playing game should be bubble teams and

7:17

not agree like it shouldn't be 16 seeds yeah

7:19

we've been we've been saying that on on this

7:21

here program yeah that was with John Rossite on

7:24

Sunday night thanks for subscribing please unsubscribe and resubscribe

7:26

it would be better if it was just the

7:28

bubble teams that had to play for the right

7:30

to get in and then give the give the

7:33

16 teams their opportunity to get their ask kicked

7:35

by the one season now the only counterpoint to

7:37

that our good friend Tom Franelli did text me

7:39

after listening to part my take on Sunday on

7:42

Sunday something Hank I guess doesn't do But he

7:44

pointed out that they do get

7:46

a bonus for winning a tournament

7:48

game. If they win the plan. Yeah, so

7:51

if you ask the 16C, do you want

7:53

a 50-50 chance at a bonus or a

7:55

one in a billion chance, I

7:57

think they'd probably take the 50,

7:59

50. And for, you know, the kids and

8:01

the coach to get a NCAA tournament win

8:03

on your resume is a pretty big deal.

8:05

So they might be fine with it. Do

8:08

they not get a bonus if they just

8:10

play in the tournament? No, I don't think

8:12

so. They might, but they get an additional

8:15

bonus for every win. Also, I appreciate the

8:17

page and tree and the tradition that is

8:19

date in Ohio. Yeah, it's fun. It's where

8:21

we started off. Listen, I want another

8:23

playing game on Monday night because last

8:25

night, I don't know about you guys,

8:28

but I was lost. I do think

8:30

it's interesting, and John brought this up

8:32

Hank, so if you see it online,

8:34

it's probably from him, that San Diego

8:36

State North Carolina, both teams that have

8:38

played in the NCAA championship game in

8:40

the last five years. Interesting. Fun

8:42

fact. This is a fun fact. Really, very,

8:44

very fun fact. Should should we get to

8:46

our fun facts? Yeah. Let's fucking do it.

8:48

So we split up the regions. We all took

8:51

a region. PFT I think you're up

8:53

first because you have Auburn's region,

8:55

right? I do. All right, so Auburn and

8:57

PFT, the South? One seed, yeah, the South.

8:59

So Auburn is the one seed out of

9:01

that, out of that division. They are the

9:04

Tigers, we know them as the Auburn

9:06

Tigers, but they also chant war eagle.

9:08

Do you know why they chant war

9:10

eagle? No. So the tradition goes back

9:12

to 1892. There was a football game

9:14

going on. It was... Auburn against Georgia and

9:17

there was a civil war veteran in the

9:19

stands who had a pet eagle that he

9:21

found during a battle in the civil war.

9:23

Don't ask what side he was on. Okay.

9:26

But he had his pet eagle in the

9:28

stands. Then the eagle took off, started a

9:30

circle in the sky as Auburn came back

9:33

and drove for the win. I love that.

9:35

Against Georgia and the crowd started chanting

9:37

war eagle, war eagle, plot twist. Then

9:39

the eagle just turned straight downwards from

9:41

the sky, flew into the field and

9:44

killed itself. Kamakazi War Eagle. That's an

9:46

awesome story. I didn't know that. The

9:48

Eagle might have been woke because he

9:50

was like, I'd rather die than go

9:52

back to my Confederate soldier boss. Yeah.

9:54

So we don't know what happened there.

9:56

But yeah, that's why they call it

9:59

War Eagle. Okay. I like the Auburn saw

10:01

one of the coolest college football traditions

10:03

that I've seen. Yeah, the war eagle

10:05

flying. Yeah. Yeah, very cool. That now if we

10:07

saw that today, we would say that's a bad omen

10:09

for Auburn if the eagle just decided

10:11

to unalive itself. Yeah, it's like that

10:14

central park pigeon or whatever. Oh, are

10:16

you talking about Lacko? Lacko, Lacko, the Al.

10:18

Yeah, but he was a slut, remember. He

10:20

was a slut. He had herpes, alherpies, alherpies.

10:23

He also might have been taken taken out.

10:25

He also might have been taken out. Yeah,

10:27

I didn't have eyeballs on Hillary at the time.

10:29

Okay, that's a that was a great start. I

10:31

had no idea about it. Well, I didn't know

10:33

what war I knew they said war ego, but

10:35

I never looked it up. Yeah, it's a fun

10:37

fact. Okay, and they're playing and they're

10:40

playing against either Alabama State or St.

10:42

Francis of Pennsylvania. So Alabama State Hornets,

10:44

notable alumni, two chains. Oh, also notable

10:47

alumni player. Oh, did he play? I

10:49

think I'm going to play college basketball

10:51

there. You might have played ball there.

10:53

And also Clarence Carter. He sang that

10:56

song, stroking. When I saw Make Love,

10:58

I don't just make love. Stroke, stroke. That

11:00

is a, that is a great, that's

11:02

a super fun fact. That's a great

11:04

song. It's a banger, is it? That

11:06

is a very fun song. Maybe the

11:08

best. like dynamic duo if you're putting

11:10

together an NBA jam team yeah two

11:12

musicians that went to any of these

11:14

schools two chains and clearance card are

11:16

pretty good like that clearance code they're

11:19

always in the first four and they've

11:21

never won a first four game okay

11:23

and then the red flash here's my

11:25

fun fact about the red flash st

11:27

Francis coach Rob criminal has a lifetime

11:29

record of 171 and 227 oh wow

11:31

he's been coaching there for a long

11:33

time they haven't won a lot of games good

11:35

11:38

trying is elite at keeping his job.

11:40

Two chains did play two seasons at

11:42

11:44

gonna be there? Gotta be he's got titty

11:46

boy. He's got titty boys got to be

11:48

11:51

he's list. Yeah, I want to say we

11:53

should have started the show with welcome back.

11:55

Thank you. Thank you. You were just a

11:57

vessel on Sunday night. Yeah, that was your

11:59

or any? Yeah, oh yeah. No, that

12:02

was his outy. It might have been

12:04

his outy. Well, his outy punishes any.

12:06

Yeah, yeah. I was reintegrating it. Yeah,

12:08

yeah. It was your nose bleeding in

12:10

being like, what the hell's going on?

12:13

But yeah, it's good, good to have

12:15

you back. Okay, next game. Louisville Creighton.

12:17

Louisville versus Creighton. We've got bird nugget

12:19

of the week because it's the Cardinals

12:21

against the Blue Jays. With the noise

12:23

Hank. That was good. That was good.

12:26

Blue Jay would kick a cardinal's ass

12:28

in a fight, even though the Louisville

12:30

Cardinal has teeth. Blue Jays are much

12:32

bigger. They're super, super aggressive. Also, per

12:34

stat hole sports, Rain Smith is the

12:37

best free throw shooter in the country

12:39

for Louisville. So keep your eye on

12:41

that. His name's Rain? R-E-Y-N-E. I believe

12:43

that's rain. But that's still making it

12:45

rain making it rain. Making it rain.

12:47

Yeah. Great and fun fact, the Toronto

12:50

Blue Jays sued Creighton in 2014 over

12:52

the redesign of the Blue Jay logo.

12:54

And after three years of litigation, it

12:56

got thrown out because Creighton's name predates

12:58

the Toronto Blue Jays name. And also

13:01

the judge ruled that the Toronto Blue

13:03

Jays logo was not famous enough to

13:05

be infringed upon. Oosh! Yeah, that's brutal.

13:07

I had to go wild. I went

13:09

balls deep in reading actual court documents

13:12

to figure that one out Also, oh,

13:14

I did so much more reading than

13:16

I've ever done today Yeah, creating blue

13:18

jays blue jays is one word. It's

13:20

not two So if you see somebody

13:22

put a space in between blue and

13:25

jays in March, they're casual. What about?

13:27

Bjays, you can see can you do

13:29

the shirt? I love Bj I heart

13:31

Bjays, yeah, it translates to edging Blue

13:35

Jays. Edging. Blue ball, no. PJ. Blue

13:37

ball. What is the J? Are you

13:39

saying B-L-E-W? Like B-J, but put you

13:42

blue balls. Okay. Okay. Yeah. Bad head.

13:44

And yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, got it.

13:46

Welcome back, hey. Yeah. Yeah. Welcome back,

13:49

hey. Yeah. Yeah. You see San Diego,

13:51

Michigan, Dusty May literally translates to pollen

13:53

season. Ten and O in games decide

13:56

by 10 points or less this year.

13:58

They've been very good in those tight

14:00

games. And 10 of their last 12

14:02

wins have been decided by four points

14:05

have been decided by four points or

14:07

fewer. So they play close games. You

14:09

see San Diego, they have the fewest

14:12

turnovers in the entire country. And they

14:14

live in heaven. They live in heaven.

14:16

They live in San Diego. They live

14:19

in San Diego. They live in San

14:21

Diego. So who cares if they lose

14:23

if they lose San Diego. You don't

14:26

deserve to. You see San Diego, you

14:28

just hang out all day. Also, you

14:30

see San Diego during every finals week.

14:32

They have a primal scream. at exactly

14:35

10 p.m. that goes 10 p.m. to

14:37

10.m. to 10.05 where all their students

14:39

can just scream as loud as they

14:42

want out their window in their dorm

14:44

wherever the campus just erupts with people

14:46

screaming because they're frustrated. Is it like

14:49

COVID? Yeah, I was gonna say it's

14:51

like to COVID. We're right in the

14:53

zone where everyone's doing the five year

14:55

anniversaries and I cringe in every single

14:58

thing I see. Where it's like, you

15:00

know, videos of people dancing in the

15:02

street, socially, socially distanced. I was walking

15:05

to the grocery store during that, it

15:07

was pretty cool. I feel like I

15:09

was in a parade. Yeah, in New

15:12

York, I can kind of see it,

15:14

because in New York, the hospitals were

15:16

bad. A lot of people died right

15:19

off the bat. But yeah, I don't

15:21

want to remember anything from that. No,

15:23

I don't either. It just, it bums

15:25

me out when I see it. It

15:28

was a bad year. Yeah. All right,

15:30

so that's that game. Next up, like

15:32

a month and a month and a

15:35

month and a half for us. is

15:37

the next one. Fun fact about this

15:39

one, you could make the case that

15:42

alumni from Yale have gotten more alumni

15:44

from their opponents killed than any other

15:46

matchup in the history of March madness.

15:48

Oh, CIA stuff? Well, all the war

15:51

criminals that went to Yale and then

15:53

Texas A&M has like the highest percentage

15:55

of military graduates. So when you look

15:58

at it. uh... famous alumni from yale

16:00

george will you say no i think

16:02

i think you're about to explain George

16:05

w bush jon ash Croft, Prescott Bush,

16:07

some Nazi ties there, Dick Cheney, Bill

16:09

and Hillary Clinton, all Yale graduates went

16:11

to Yale, and then A&M has the

16:14

highest amount of Medal of Honor winners

16:16

of any school in the entire. More

16:18

than army? Any non-military school. Yeah. Also,

16:21

Texas A&M, not occult. That's my fun

16:23

fact. They're not occult. They're very clear

16:25

about that. Revoli the dog. Their mascot

16:28

is considered a cadet general and the

16:30

highest ranking member in the core of

16:32

cadets at A&M. Freshmen are required to

16:35

address her as Miss Rev Ma'am. It's

16:37

a held tradition that if Revoli decides

16:39

to sleep on a cadet's bed, the

16:41

cadet has to sleep on the floor.

16:44

Revoli has her own cell phone who's

16:46

operated by the mascot corporal and she

16:48

has her own student identification card. Not

16:51

a cult. Not a cult. They wear

16:53

the rings too. Everywhere I got some

16:55

ring facts the aggy rings from A&M.

16:58

Yeah, just it's it's a lot also

17:00

fun fact about Yale Yale played in

17:02

the very first five on five collegiate

17:04

basketball game. Oh, wow Who played in

17:07

the first four and four? I don't

17:09

know. I don't know what happened before

17:11

that I have I have that same

17:14

stat for a different team. Oh You

17:16

can't spoil the fun facts. You're right.

17:18

You're right. You're right. I've said too

17:21

much about class rings. All right, next

17:23

up we have Olmas against UNC or

17:25

San Diego State. There was, I think

17:28

it was Doyle. Who was it on

17:30

CBS? One of them said that Olmas

17:32

gets a lot of love because they

17:34

played in a great conference. They had

17:37

a lot of opportunities. But. I don't

17:39

know, Chris Beard is their coach. Chris

17:41

Beard is their coach. He's a very

17:44

very good basketball coach. Yes, way better

17:46

basketball coach than person. I already built

17:48

up my UNC San Diego State fun

17:51

fact, which is what John Rothstein told

17:53

us that these two teams both played

17:55

in the. national championship game in the

17:57

last five years. I was state. Okay.

18:00

I was state. This is a fun

18:02

fact. I wish I could take credit

18:04

for it, but I can't. There is

18:07

a credit user who goes by the

18:09

name of Otselberger's polos. Who very tight

18:11

put together a spreadsheet of the winningest

18:14

and losing his polos that he wears.

18:16

Wow. Pretty good, right? Like. This is

18:18

why the stuff you need. This is

18:20

the stuff you need for your bracket.

18:23

This is why the internet was invented

18:25

for this guy to figure this out.

18:27

So the best polo shirts that he

18:30

wears are the dark red stripes, the

18:32

red polo shirt with the dark red

18:34

stripes on the dark red stripes on

18:37

the front and then the red polo

18:39

shirt with the single yellow stripe. The

18:41

worst that he has is the plain

18:44

gray. He's really bad in the plain

18:46

gray and he has never worn a

18:48

polo that's, you know, the extra medium

18:50

medium medium medium size. that has yellow

18:53

as the primary color, even though that

18:55

is their one of their primary colors

18:57

at Iowa State. Okay. So keep your

19:00

eye on what Otselberger wears for his

19:02

polo shirts. Very important. Lipscomb has five

19:04

guys who are shooting 33% or more

19:07

from three. Iowa State is 135th and

19:09

three point defense. Okay. Fun fact. Yes.

19:11

Lipscomb. What does Lipscomb mean, Hank? Teeth.

19:13

I was going to say mustache. Okay.

19:16

But you're thinking about teeth a lot.

19:18

Yeah. Something going on?

19:20

No, I'm just not. When you dream

19:22

about your teeth falling out, you're infertile?

19:25

It's that you didn't say something that

19:27

you should have said or you said

19:29

something that you shouldn't have. Got it.

19:32

Marquette? Marquette, New Mexico. Marquette, the term,

19:34

the big dance, was first coined by

19:36

Marquire. who said that he would wear

19:38

a blue blazer because he's going to

19:41

the big dance. It's the first time

19:43

anyone said it and they won the

19:45

title that year. Shock Smart, their coach

19:48

has a 26-page document about culture that

19:50

he sends to every single recruit. And

19:52

Manifesto? Manifesto? Well, it's a manifesto if

19:54

you killed somebody. Okay. But it's borderline

19:57

manifest. It's borderline that a handbook. A

19:59

handbook, but a culture document, that's a

20:01

manifesto. I think that's a coaching thing.

20:03

That might be a manifesto. I think

20:06

if you send it to somebody for

20:08

publicity, it's a manifesto. I'd like to

20:10

get my hands on that, we can

20:13

judge if that's a manifesto. Yeah, 26

20:15

pages. That's a lot. That's a lot

20:17

of pages. Yeah, but if you, they

20:19

send it, then it's like, if you

20:22

don't want to handle this, don't come.

20:24

If you have to like click and

20:26

download, that's a manifesto. I

20:29

like that move. I think manifestos,

20:31

they typically have to be uncovered

20:33

too. Like somebody finds a manifesto.

20:35

Why don't you do that as

20:37

a project? A culture manifest for

20:39

part of my take. Okay, that'd

20:42

be nice. Yeah, it'll be one

20:44

page. Great, good. Then it won't

20:46

be a manifesto. At that point,

20:48

it's an executive summer. Yeah, yeah,

20:50

it's table contents. That's what you're

20:52

doing. Marquette has lost to every

20:54

tournament team in conference twice, except

20:57

for Xavier. Mm-hmm. They beat twice.

20:59

Okay. New Mexico. Richard Patino is

21:01

their head coach. Yes. Fun fact.

21:03

And my other fun fact is

21:05

we should change the name to

21:07

New America. Oh, instead of New

21:09

Mexico. I like that. That's my

21:12

only fun fact there. Okay. Michigan

21:14

State, they have the longest streak

21:16

in the country in terms of

21:18

consecutive tournament appearances with 27. Next

21:20

year, they would tie the all-time

21:22

record. So 28 would be the

21:25

record that Kansas had. Kansas does

21:27

not, it's not an active streak

21:29

for Kansas. Got it. So yeah,

21:31

Tom is January, February, is so

21:33

April. Although he should want it

21:35

to be January, February, March, is

21:37

so would be better because that's

21:40

when they play the championship game.

21:42

And they play against Bryant. My

21:44

fun fact about Bryant is their

21:46

coaches Phil Martelli Jr. Son of

21:48

legendary St. Joe's Coach Phil Martelli

21:50

Senior. Phil Martelli Senior. Also, I

21:52

believe this is true. Richard Patino

21:55

back to New Mexico. I think

21:57

he's the only coach in this

21:59

tournament that at some point... has

22:01

lived in another coach's balls. Mm.

22:03

That's also in this tournament. That's

22:05

also in this tournament. Because Phil

22:08

Martelli Jr. lived in Phil Martelli

22:10

Senior's balls. That makes sense. Okay.

22:12

Who's up next? That was great

22:14

PFT. Thank you. Who do you

22:16

have coming out of this region?

22:18

If I'm... Who do you have

22:20

coming out this region? Oh, I've

22:23

got Michigan State coming out of

22:25

this region. I got Michigan State

22:27

against Auburn. Okay. Florida.

22:29

Oh, Matt, you're up at Jesus Christ.

22:32

We're going to Duke. Duke. We're going

22:34

to the east. We're going to cross.

22:36

Okay. Okay. I thought you were going

22:38

to go to hang too. Clockwise. Okay.

22:41

We can. We can. No, I'm good.

22:43

I'm ready to go. I'm ready to

22:45

go. I'm ready to go. I'm ready

22:48

to go. I'm ready to go. I'm

22:50

ready to go. I'm ready to once

22:52

more ready to go. Me. Me. And

22:55

my friend's sister is John Shire's assistant

22:57

at Duke. Yes, that's pretty cool. So

22:59

how close a friend? We played baseball

23:02

together in college. Do you keep up?

23:04

He was in Chicago last year, we

23:06

got dinner. Okay, so so fairly like,

23:09

yeah, you could get us John Shire

23:11

on the show. Yeah, okay, yes. Love

23:13

that. I could, I could, yes. I

23:15

will say yes. Okay, that is very

23:18

fun fact. Fun fact, fun fact. Oh,

23:20

I got one. What? No, I'm waiting

23:22

for Hank. Bilbo's son. I don't know

23:25

who Bilbo's. Bilbo Bagons? Shire? I don't

23:27

know. Okay. What do you got? PFT.

23:29

I was just going to say, serious

23:32

XM 2015 bathroom. Mmm. There we go.

23:34

bathroom because it can't ice you can't

23:36

got it what what wait what is

23:39

23:48

the Sirius XM studio and I went

23:50

24:02

24:06

24:11

Ed Sheer's like a fire hose it's

24:13

like a super soaker and is trying

24:16

to like a super-soak and it's like

24:18

24:20

24:29

like a super-soak and super-soak and like

24:32

a super-soak and like a super-soak and

24:34

like a super-soak and like a super-soak

24:36

Holy shit, how do you not tell

24:39

us that story? I don't know, that's

24:41

crazy. All right, Max, back to you.

24:43

So Duke plays the winner of American

24:46

or St. Mary's. I have some facts

24:48

about both of them. Okay, great. The

24:50

American Fun Fact is another personal fact.

24:53

In 2009, they were beating Villanova by

24:55

13 at halftime in the first round

24:57

as a 14 seat against a three.

24:59

And I vividly remember where I was

25:02

at that moment and thinking that I

25:04

wanted Jaywright fired in that moment and

25:06

then they ended up... How old are

25:09

you? I was 14. Okay, I love

25:11

that. I was 13. Yeah, so like

25:13

this is why we shouldn't listen to

25:16

you, you're going to want every coach

25:18

fired at some point. Yeah, no, I

25:20

wanted him fired, but then Villanova ended

25:23

up winning that game by 12. Okay,

25:25

nice. I also did something I started

25:27

to do something and I felt like

25:30

it was mean I started to do

25:32

a best player and a worst player

25:34

from each team Okay, I don't have

25:36

to continue. I don't have to know

25:39

give us one. Oh, okay American Matt

25:41

Rogers best player 17 points 55% shooting

25:43

40% from three pretty good numbers worst

25:46

player No disrespect to Jeff Sprouse. Jeff

25:48

Sprouse is definitely an AWO. He's definitely

25:50

listening to us right now, trying to

25:53

take his mind off the hall to

25:55

play in that show. The guard, Jeff

25:57

Sprouse, from American, plays 23 minutes a

26:00

game. I didn't want to pick the

26:02

walk-ons who like never play. He has...

26:04

Six points a game, but he's the

26:07

guard who shoots 33% from the field

26:09

and 50% from the line Oh Just

26:11

knock Jeff's brows skip those numbers. What

26:13

are the assist numbers like there Max?

26:16

What's this game like? Yeah, he might

26:18

be like a John Stockton This is

26:20

the this is the notes that I

26:23

have okay. I don't have the assist

26:25

numbers on here. Okay, St. Mary's Okay,

26:27

D2, D2 wagon, 1962 national champions in

26:30

the D2, five time final, five final

26:32

fours in the D2. Okay. And then

26:34

I started thinking about St. Mary's, I'm

26:37

like, I'm pretty sure they have a

26:39

really small court. And then I looked

26:41

it up, I'm like, oh yeah, they

26:44

have a small court. But then it

26:46

made me think like, is that the

26:48

smallest court? The court's not regulation size?

26:50

No, like, like, small stadium, like high

26:53

school looking stadium. Small Barn. Yeah. So

26:55

they have. And I was like, that's

26:57

pretty small. I wonder what the smallest

27:00

is. South Carolina upstate, their stadium seats

27:02

800 people in it. Whoa. Like, I

27:04

think, I look, I'm gonna show you

27:07

a picture of it right now. Oh,

27:09

I want to see this. I think

27:11

if, if, like, we could get more

27:14

people in our office basketball gym than

27:16

this, than this team got. I love

27:18

these small gyms. Yeah, so. It kind

27:21

of got away from me and I

27:23

started to look at it. This is

27:25

why this is being a South Carolina

27:27

upstate fact. Look what small this gym

27:30

is. That's like a high school gym.

27:32

This is why this tournament is so

27:34

great though. Because it's it's these type

27:37

of teams. I know South Carolina upstate's

27:39

not in it, but they could be.

27:41

It's why I love this tournament. It's

27:44

why it's it's analogous to the what

27:46

are they call? you know, a YMCA

27:48

is playing against Man You. That gym,

27:51

I can guarantee you as hot as

27:53

fuck during a game. Yeah. That's a

27:55

cool gym. That's a cool gym. And

27:58

one more thing about St. Mary's. This

28:00

is a bad fun fact that I found.

28:02

Oh. Just like, it's just a stupid

28:04

fact. Okay. They have a player on

28:07

their team that his name is two

28:09

other teams in the tournament. Oh. Go

28:11

on? His name is Xavier Lipscomb. Wow.

28:13

Whoa. That is a very fun fact.

28:16

Xavier Lipscomb plays for St.

28:18

Mary's. You killed that. What happens

28:20

when he plays against Lipscomb? Because

28:22

he played for the name on

28:24

the front or the name on

28:26

the back. Wow. Wow. That's big

28:28

time. Okay, I think food's

28:31

gonna win that win that game.

28:33

We're on the Mississippi State Baylor

28:35

Mississippi State Big Dairy School. Yeah,

28:38

didn't know this Brandon looks

28:40

like a bag of milk.

28:42

They annually produced three hundred

28:44

and sixty nine thousand gallons

28:46

of milk Nine thousand gallons

28:48

of ice cream and three

28:50

hundred thousand pounds of cheese

28:52

all sold exclusively on campus.

28:54

Love that big dairy school didn't

28:57

know it Josh Hubbard good player

28:59

good player Baylor! So I have a

29:01

fun fact about the people

29:03

in this room with Baylor and

29:06

then I have a morbid fact

29:08

that I did not know about

29:10

Baylor. Oh, you did not know

29:13

about that. Did you know? Did

29:15

you know about this? What

29:17

about this? Baylor? He's pointing

29:19

at you. Are you talking

29:21

about the murders? Are you

29:23

talking about the murders? I

29:25

didn't know the murders? No. Okay.

29:28

No, you don't know what that

29:30

is either. I don't know what

29:33

that is either The fun fact

29:35

is that Baylor is the team

29:37

of the bracket busters of the

29:40

people of the three of the

29:42

four people in this room.

29:44

Yeah Whatever room whatever so

29:46

let's go bailers. We're rooting

29:48

for Baylor in here. Yeah,

29:51

which you do every year

29:53

parcel. It's very fun. I

29:55

have Utah State with Jerry

29:57

bear up Yeah, do the

29:59

down call yeah they leave it's

30:02

one of these yeah right no that's

30:04

a horn from a bay lorry what's

30:06

the what's the hand signal for the

30:08

bears the paw paw they do a

30:11

claw I don't know I'm just doing

30:13

the cable paw okay okay

30:15

morbid fact about Baylor basketball

30:18

did you know that they had

30:20

a marshal situation oh in 1927

30:22

they were busing the team to

30:24

a game and the bus driver

30:27

Ended up putting the bus on a

30:29

train track as the as the tracks

30:31

were coming through. What? Ten of their

30:33

players died and they had to suspend

30:35

the season. Holy shit! Not good. Not

30:37

bad. Morbid fact, not a fun fact.

30:39

All gas, no brakes. Should have blown

30:41

through it. There were some crazy stories

30:43

of it. Apparently one of the teammates

30:45

pushed another one out of the window

30:47

before the train name saved his life.

30:50

Good teammate, yeah. Because you know the

30:52

other one too, which is also very

30:54

morbid. I don't, a Baylor player shot

30:56

another Baylor player murdered. They pretty much

30:59

had to redo the entire program. Yeah,

31:01

like 20 years ago. Yeah, so I

31:03

didn't know about either. But this is

31:06

a new program. Yeah, this is a

31:08

new program. And it's good vibes, because

31:10

you guys have Baylor. Yeah, in Wakeo,

31:12

Wakeo, Wakeo, Baylor. Yeah, that was the

31:15

brains. Yeah, we've really put a nice

31:17

spotlight on Bayloral title. Yeah, there

31:19

we go, Baylor, Baylor. Baylor. Okay, I

31:21

like Baylor in this game. How many schools

31:23

have won a national title in basketball

31:25

and a Heisman in the last, I

31:27

thought you were going to say one

31:29

national title and also had murders. No,

31:31

we're not talking about that, we're not

31:33

talking about that, in the last 15 years,

31:36

let's say. One a national title and

31:38

a Heisman trophy. If you go a

31:40

little bit, Florida obviously, if you go

31:42

a little bit further back. I selectively

31:44

put it at 15 years, 15 years

31:46

for that reason. For that reason. Baylor

31:48

Baylor Baylor's the answer to

31:50

that question Okay, okay,

31:53

Oregon this was another I got

31:55

fixated on courts a little bit

31:57

during this I was in my

31:59

I was going to say Oregon,

32:01

horrible, horrible court because I remember watching

32:04

how bad their court is. They changed

32:06

it a little. They changed the court.

32:08

Yes. That's what I was going to

32:11

say. They changed the, it still is

32:13

not great, but they changed the coloring

32:15

of it so it's not as distracting.

32:18

It looked like it had water damage

32:20

for a while. Yeah. No, they definitely

32:22

upgraded it this past year. Yeah. So

32:24

it looks much better now. Yep. That

32:27

was, that was, that's it. They, they've

32:29

improved their court. Okay. Which they won't

32:31

be playing on in this tournament? Yep,

32:34

no. That has nothing to do with

32:36

it. They also have T.J. Bomba, who

32:38

was once a Villanova Wildcat. So I

32:41

like him, but I also hate him

32:43

for leaving. Fun fact. Remember when they

32:45

tried to update Puddles the Duck, who

32:48

we all know and love? And this

32:50

duck, the Roboduck, is fucking hilarious. Yeah.

32:52

He looks like Batman if it was

32:55

a dog. It was crazy. It went

32:57

a little too far. With it. Oh,

32:59

there's Roboduck. Well, that's from, oh yeah,

33:02

you gotta watch the birthing of Roboduck.

33:04

They added Hatch out of an egg.

33:06

It was weird. And then it met

33:09

Puddles. And it was, yeah, one of

33:11

my favorite clips. Yeah. Okay, well, well,

33:13

they played Liberty. Liberty. But I didn't,

33:16

they're worse than BYU string. Oh yeah.

33:18

I looked up in some of the

33:20

things that you can't do at Liberty

33:23

School. They, no R-rated movies, no cursing,

33:25

no hugging, and no dancing. And all,

33:27

and if you violate any of these,

33:29

you get fined. Yeah. I don't understand

33:32

how you can find someone who's paying,

33:34

who's paying to be there. They can

33:36

do whatever they want. What about. Is

33:39

there anything in the rules about a

33:41

love triangle with a pool boy and

33:43

watch your wife get cocked? Uh, I

33:46

didn't, that didn't come across my case.

33:48

Jerry Falwell Jr. Jerry Falwell Jr. He

33:50

was the president of Baylor. The pool

33:53

boy was fucking his wife. And he

33:55

was just sitting there watching it. And

33:57

they have all these rules. then that

34:00

whole thing happened. Yeah, I didn't know

34:02

any, I didn't know about that. You

34:04

don't know a lot about a lot.

34:07

No, yeah, this was, I spent like

34:09

four hours looking for these, by the

34:11

way. You can ask memes, I was

34:14

stressing. Okay. I like, I like Oregon

34:16

in that game. Okay. Okay. Okay. Now

34:18

we're on to Arizona Akron. Yeah. Arizona,

34:21

fun fact. They already have a Cinderella

34:23

on the team. One of their best

34:25

players, Trey Townsend, Trey Townsend was a

34:28

teammateate of Jack Gulki. at Oakland last

34:30

year when they beat. Oh, he's got

34:32

Cinderella D&A. Yep, he had a really

34:34

good game in that game. I think

34:37

I have like 18 points. Yeah, I

34:39

think he was like, obviously Golkie was

34:41

a story, but he was a stud.

34:44

He was a stud. Yeah. Also Caleb

34:46

Love, I think he's been on the

34:48

team for 40 years. Well, in college

34:51

basketball for 40 years. Yeah, in college,

34:53

whatever, you know what I mean. Yeah.

34:55

This is the worst fun fact that

34:58

I found fact that I found fact

35:00

that I found of. I found this

35:02

and it pissed me off so I

35:05

had to tell you. Akron is really

35:07

excited about this, this matchup, because he

35:09

really likes coffee and the game is

35:12

being played in Seattle. That was a

35:14

fun fact that I found. Who really

35:16

likes coffee? The coach really likes coffee.

35:19

Yeah, okay He was excited because Seattle

35:21

is known for their coffee You can't

35:23

get coffee in that anywhere else. No,

35:26

yeah, so he's really excited to go

35:28

to Seattle for their coffee That's that's

35:30

the fun fact that I found from

35:33

Akron. Okay, and that pissed you well

35:35

I want to say right now John

35:37

gross if you guys hit the over

35:39

in this game. I will send you

35:42

Memes is a BYU lever because they

35:44

play super fast and he likes teams

35:46

that play super fast Mm-hmm, and they

35:49

also have like the most NIL in

35:51

the entire country Hmm. Yes, they're they

35:53

have the number one recruit coming in

35:56

next year and they've given him seven

35:58

million dollars and I did not know

36:00

BYU had had NIL money like that.

36:03

Yeah. I also read another article They

36:05

got stupid money. Yeah, I I don't

36:07

know where that money's coming from where

36:10

how do why do the Mormons have

36:12

all the money But what 10% you

36:14

got to kick it up to the

36:17

boss Also I read an article that

36:19

they may have that someone predicted Ritchie

36:21

Saunders would be the the the the

36:24

name of March madness. So that's a

36:26

guy on their team that apparently is

36:28

getting a lot of height. Okay. What

36:31

was it was that documentary? You told

36:33

me to watch Max about the oh

36:35

yeah, the mom influancer Ruby Ruby Frank

36:38

yeah, crazy and then her weird husband

36:40

who I think is just as in

36:42

on it as she was either that

36:44

he's the biggest idiot on the planet.

36:47

He's always rocking be YU gear Interesting,

36:49

so he's a be YU fan. Good

36:51

fun fact. Yeah, very good fact And

36:54

they will be playing VCU who their

36:56

head coach is this will be his

36:58

last time at VCU no matter what

37:01

I am that's my my my My

37:03

prediction... This is a fact. No, no,

37:05

no, I'm telling you this as as...

37:08

Oh! My thoughts is that this guy

37:10

will not be coaching VCU after this.

37:12

Is this... Are you reporting? I'm reporting

37:15

this. You're reporting this. You're reporting this

37:17

that he's going to be a Villanova

37:19

head coach. Or Virginia. It's most likely

37:22

Virginia. Okay. Because I want him to

37:24

be the Villanova head coach, but it's

37:26

looking like he's going to Virginia. His

37:29

name is Ryan Odom. Yes. They also

37:31

have a player Max Shulga who transferred

37:33

who said he was transferring to Villanova

37:36

and then said he wasn't transferring to

37:38

Villanova and went back to school. Okay.

37:40

Wisconsin Montana. Another terrible fun fact that

37:43

I found that I'm going that I'm

37:45

going to share. Montana's forward Amari Jenkins

37:47

and Wisconsin guard Camari McGee. are both

37:49

from racing Wisconsin and they both started

37:52

at their college. at Green Bay. However,

37:54

they did not attend the same high

37:56

school and they weren't at Green Bay

37:59

at the same time. So it's basically

38:01

a nothing fact. Okay, that's a nothing

38:03

fact. I was, I was starting to

38:06

read, I was like, oh, this could

38:08

be good, this could be good. And

38:10

then by the end of it, I

38:13

was like, why even include this in

38:15

anything? They both know the same restaurants.

38:17

Yeah. Well, yeah, I guess at Green

38:20

Bay, yeah. Another thing that I found

38:22

about Wisconsin is that every single article

38:24

about Wisconsin basketball, the headline is just

38:27

the coach is not complaining about quick

38:29

turnaround to Thursday. Love that. But it

38:31

makes me think that no, we're not.

38:34

He should be, he might be complaining,

38:36

no complaining, but everything is just about

38:38

they're not complaining. Can't complain. You have

38:41

the complaint once. No, about going to

38:43

Denver. Nope. The best player also was

38:45

named the second team All-team-American. And last

38:48

thing not good for big cat Montana

38:50

has the best name The best name

38:52

in the draft in the in the

38:54

tournament. Oh money Williams is a guy

38:57

What about danger danger? Montana. That's a

38:59

good name. Yeah, but money Williams sounds

39:01

like a guy who's going to be

39:04

a star in March Men. Yeah. Any

39:06

fun facts about Wisconsin and Villanova going

39:08

up against each other in the term?

39:11

Wisconsin once beat Villanova as an eight

39:13

seed? Stop them from a three-pet. Yeah,

39:15

Nigel Hayes. Nigel Hayes decided to be,

39:18

you know. The one year in between,

39:20

they're Villanova's championship. Wisconsin's been really good

39:22

recently. Max, do you know, the last

39:25

team to beat Wisconsin in the NCWA

39:27

tournament? Jamie. Yes, a Jamie dude. I

39:29

also have a fun fact about that

39:32

game. I was watching that game at

39:34

my friend's house at Delaware and he

39:36

had friends that were coming over. that

39:39

apparently had to leave because I was

39:41

it was like I couldn't watch a

39:43

game with that that's fair he was

39:46

freaking out so much yeah but you

39:48

guys were defending champions I was pissed

39:50

and and And yeah, I mean, you

39:53

won, you won titles on either side,

39:55

so it's not really. Yeah, it's okay.

39:57

But at the time I was, yeah.

39:59

Okay. I like, I like Wisconsin in

40:02

that game. Okay. Now we're on to

40:04

St. Mary's versus Vandy. Oh, this is

40:06

actually a pretty fun fact. Well, first

40:09

off, notable alumni, St. Mary's, PFT. Deli.

40:11

There you go. Fun fact. Their name

40:13

is the St. Mary's Gales. and their

40:16

name was given to them by a

40:18

sports writer in the 20 who nicknamed

40:20

them that because they had so many

40:23

Irish guys on the team. Oh! So

40:25

that's where they got the St. Mary's

40:27

Gales. Australians are just, they're Irish criminals.

40:30

And now they're just importing from the

40:32

opposite side. I guess so. Good way

40:34

to look at it. Okay. And now

40:37

we have a contradictory fact from PFT

40:39

from earlier. Oh. But I think I

40:41

understand where the contradiction came from. Vanderbilt

40:44

is the first team to first college

40:46

to participate in a basketball game. Mm.

40:48

And that was a nine to six

40:51

victory over Nashville YMCA. Oh, okay. So

40:53

I think maybe yours is the first

40:55

to play another college. Yeah. The first

40:58

college to play. God. Was yours a

41:00

five on five? In 1893 Vanderbilt beat

41:02

Nashville YMCA nine to six in the

41:05

first. College to participate whatever okay Okay,

41:07

this is my last game Alabama versus

41:09

Robert Morris. I have some Bad stats

41:11

about Alabama murder, but I thought that

41:14

I would phone a friend to you

41:16

know Okay, yeah, see if he could

41:18

Say save those facts from being said.

41:21

Yes, I like that. That's a good

41:23

idea. So let's let's phone this friend.

41:25

Let's see if he answers I mean

41:28

he should He's probably is yeah, he's

41:30

good He's got deep Rolex. Rico, thank

41:32

you for answering the phone. he's live

41:35

you are live to tape on part

41:37

41:39

fun facts about this Alabama Robert Morris

41:42

game yeah we went to the final

41:44

full last year we're 11 deep got

41:46

a great coach great fan base friends

41:49

of the program so that I just

41:51

want to know if there's if you

41:53

have any fun facts about Alabama's basketball

41:56

program Yeah, I mean they came out

41:58

of nowhere. They were never good my

42:00

entire life and now hopes that life

42:03

to fire street high seeds Something that's

42:05

never been done before I was personally

42:07

going to say that their coach may

42:10

be involved in a murder allegation I

42:12

called you I called you I called

42:14

you because I I wanted is that

42:16

true man I wanted no it is

42:19

not true oh how do you double

42:21

team three wait it sounds like he's

42:23

he's at home I don't think he

42:26

does have more followers than Max. Let's

42:28

fact check that because that's a fun

42:30

fact. You bring up Rico. Also, can

42:33

you just make sure Rico sounds like

42:35

he's home right now? Just tell him

42:37

to let the kids have the reasons.

42:40

He hung out. All right, the kids

42:42

have the reasons. Oh, he hung out.

42:44

All right, the kids have the reasons.

42:47

Oh, he had that off the top

42:49

of his job pretty quickly, by the

42:51

way. There's a rumor going around that.

42:54

RICO and Max are dating. What? They

42:56

left together on Friday night. Well, they

42:58

were hanging out. That's actually incorrect. They're

43:01

sitting right next to each other. I

43:03

saw you double team. This is actually

43:05

incorrect. I actually have video evidence of

43:08

us not leaving. Oh. We were going

43:10

to go to the bar together and

43:12

then some assistant coach hit him up

43:15

and asked him to go to a

43:17

different bar and he was like, oh,

43:19

I got to go eat. And you

43:21

have video evidence of him on the

43:24

phone with this other. Oh, that doesn't

43:26

prove that. I have him on the

43:28

phone. You guys did make, in fact,

43:31

make plans for a date. Sounds like

43:33

you guys might be dating. Yeah. Okay.

43:35

I wanted, I wanted, I wanted to

43:38

go on a date with him. Yeah.

43:40

But he, but you know, I was.

43:42

You're too busy. I was turned down.

43:45

Triple team in fat girls. Yeah. Not

43:47

triple team in fat girls. I think

43:49

it was, was it, you guys double

43:52

team three fat girls? No. I, I,

43:54

I, I, I had not. I was

43:56

ready to go with ready to go

43:59

with ready to go with that. Further

44:01

record I have nothing to do with

44:03

any fat girls. His kids are right

44:06

there. I had nothing to do with

44:08

any fat girls. They were just happy

44:10

that they could eat the recess without

44:13

getting stolen. But no disrespect to fat

44:15

girls. No disrespect. All right, Hank. Hank,

44:17

you're up. Wait, was there a Robert

44:20

Morse fact in there? I thought maybe

44:22

he would have something about Robert. Oh,

44:24

okay. All right. To me, Robert Morse

44:26

just sounds like a cigarette. I do

44:29

have a fun fact, but this is

44:31

via a stat hole. of all time

44:33

without a win in the NCAA church.

44:36

Oh, Robert Morris. Oh, and eight. Oh,

44:38

okay. Hey. All right, here we go.

44:40

South region. First, fun fact, actually comes

44:43

from PMT alumni. This is not the

44:45

South region. Yeah. West region. Already off.

44:47

West region. Yep. This comes from. PMT

44:50

alumni. Our darling Jake Marsh. Oh. Florida

44:52

said this is this is his tweet.

44:54

This is awesome. Three of the four

44:57

number one seeds in this year's NCWA

44:59

tournament are led by Jewish head coaches.

45:01

Bruce Pearl, John Shire, Todd Golden, Florida,

45:04

Mazzle Toff on a great season so

45:06

far. Wow, fun fact. That is fun

45:08

fact. Fun fact. Also, love you Jake.

45:11

Yeah. Love you Jake. Are all your

45:13

fun facts and be ripped from other

45:15

people? No, that was just a, I

45:18

guess it's not great timing that the

45:20

first one was, but the rest are

45:22

all made. Because you could see how

45:25

we'd think like, oh well, we all

45:27

did hours of research. No, I did,

45:29

I did, I did, I did a

45:31

lot of a lot of a lot

45:34

of research, I did, I did a

45:36

lot of research, I did, I did

45:38

a lot of research, I did a

45:41

lot of research, I did a lot

45:43

of research. North Fork State there's a

45:45

few fun facts here. Okay. One each

45:48

of their previous games by one point

45:50

so there if it gets close they

45:52

know what to do. That was the

45:55

intentional foul game. Did you see how

45:57

that game? No. They so they tied.

45:59

I can't remember. who they were playing.

46:02

It might have been, like North Carolina

46:04

upstate or something, one of those schools.

46:06

Their opponent scored, got the ball on

46:09

a press, scored to tie it, with

46:11

10 seconds left, and then they intentionally

46:13

fouled because he just like didn't have

46:16

time in space. That's how they ended

46:18

up in the tournament. JR Smith, yeah.

46:20

They're one of their most notable alums,

46:23

also recurring guests on this show. JV

46:26

smooth. Oh, yeah, people forget and

46:28

then this is multiple this is

46:30

the wind horse This is the

46:32

wind horse this one doesn't make

46:34

sense to me. I feel like

46:36

Maybe I'm still Brain fried and

46:38

pick that's gonna have an obvious

46:40

reason for why this is all

46:42

the other 16 seeds are a

46:44

hundred and one hundred to make

46:46

the sweet 16 on draftings Norfolk

46:48

is 20 to one. Yeah. Well

46:50

at least two of them haven't

46:52

one yet right right okay And

46:54

then the last one? The last

46:56

one would be... Oh no. Yeah,

46:58

who's the last one? S-I-U-E. Yeah.

47:00

S-I-U, uh, Edwardsville. What is there?

47:03

What are there? Oh, I do

47:05

have the reason. They're in Illinois

47:07

school. So you can't yeah, all

47:09

right, I knew I knew it

47:11

didn't as I was looking at

47:13

it It made no sense. It's

47:15

like what is what is Vegas?

47:17

No, and and that's the other

47:19

the other two have to play

47:21

in the plan The other the

47:23

other four have to play in

47:25

the playing in the playing in

47:27

the last one would be 20

47:29

to one. You can't bet the

47:31

opposite side of that. I wish

47:33

that's a good investment. Yeah Okay

47:35

Oh no, it's 200, no, what

47:37

is it? It's 2001? Yeah. Wait,

47:39

what's it saying? Norfolk State is

47:41

not a hundred and one? Wait,

47:43

this was also this, I swear

47:45

to God they changed us in

47:47

the last hour. Me and spider

47:49

were on this earlier, Meets spider

47:51

were looking at the sort of

47:53

happens when he doesn't get it

47:55

from somebody else. Didn't make sense.

47:57

Okay, moving on. Because I really,

47:59

well that was an opposite of

48:01

twenty to one for Norfolk State

48:03

to make that's a easiest bet.

48:05

That's a great bet. That's a

48:07

great bet. Uh, Yukon. Yeah. Trying

48:09

to be the first team to

48:11

three-pete since UCLA in 1969. Mm-hmm.

48:13

They were led by Lual Cinder.

48:15

A gallon of gas in 1969

48:17

costs 35 cents. That is a

48:19

fun task. That's good. And the

48:21

number one song at the time

48:23

was Dizzy by Tommy Rowe. Give

48:25

us a couple bars of Dizzy.

48:27

I don't know. Dizzy, Dizzy. Well,

48:29

I'll make love. I'll be stroke.

48:31

I'll be stroke. And then Oklahoma,

48:33

this is just some player fun

48:35

facts. Bryson Goodene is from New

48:37

Bedford. That's mass and mass. That

48:39

was a fun fact to me.

48:41

Okay. And then one of their

48:43

top players, Jammy or Fears, is

48:45

from a local guy, Joliet. Okay.

48:47

Yeah, he's saying perfectly. Brother of

48:49

Michigan State Fears. Yeah. Assist machine.

48:51

Another fun fact. Memphis. I am

48:53

choosing to believe this because. It

48:55

is crazy. I don't know if

48:57

you guys seen the Memphis Louisville

48:59

People are saying yeah, the committee

49:01

they accidentally swapped them. Yeah, Louisville

49:03

has a better net RPI Ken

49:05

Palm H lock and higher in

49:07

the ESBN BPI rankings in every

49:09

category yes, but Memphis is the

49:11

higher CD team. Yes, I choose

49:13

to believe that too. I did

49:15

as well because it makes no

49:17

sense other than they just accidentally

49:19

mess it up and they just

49:21

have to live with it. That's

49:23

how I choose to believe that

49:25

they put Wisconsin endeavor not making

49:27

excuses for it. But they're like,

49:29

whoops, we meant to put them

49:31

in Milwaukee. Yeah, I mean, there's

49:33

a lot. They just like mixed

49:35

up a couple things. Yeah, they're

49:37

moving around a lot of things.

49:39

Things get lost in the show

49:41

and Michigan should have been flipped.

49:43

And then they are playing Colorado

49:45

State, whose campus is on a

49:47

5,000 11-foot elevation, which is the

49:49

fifth highest in the country. And

49:51

the highest, or New Mexico, U.C.

49:53

Air Force in Wyoming, in Wyoming,

49:55

are higher. Interesting, I'm interested, I

49:57

couldn't find the reason why because

49:59

Maryland... The biggest crab exporter in

50:02

the country, they're all about

50:04

the crabs. I was curious

50:06

why, you know, the crab five,

50:08

why aren't they the terrapins and

50:10

not the crabs? Why are they the

50:13

turtle? Why are the turtle not the

50:15

crabs? Yeah, I don't know the answer

50:17

to that. I feel like crabs

50:19

just aren't a great mascot?

50:21

I disagree. No, in terms of

50:23

like... There's a turtle though. Right,

50:25

but a turtle is stronger than

50:28

a crab. trap out and then you

50:30

just eat them. I think it has some turtles

50:32

can at least defend themselves. I think it

50:34

has something to do with a flag. I

50:36

think they wanted the flag to be

50:38

the start of the show and so

50:40

they wanted like a less angular cool

50:42

mascots they went with the terraven. And

50:44

the reason that Maryland blue crabs are

50:47

so elite is because they hibernate in

50:49

the Chesapeake Bay during the winter which

50:51

allows them the luxury of building additional

50:53

fat reserves that have distinct look and

50:55

taste. Delicious. They are going up against Grand

50:57

Canyon, which, fun fact, is not the

51:00

deepest canyon in the world. Did

51:02

you also know, fun fact, it would

51:04

take us the entire population of the

51:06

world, 800 years to fill up the

51:08

Grand Canyon with piss? I did see

51:10

that video. 800 years? Yeah. If we

51:12

were all just continuously pissing. We should

51:14

try that at some point. Yeah, we

51:16

should. What is the deepest canyon?

51:18

What is the best canyon? What is

51:21

the best canyon? Oh, plumbets to a

51:23

depth of 17,567 feet, making it more

51:25

than two miles deeper than Grand Canyon's

51:27

6,093 feet. It's also about 30 miles

51:29

longer than the Grand Canyon. Wow, the Grand

51:32

Canyon, I saw it for the first time

51:34

last year. It's grand. It is really awesome.

51:36

It's a very cool place to go.

51:38

I can't imagine the first person who

51:40

discovered it. They're just like walking me

51:42

through the woods and they're like, holy

51:44

fuck. Yeah. Where is Grand Canyon Canyon

51:47

University? Nevada?

51:52

No. Arizona? Yeah. Yeah, it's

51:54

in Phoenix. It's also for

51:56

profit. You can, I believe

51:58

you can buy stuff. in

52:00

Grand Canyon University. Oh,

52:02

we should. Yeah. Or

52:04

sort it. That would be nice.

52:06

I would not be buying stock.

52:09

I like Maryland in

52:11

this game. Okay. But their women's

52:13

team? Yeah. By stock. You

52:15

caught up on their women's

52:18

team? I did. Yeah. I understand

52:20

now. I understand it

52:23

now. Mizzo. This is what

52:25

makes the March Madness great.

52:27

Missouri. 3,543. The University of

52:29

Missouri only has 3,000 students.

52:31

Oh, 31,500. There you go.

52:34

There you go. That does

52:36

make it great. 3,543, Drake

52:38

has 4,774. Missouri's leading score

52:41

went to Duke for two

52:43

years. Fun fact, I'm sure

52:45

they'll mention that in the

52:48

broadcast. And Jeremy Piven is

52:50

an alum of Drake. Nice. Love

52:52

it. Also, one of, one of,

52:54

didn't, wouldn't have thought Drake was

52:56

in Iowa. Yep. Iowa, yeah,

52:59

you got it. Yep. Where

53:01

would you think it was?

53:03

I don't know if you're

53:05

bringing Toronto somewhere like the

53:08

Northeast or like, I don't know,

53:10

you know, Pennsylvania, Ohio,

53:12

Kansas. Seems like a rush.

53:15

I guess, Kansas. Yeah.

53:17

Texas, Tech, moving on. The

53:19

mascot is named the mask

53:21

rider. Jeffrey? But true fans know

53:23

that the mass writer's real name

53:25

is Jeffrey. Jeffrey. So when you

53:28

see him on the broadcast, they'll

53:30

say, oh, it's a mass writer,

53:32

you can say, no, his real

53:34

name is actually Jeffrey. And even

53:37

say like, hey, that's Jeffrey.

53:39

Yeah. Yeah. Give a shout out to

53:41

Jeffrey. Yep. They are going up against

53:43

UNC Wilmington. There are 17

53:45

schools in the University

53:47

of North Carolina. Their

53:49

mascot is the fighting pickle.

53:51

Whoa! One of the best

53:53

mascots I've ever seen.

53:56

That's cool. If someone hears

53:58

listening from UNCOA... Doubt it

54:00

I would love some fighting pickle

54:03

gear because look look at check

54:05

it out. I'm checking out right

54:07

now The UNC Williamson is the

54:10

Seahawks that's one you can just

54:12

throw around to people makes you

54:15

feel like you know ball Not

54:17

as good as the fighting pickle.

54:19

Yeah, well the fighting pickles fighting

54:22

pickle's awesome He's got like a

54:24

little cavalier soul patch mustache thing

54:26

going on. Yeah That's cool. That's

54:29

cool mascot. Let's get some fighting

54:31

pickle March Okay Kansas versus Arkansas,

54:33

Arkansas, our Kansas. Kansas, so both

54:36

of these names, they're so similar

54:38

and it's because they're both named

54:40

after Native American tribes and I'm

54:43

guessing it's Kansas means wind. Oh,

54:45

okay. You're guessing? Or like, oh,

54:48

let me pull up. Let me

54:50

pull up. This is a fun

54:52

fact. Well, no, the... That was

54:55

a fun fact you can find

54:57

out. I had different, I had

54:59

different notes. How come Kansas is

55:02

pronounced Kansas and then Arkansas is

55:04

pronounced Arkansas, not our Kansas? Because

55:06

they're both, they're different tribes. Got

55:09

it. Now that's a fun fact.

55:11

Mm-hmm. South wind or wind of

55:14

the people? Mm-hmm. Okay. That's Kansas.

55:16

And also Arkansas is a different

55:18

type of wind? No, it's also,

55:21

it's wind. I mean, it's wind

55:23

battle. Yeah. Got it. Coach

55:26

Cal yeah, very superstitious He once he

55:28

said he wouldn't he wouldn't start a

55:30

player who got a haircut on game

55:33

day So if you play for Coach

55:35

Cal no haircuts. Wow the Yankees and

55:37

he hates raisins and oatmeal If he

55:40

walks into like where they're having breakfast

55:42

and he sees raisins and oatmeal he

55:44

said he once they were on like

55:47

a 25 game win streak or something

55:49

at home and he walked in saw

55:51

raisins oatmeal threw it across the wall

55:54

they lost the game. Wow he also

55:56

collects Bobby pins boby pins Hmm. He

55:58

thinks they're good luck if he finds

56:01

a bobby pin. He saves it and

56:03

he is a clay What is a

56:05

Bobby pin? Is it? It's like the

56:08

thing in your suits, I think, or

56:10

something? Yeah, it's like the little tiny

56:12

thing. Oh, the tiny hair clips, yeah.

56:15

Yeah. That's a fun fact. That is

56:17

a fun fact. Those counts kind of

56:19

weird off. Yeah, that is weird. Yeah,

56:22

that is weird. Yeah, notable pro golf

56:24

alums. Gary Woodland went to Kansas. He

56:26

has six pro wins, one major. John

56:29

Daly went to Arkansas. He has 19

56:31

pro wins and two major. You got

56:33

one more game? I do. Where are

56:36

my notes? St. John's in Omaha. Uh,

56:38

Omaha was just an indicator word Manning

56:40

explained. It was a trigger word that

56:43

meant he changed the play. There was

56:45

low time in the clock and the

56:47

ball needed to be snapped right now.

56:50

Kind of let my off in some

56:52

time and know that hey, we've gone

56:54

to plan B. There's low time in

56:57

the clock. It's a rhythmic three syllable

56:59

word. Omaha set hut, jimbo sex positions.

57:01

Good job. And then say, John's, I

57:04

think they're gonna, my fun fact is

57:06

so fun. I've been to a ton

59:03

of these games in March and it

59:05

is a lot of fun. All right.

59:07

I am up last region. We have

59:10

the Midwest. Am I in the Midwest?

59:12

You are the Midwest. I am in

59:14

the Midwest. I am in the Midwest.

59:17

You got to get your hands on

59:19

one of one of these bracket. These

59:21

brackets. First, big picture from my region.

59:24

Three of the teams in the Midwest

59:26

are in the top six for most

59:28

tournament appearances without a final four. So

59:31

Xavier has been in the tournament 29

59:33

times, no final fours. Tennessee's been in

59:35

the tournament 26 times, no final fours.

59:38

Utah State's been in the tournament 24

59:40

times, no final fours. First match up,

59:42

Houston versus SIU Edwardsville, Houston, speaking of,

59:45

has the most final four appearances without

59:47

a national title. So they've been to

59:49

the final four six times, they've never

59:52

won the title. The next in line

59:54

for them is Illinois and Oklahoma both

59:56

have been to five and never won

59:59

a title. Also, Little Wayne attended University

1:00:01

of Houston for a year in 2005,

1:00:03

majored in political science. So shout out

1:00:06

political science majors. I did not know

1:00:08

that. Pretty cool. Let's get him talking

1:00:10

some polys. I was Stephen A. Smith.

1:00:13

Yeah, then he had to drop out

1:00:15

and he went to the University of

1:00:17

Phoenix and finished his degree. Edwardsville. What?

1:00:20

I don't know if he finished his

1:00:22

degree but he went to University of

1:00:24

Phoenix after. Little Wayne went to Houston.

1:00:26

He enrolled in Houston and allegedly was

1:00:29

getting good grades. That's what he said.

1:00:31

2005 to 2005. PolySide Major. Pretty fun

1:00:33

fact, huh? Yeah, that'll blow your mind.

1:00:36

Uh, S-I-U- Edwardsville. Uh, it is the

1:00:38

first ever NCWA tournament appearance for them

1:00:40

because they became D- Well he was

1:00:43

like putting music out. Yeah I know.

1:00:45

You can do both. Yeah you can

1:00:47

do both. You probably saw higher education

1:00:50

was like I was wildly misled by

1:00:52

this title. Yeah. I'm left. They are,

1:00:54

this is our first ever tournament, NCAA

1:00:57

tournament appearance. They were, became D1 in

1:00:59

2008. Also if you want to sound,

1:01:01

get a little cheeky at the bar.

1:01:04

Say you like the Cougars in this

1:01:06

game. I do like to get cheeky

1:01:08

at this game. I got the Cougars,

1:01:11

also Houston's going by a billion. S-I-U

1:01:13

Edwardsville's 34th largest college in America by

1:01:15

acreage. Okay, kind of cool. It's down

1:01:18

by St. Louis. Notable alums, Jeff Tweedy

1:01:20

from Wilco, Bill Plashkey, and this one,

1:01:22

I feel like, is stolen Valor because

1:01:25

everyone talks about the big show, the

1:01:27

wrestler, going to Wichita State. He finished

1:01:29

his career at SIU Edwardsville. That's where

1:01:32

he got the degree from? Yeah, and

1:01:34

he played D2-2 basketball there. Okay, so

1:01:36

we need to put some more respect

1:01:39

to the big show going to SIU-S-I-U-E.

1:01:41

Yeah, also game notes for this one

1:01:43

I had. Houston has played five teams,

1:01:46

200 or worse in Ken Palm. Here

1:01:48

are the scores, 97 to 40 against

1:01:50

Jackson State, 91 to 45 against Louisiana,

1:01:53

80 to 44 against Hofstra, 78 to

1:01:55

49 against Toledo, 87 to 51 against

1:01:57

Texas A&M, Corpus Christi. Dead. Dead. Not

1:02:00

good. Not good. Not good. Not good.

1:02:02

Kinsaga in Georgia. Kinsaga is going for

1:02:04

their 10th straight sweet 16, which is

1:02:07

insane. Yep. That's an insane. Nine straight

1:02:09

sweet 16s is nuts. Also, I found

1:02:11

out one of Mark Few's dogs, who

1:02:14

you might remember from his DUI video,

1:02:16

is named Stella. Oh, that's fun. And

1:02:18

he brings her to practice. With a

1:02:21

record like that, Mark Few could have

1:02:23

also gone to Georgia. Yeah, that's true.

1:02:25

Mark Few also. He loves fishing so

1:02:28

much, he convinced his dentist to shave

1:02:30

down a piece of his front tooth

1:02:32

so he can better use it to

1:02:35

cut fishing lines with his teeth. That's

1:02:37

kind of creepy. So he put like

1:02:39

a little notch in there so he

1:02:42

can line it up? I think it

1:02:44

was like, it had gotten a little

1:02:46

like, there was an indentation for where

1:02:49

he had been doing it because it

1:02:51

was like wearing down. Yeah. And the

1:02:53

dentist was like, we could, we could

1:02:56

replace the tooth. He's like, can you

1:02:58

just. Keep going. That's crazy, but I

1:03:00

actually respect that. Yeah, he's very competitive.

1:03:03

It was they I read an interview

1:03:05

with his fishing. He's like he's so

1:03:07

competitive even when fishing. Pretty cool. All

1:03:10

right, Georgia. Does anyone know the last

1:03:12

time Georgia won a tournament game? Did

1:03:14

Tom Crane win one. Did not. 2008.

1:03:17

2002. And so this got me thinking

1:03:19

and I went down a little rabbit

1:03:21

hole of just searching because it makes

1:03:24

no sense. Georgia's a huge school. Of

1:03:26

the 10 college football national champions since

1:03:28

2002, seven out of 10 of them

1:03:31

have been to a final four. All

1:03:33

10 of them have been to an

1:03:35

elite eight. All of them have won

1:03:38

a minimum of six tournament games and

1:03:40

Georgia has not won a game. That's

1:03:42

crazy. So you go down the list

1:03:45

like Ohio State, 21 wins, final four,

1:03:47

Michigan, 25 wins, final four, Alabama, 13,

1:03:49

Clemson, six wins, lead eight, that was

1:03:52

actually the worst. UCF? UCF I did

1:03:54

not have on there, but they've won

1:03:56

game. and the tournament. Florida obviously 33

1:03:59

wins, national championship, Texas, 20 wins, final

1:04:01

four, USC, eight, lead eight, Georgia. Zero

1:04:03

win. Combined, 154 tournament wins for all

1:04:06

other programs that have won a national

1:04:08

title in football and Georgia has had

1:04:10

zero wins since 2002. That's kind of

1:04:13

crazy. Why do you think they've had

1:04:15

some decent players too, right? It's obviously

1:04:17

you can do the like Villanovas of

1:04:20

basketball school, football is not. But it's

1:04:22

rare to have such a football, when

1:04:24

you have a big robust football program,

1:04:27

that means you have a lot of

1:04:29

money in the athletic department, the basketball

1:04:31

school should at least be in the

1:04:34

tournament every now and then, and at

1:04:36

least winning tournament. It also means that,

1:04:38

yeah, you can fund a decent basketball

1:04:41

program with what you get. And you

1:04:43

want to have your fan base spend

1:04:45

money in the winter time after football

1:04:48

season's over. With basketball, yeah, funding a

1:04:50

great athletic department for football is a

1:04:52

lot harder to do from the ground

1:04:55

up. So this is that I think

1:04:57

that's the biggest disparity. Yeah, I would

1:04:59

say so. Katrina football on a basketball

1:05:02

program. Thank you. You with us. What

1:05:04

are you doing? Just doing some research.

1:05:06

Oh, okay. Nice. Also, this game, just

1:05:09

game note, Gonzaga is a better team,

1:05:11

but Georgia is taller and more physical.

1:05:13

So it would be very interesting to

1:05:16

see how Gonzaga, Zaga has sometimes been

1:05:18

called soft. I guess they have, by

1:05:20

me specifically. Next up, Clemson verse Mcnees

1:05:23

State. So this is Clemsin. I have

1:05:25

gone to a game of Clemsin. Pretty

1:05:27

cool campus. Nice stadium. Not like, it

1:05:30

was good. Clemsin is also a cult

1:05:32

that doesn't get enough credit for being

1:05:34

a cult. They all wear their class

1:05:37

rings. Didn't realize that they all wear

1:05:39

their classroom. So they're in the Texan

1:05:41

Am Notre Dame camp in there. There's

1:05:44

a rule on campus before football games.

1:05:46

You have to wear orange on Fridays.

1:05:48

It sounds like you get arrested if

1:05:51

you don't. Yep. They also do the

1:05:53

$2 bill thing where this started because

1:05:55

in 19. Georgia Tech in Clemsin used

1:05:58

to play every year in Atlanta and

1:06:00

Georgia Tech canceled their rivalry game and

1:06:02

so George Bennett an executive director of

1:06:05

Clemsin's booster club said all Clemsin fans

1:06:07

let's use two dollar bills to show

1:06:09

the impact we have on the economy.

1:06:12

Yep. Now it's kind of just their

1:06:14

bragging. Now they don't even make two

1:06:16

dollar bills anymore. Yeah. They're just bragging

1:06:19

though. You probably have to, if you're

1:06:21

a Clemson fan and you're planning a

1:06:23

road trip, you have to go to

1:06:26

the bank. Yeah. And ask for like

1:06:28

all the two dollar bills that you

1:06:30

might have behind the scenes. You have

1:06:33

to plan these road trips. And they're

1:06:35

kind of just being like, look at

1:06:37

how awesome we are. Everyone's got two

1:06:40

dollar bills now. Yeah, we travel well.

1:06:42

And then there's also a statue Thomas

1:06:44

Green Clemson in Tillman Hall statue. You're

1:06:47

not allowed to. I could. I'll fucking

1:06:49

do it, but you're not allowed to

1:06:51

read the plaque. What do they do?

1:06:54

Is there a punishment if they catch

1:06:56

you reading the plaque? I don't know.

1:06:58

I asked, uh, we have a co-worker,

1:07:01

Kayla, who went to Clemson. I was

1:07:03

like, did you read that plaque? She's

1:07:05

like, I don't remember. I was like,

1:07:08

sounds like you, you specifically didn't read

1:07:10

the plaque? She's like, I don't remember.

1:07:12

I was like, sounds like, you, you

1:07:15

specifically didn't, you specifically didn't read the

1:07:17

plaque, didn't read the plaque, you, you,

1:07:19

you, you, you, you, you, you specifically,

1:07:22

you specifically didn't read the plaque, you,

1:07:24

you, you, you, you, you specifically, you

1:07:26

specifically, you, you specifically, you, you specifically,

1:07:29

you, you, you specifically, you, you, you,

1:07:31

you specifically, you, you specifically, you, you

1:07:33

specifically, you, you specifically, you, you, you,

1:07:36

you specifically, you, you It's they've got

1:07:38

a gas station. Yeah, they've got a

1:07:40

rock. It's small. And then they have

1:07:43

a hill. Yeah, it's very small. Yeah,

1:07:45

the bars were cool. Once a couple

1:07:47

bars there. Yeah, that's the Clemson class

1:07:50

ring. And they switched the C around

1:07:52

when you graduate. McNeese State. It's all

1:07:54

about Amir Khan. Viral student manager. He's

1:07:57

the nickname is aura. And he's the

1:07:59

first student manager to ever sign an

1:08:01

NIL deal. He got to deal with

1:08:04

Buffalo Wild Wings ticks ticks pick picks

1:08:06

and insomnia cookies and he has the

1:08:08

quote if they kept manager stats for

1:08:11

rebounding and wiping up wet spots on

1:08:13

the court I'd put up wilt Chamberlain

1:08:15

numbers. Yeah this guy rocks he's the

1:08:18

best I've seen a bunch of videos

1:08:20

with this dude. Yeah he is he's

1:08:22

worth every penny. Yeah. One note on

1:08:25

this game, McNe's State actually played two

1:08:27

power five programs this year. They lost

1:08:29

by eight to Alabama and three to

1:08:32

Mississippi State. So they might be able

1:08:34

to hang. Fighting Will Wade's. Okay, next

1:08:36

up, Purdue High Point. I got Purdue.

1:08:39

I'm gonna keep it clean here. Purdue

1:08:41

has produced 27 astronauts. And they also

1:08:43

have the first and last guy to

1:08:46

walk on the moon. So Neil Armstrong

1:08:48

first. Eugene Cernon last. You mean a

1:08:50

soundstage in Burbank, California? Yes. Okay. Also

1:08:53

I found out that 16% of people

1:08:55

who have been on the moon are

1:08:57

named Alan. That is a fun fact.

1:09:00

Yeah. Alan Shepard and the other Alan.

1:09:02

There's another Alan? Yeah. Also over 70%

1:09:04

of produced students graduate as virgins. High

1:09:07

point. I don't know if you guys

1:09:09

know anything about High Point. I actually

1:09:11

talked to Kelly Keague's, our co-worker who

1:09:14

went to High Point. They have the

1:09:16

second longest wind streak in the country

1:09:18

right now with 14. High Point University

1:09:21

is, they basically made like a Sims

1:09:23

College because it looks like Disneyland. There's

1:09:25

like 15 pools. There's a, Max, you're

1:09:28

gonna like this because I know I

1:09:30

liked it. There is a ice cream

1:09:32

truck. that you can that's free to

1:09:35

all students that you can get in

1:09:37

between classes it's free all the time

1:09:39

yeah that isn't a credit that's that

1:09:42

I think it's part of your meal

1:09:44

thing but it's like you just go

1:09:46

you get ice cream that is the

1:09:49

best perk high point also has a

1:09:51

steak restaurant that you can go to

1:09:53

once a month free and it is

1:09:56

The goal of the state restaurant is

1:09:58

it's a fine dining learning lab aims

1:10:00

to teach students business and social etiquette,

1:10:03

including how to eat in a professional

1:10:05

setting. They're literally teaching them how to

1:10:07

eat. High Point's not real world. I'm

1:10:10

gonna guess a high point might have,

1:10:12

like, Yale, High Point might have sneaky

1:10:14

the highest tuition. It's it's a great

1:10:17

like looking at the campus seeing all

1:10:19

this stuff that also like the president

1:10:21

is from the country Jordan and he

1:10:24

made it from High Point College to

1:10:26

High Point University and then he built

1:10:28

all this stuff 70,000 dollars a year.

1:10:31

It's insane. Like if you look at

1:10:33

anything about High Point it's it basically

1:10:35

is like a movie set for a

1:10:38

college. That's very funny. They're like it's

1:10:40

70,000 dollars a year, but Free ice

1:10:42

cream while you're here. Yeah, and you

1:10:45

get to learn how to eat a

1:10:47

steak. Yeah. Also, High Point South Carolina

1:10:49

is the furniture capital of the world.

1:10:52

Yeah, North Carolina Furniture is a real

1:10:54

thing. Yeah, so they have like a

1:10:56

furniture expo every year. Pretty crazy. My

1:10:59

only game note from, oh, they also

1:11:01

have a guy, a seven-footer, Justin, I

1:11:03

like that. Just like it. My note

1:11:06

from this game is... High Point plays

1:11:08

a drop coverage scheme and Braden Smith

1:11:10

is probably gonna go over on his

1:11:13

points and assists. Okay, they're just gonna

1:11:15

run two-man offense, Purdue, all game. Okay,

1:11:17

next up I got Illinois versus Texas

1:11:20

and Xavier. My Illinois, fun fact is

1:11:22

I have two of them. Tom Fridelli

1:11:24

was once in a party with Duran

1:11:27

Williams and Duran slept while standing up

1:11:29

in the corner. Oh, that's pretty cool.

1:11:31

Yeah, way to go Tom. Yeah, so

1:11:34

that was a cool one. And then

1:11:36

my other one. Is that just because

1:11:38

he didn't want to talk to Tom

1:11:41

or? That was really mean. That was

1:11:43

really mean. You don't think that Tom

1:11:45

can party? No, he's saying that he

1:11:48

was, Tom was such a bore that

1:11:50

he was sleeping in the corner. Maybe

1:11:52

Tom, was Tom talking to him while

1:11:55

he fell asleep? Well, yeah, it's like,

1:11:57

oh, no, this guy's gonna come talk

1:11:59

to me. Yeah. Other fun fact is

1:12:02

our guy, Chuck, and I witnessed this

1:12:04

firsthand. would bring a ziploc bag of

1:12:06

Italian sausages to the bar. And I

1:12:09

actually watched this, we were out there

1:12:11

doing a event at Red Lion for

1:12:13

the Blackhawks, I think it was like

1:12:16

2013 or 14, and he literally just

1:12:18

pulled the sausage out of his pocket.

1:12:20

He's like, you want a sausage? Cooked

1:12:23

sausage, not like sausage bites. Cooked on

1:12:25

the grill sauce. Was it hot? How

1:12:27

fat? Pat Moriarty? He actually was in

1:12:30

pretty good shape. That's a wild move.

1:12:32

Yeah. Pretty cool move, though. I ate

1:12:34

the sausage. Was it hot salt? Like,

1:12:37

was it was a temperature hot or

1:12:39

was it just cold, stale pocket temperature

1:12:41

sauce? No, it was like he grilled

1:12:44

the sausage in the morning, then would

1:12:46

put it in the ziploc bag and

1:12:48

then bring it out with them. You

1:12:51

might have been underage. So you might

1:12:53

not come to us, the bar with

1:12:55

us. Yes. Okay. And then they're gonna

1:12:58

play Texas or Xavier? Xavier, Sean Miller,

1:13:00

all-time sweat guy just needs to be

1:13:02

reminded everyone. Yep. Also, Xavier, Zach Fremantle,

1:13:05

has been there for about 100 years.

1:13:07

If you're not familiar with him, he's

1:13:09

very good, but he's been there forever.

1:13:12

And Ryan Conwell, there are other really

1:13:14

good player. You might recognize him. He

1:13:16

was on Indiana, he was on Indiana

1:13:19

State last year. Trey Johnson is a

1:13:21

lottery pick, you should know his name.

1:13:23

And Texas is in the tournament 19

1:13:26

and 15 is their record. And if

1:13:28

you take out teams worse than 200

1:13:30

in Ken Palm on their schedule, they

1:13:33

were actually 13 and 15. So they

1:13:35

beat the fuck out of Houston Christian,

1:13:37

Chicago State, Mississippi Valley State, Arkansas Pine

1:13:40

Bluff, New Orleans, Northwestern State. Texas has

1:13:42

good players. There might not be a

1:13:44

good team. I've seen enough taxes this

1:13:47

year that I would agree with that.

1:13:49

Yeah. Okay. I got three more. Kentucky

1:13:51

versus Troy. Kentucky. Mark Pope met his

1:13:54

wife. She was a personal assistant for

1:13:56

David Letterman and Mark Pope actually met

1:13:58

his future wife's brother and then the

1:14:01

brother called the future wife and said,

1:14:03

when my brother met Mark, he was

1:14:05

like, I just met the male version

1:14:08

of you. He's you, but he's a

1:14:10

dude. He's gonna call you for letterman

1:14:12

tickets. Is that good? Uh, yeah, I

1:14:15

saw White Lotus, kidding me. Yeah, true,

1:14:17

true. And then also Mark Pope wraps.

1:14:19

I saw Mark Pope's wrap. Well, he

1:14:21

did Eminem at the... Creditim for trying.

1:14:24

Yeah, this one was, he did Hamilton.

1:14:26

Do you want to play it? I

1:14:28

don't, there's nothing I want to, yeah,

1:14:31

sure. Yeah, play it. Do I have

1:14:33

a hidden talent? Just in the hopes

1:14:35

that Lynn Manuel that you're watching? I'm

1:14:38

gonna get a scholarship to King's College.

1:14:40

I probably shouldn't brag but dad got

1:14:42

me's an astonish. The problem is I

1:14:45

got a lot of brains with no

1:14:47

polish. I got a holler just to

1:14:49

be heard with every word. I dropped

1:14:52

an olive diamond in the rough. I

1:14:54

signed a piece of coal everybody. Okay.

1:14:56

That's Mark Pope. That's Kentucky. Troy. They've

1:14:59

never won a game. And this one's

1:15:01

a fun fact. Their coach recently went

1:15:03

on record saying he only recruits guys

1:15:06

who like Waffle House. That's not a

1:15:08

bad strategy. Yeah. So in the town

1:15:10

where Troy plays, it's like 15,000 people,

1:15:13

there's three Waffle Houses, so it's like,

1:15:15

he said it's probably per capita, the

1:15:17

highest like 5,000 person. per Waffle House

1:15:20

and he said we often ask them

1:15:22

do you like Waffle House if the

1:15:24

answer is yes we sign them if

1:15:27

it's no we never get them I

1:15:29

like that because if you spend time

1:15:31

in a Waffle House you know how

1:15:34

to handle yourself too yeah you got

1:15:36

street skills yeah facts also Troy the

1:15:38

game note I had Lamont Butler's back

1:15:41

for Kentucky and Troy is one of

1:15:43

those teams that's very analytical they only

1:15:45

shoot shoot at the rim and they

1:15:48

shoot threes only problem for Troy is

1:15:50

they suck at shooting threes. So they're

1:15:52

literally the worst percentage in the entire

1:15:55

field of 68 is shooting threes and

1:15:57

they shoot a lot of them. This

1:15:59

one keeping his staff curry goes wrong.

1:16:02

Yeah, yeah, but they're doing it. They're

1:16:04

doing it. All right, U. C. L.

1:16:06

A. V. Utah State. This one is

1:16:09

just U. C. A. M. M. Unruptured

1:16:11

aneurism in the back of his head

1:16:13

and almost died. Yeah, so I found

1:16:16

a very funny. I went I went

1:16:18

deep I found a very funny dudes

1:16:20

rock moment There was a story about

1:16:23

a man in Minneapolis who saw Mc

1:16:25

Cronin's story He had similar headaches and

1:16:27

he went to the doctor and the

1:16:30

doctor was like oh you have an

1:16:32

unruptured aneurism and the guy was like

1:16:34

I know exactly what that is coach

1:16:37

Cronin's got it and the doctor was

1:16:39

like who the hell is coach grown

1:16:41

in so Mc Cronin saved the guy's

1:16:44

life. This is how dudes learn about

1:16:46

injuries and about like illnesses that they

1:16:48

might have. Yeah. It's like, oh, I

1:16:51

think I think I might have with

1:16:53

that coach has. He literally saw him.

1:16:55

He's like, yeah, I got really bad

1:16:58

headaches. He almost died. And he's like,

1:17:00

oh, fuck. I've had really bad headaches.

1:17:02

Am I about to die? He went

1:17:05

to the emergency room. was about to

1:17:07

die. Good for him. Saving lives. Saving

1:17:09

lives. Utah State, I just have notable

1:17:12

alumni because they have a lot of

1:17:14

guys who played football there. Bobby Wagner,

1:17:16

Donald Penn, Roy Shivers, Al Smith, Travis

1:17:19

La Boy, Eric Hipple, and Chris Cooley.

1:17:21

Those are all the really good football

1:17:23

players from Utah State. They're the Aggies

1:17:26

too, right? Yes. They're the Aggies. Utah

1:17:28

State also is going to zone the

1:17:30

fuck out of UCLA. So I kind

1:17:33

of like the under in that game.

1:17:35

All right, last one for me. Tennessee

1:17:37

in Wofford. Tennessee. Rick Barnes is in

1:17:40

his 29th NCAA tournament. A lot of

1:17:42

tournaments. He is fourth all time for

1:17:44

tournament appearances. He's never won a title.

1:17:47

He's been to one final four, he's

1:17:49

30 and 28 NCA tournaments. Not great.

1:17:51

Their last, is it their last three

1:17:54

years? They won. Yeah, so that was

1:17:56

my other. Okay, yeah. So, 2020 was

1:17:58

COVID-year, no games. 2021, they lost the

1:18:01

first round. 2022, they lost the second

1:18:03

round. 23, they lost the third round.

1:18:05

24, they lost the third round. 24

1:18:08

in the elite eight last year. So

1:18:10

this year, final four. And next year,

1:18:12

championship. think that there would be, but

1:18:15

yeah, so this guarantees that they get

1:18:17

to the final four. Yes, yes. Uh,

1:18:19

Wofford, uh, Spartanburg, South Carolina, uh, notable

1:18:22

golfer Hank, Willie McGirt, do you know

1:18:24

him? Nope. Great name, dirt. Two professional,

1:18:26

uh, wins. Also, they have a live

1:18:29

mascot, terrier named Blitz Three. And has

1:18:31

been the mascot, it has been the

1:18:33

Terriers, the live mascot since it's 2014.

1:18:36

Yeah, those small dogs live a long

1:18:38

time. Yeah, I tried to find any

1:18:40

other news and I couldn't find any,

1:18:43

which I think is a good thing.

1:18:45

Yeah, I mean, the only, I think

1:18:47

that most people learn about geography in

1:18:50

the United States via mid-major schools in

1:18:52

March madness. Yeah. And so when I

1:18:54

learned that this was South Carolina, I'm

1:18:57

like, okay, Wofford, South Carolina, and they

1:18:59

had that one good player- Wofford, 333rd

1:19:01

and Tempo, Tennessee, 346th and Tempo. Gonna

1:19:04

be a slow one. A real slow

1:19:06

one. Okay, I feel like, that was

1:19:08

it. Very fun, fast fun. What? What,

1:19:11

Max? I think that was the longest

1:23:29

1:23:50

local 7-Eleven or on Amazon today had

1:23:52

just walked out yeah so he's supposed

1:23:54

to start off hot sea cool Did

1:23:57

he forget that? I don't know. He's

1:23:59

still, he's not back. You know he's

1:24:01

not back. He's still off. Notes app.

1:24:04

Hot seat. What do you got? Michigan

1:24:06

baseball player. Yeah. Notes app. Oh for

1:24:08

doing a line of coke. Maxie took

1:24:11

mine. But yeah, that's that's what Hank

1:24:13

would have done. Sorry. No, no, I'll

1:24:15

go for it. I was just thinking

1:24:18

I was like, we should have, that's,

1:24:20

that's, it, it was funny. Yeah. Yeah.

1:24:22

It was very funny. He really... Read

1:24:25

the notes after you haven't? I got

1:24:27

it right here. He really took down

1:24:29

that line. Yeah. I would like to

1:24:32

apologize for my actions on third base

1:24:34

yesterday. I made an immature decision

1:24:36

in the heat of the moment. The

1:24:39

gesture I made does not reflect my

1:24:41

character, the household I was raised in,

1:24:43

or the block in that I represent

1:24:46

in any kind of way. I take

1:24:48

full responsibility for what I did, and

1:24:50

I'm truly sorry to all those who

1:24:53

I've negatively impacted by doing this. This

1:24:55

is like Michigan State's tradition of kissing

1:24:57

the logo at center court. Every Michigan

1:25:00

player should snort up the third baseline.

1:25:02

Yeah. I like this. I don't like,

1:25:04

it's very funny. I don't think he

1:25:07

should have apologized. No. What's your cool

1:25:09

throne since Hank left? Hey Hank, do

1:25:11

you want to go? No, you got

1:25:14

it. I sorry I had to pee

1:25:16

really bad. Cool throne PFT. Okay, my

1:25:18

cool throne is Paul Skeens. You might

1:25:21

want to sit down. Oh. He

1:25:23

was named the starter for opening day

1:25:25

for the hours. And they did a

1:25:27

big video production about it too. And

1:25:29

they were like, congratulations. You're gonna start

1:25:31

opening. The dude fucking started the all-star

1:25:33

game last year as a rookie. And

1:25:36

they made it like the Yankees don't

1:25:38

have to put out an announcement that

1:25:40

John Carlo Stanton's gonna be injured opening

1:25:42

day. Right. The pirates don't need to

1:25:44

put out announcement that Paul Skeens is

1:25:46

gonna be the starting picture for opening

1:25:48

day. Right. My other hot seat was

1:25:50

gonna be griff too. the Drake Bulldogs

1:25:52

live mascot. Oh yeah, you're not allowed

1:25:54

to bring your live mascots to the

1:25:56

NCAA tournament unless it's the final four.

1:25:59

Yeah, but they don't allow them in

1:26:01

the building and the Drake Bulldogs they

1:26:03

under Griff 2, their current bulldog, I

1:26:05

believe their record is, at least in

1:26:07

the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament, 9-0. They're

1:26:09

9-0 when Griff-2 is there. You gotta,

1:26:11

if you're a Drake alumni, if you're

1:26:13

Drake administrator, you got a trench coat,

1:26:15

this bulldog. Yeah. You gotta bring them

1:26:17

in a trench coat. I don't care.

1:26:19

You gotta be in the building. Got

1:26:21

it free griff free griff. All right

1:26:24

Hank. My hot seat is the FBI

1:26:26

slash GIA slash mafia. Oh, okay. Oh,

1:26:28

yeah, yeah Trump announced that the he's

1:26:30

actually finally releasing the JFK JFK files

1:26:32

So he was supposed to release those

1:26:34

today. We haven't seen it today. I

1:26:36

hope it happens. I'm sure I mean

1:26:38

he they got to come out right

1:26:40

they got a the Epstein files. That

1:26:42

was a big nothing burger Yeah, no,

1:26:44

obviously nothing's gonna come. Who do you

1:26:46

think? But they like, I like how

1:26:49

they keep saying like, because I'm sure

1:26:51

in a couple like weeks or month

1:26:53

they're gonna say, now we're gonna release

1:26:55

the same files. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Who

1:26:57

do you think did it, Hank? The

1:26:59

CIA. The guy, his driver. Yeah, turn

1:27:01

around, got him. Yep. I think it's

1:27:03

the dude that was from Illinois. That

1:27:05

guy did that shit. Yeah, or Jack

1:27:07

or it charges Jack Ruby killing that

1:27:09

guy. Yeah, yeah. And then the craziest

1:27:12

part about Jack Ruby, he went to

1:27:14

prison and then one of the doctors

1:27:16

that ran in MK Ultra went to

1:27:18

visit him, gave him like a dose

1:27:20

of some medication, then Jack Ruby went

1:27:22

insane right after that visit. Damn, damn.

1:27:24

Makes you think. Finally, we'll know the

1:27:26

truth. My cool throne is podcast P

1:27:28

with Paul George. Is it back? Yeah,

1:27:30

so he on February 26 said, uh,

1:27:32

I want to let the podcast P

1:27:34

family know that after today's episode with

1:27:37

Dwight, I... to take a break from

1:27:39

the pod just to focus on getting

1:27:41

my body right mentally right and you

1:27:43

know help this squad make a push

1:27:45

towards our goal to finish the season

1:27:47

out and gives ourselves a chance to

1:27:49

be in contention for to compete for

1:27:51

a championship. And then today these sixers

1:27:53

announced that Paul George received injections in

1:27:55

his left muscle and left knee on

1:27:57

Monday and has been ruled out for

1:28:00

the rest of the season. So he's

1:28:02

bringing it back. the couch again to

1:28:04

go use the bathroom during a segment.

1:28:06

Or you were just talking as oldie.

1:28:08

I love that oldie calls you P.

1:28:10

Yeah, so funny. Podcast B. Makes it

1:28:12

good every time. It's a good nickname.

1:28:14

P. I like it. Okay, my hot

1:28:16

seat, I have two, is my sleep

1:28:18

because I woke up this morning, four,

1:28:20

thirty this morning to watch the Cubs

1:28:22

lose the Dodgers. Turns out the Dodgers

1:28:25

are still really good. Yeah. And they're

1:28:27

gonna win a lot of game. I

1:28:29

hate this. was pitching a no hitter

1:28:31

through four which doesn't really count through

1:28:33

four through four walks and they pulled

1:28:35

them because I think they're trying to

1:28:37

be very like cautious with the fact

1:28:39

they have to go all the way

1:28:41

back from Japan and then there's 10

1:28:43

days before actual opening days so it's

1:28:45

weird but the daughters are really good

1:28:48

did you see any more highlights? Yes

1:28:50

they had so they had a high

1:28:52

they had what I think was the

1:28:54

camera we watched from behind the plate

1:28:56

and it was just the player The

1:28:58

batter was just totally pixelated every time.

1:29:00

Yeah, it was garbage. Yeah, it's weird.

1:29:02

It was garbage. So it's not one

1:29:04

camera. I don't know what it was.

1:29:06

It was a combination of a bunch

1:29:08

of cameras. Every time it looked like

1:29:10

your TV broke, it would show this

1:29:13

highlight. So it sucked. Your thought tank,

1:29:15

no comment. Also, hot seat Aaron Rogers,

1:29:17

because Kim Hayward said, I ain't doing

1:29:19

that darkness retreat. And he said, I

1:29:21

don't need any of that crap. Pittsburgh

1:29:23

Steelers. Yeah, I like that from Cam

1:29:25

Hayward. Yeah, he's like this is what

1:29:27

Aaron Rogers is doing right now. It's

1:29:29

not dealer football. Yeah. And he's like,

1:29:31

I'm ready, I'm about to retire, just

1:29:33

fucking, just let me go. Like, just

1:29:36

figure it out, I'm not doing this.

1:29:38

Also, Schefter said that he thinks that

1:29:40

the Vikings want, he's, he's option number

1:29:42

one for the Vikings. Ah. And so

1:29:44

now it's up to Aaron Rogers to

1:29:46

just decide if he wants to play

1:29:48

there. Yeah. So, the whole thing is

1:29:50

weird. We'll find out. Crazy. An off-season.

1:29:52

This will turn out well. Yeah, he

1:29:54

really is just it is cats in

1:29:56

the cradle with Brett Farrar. Yeah, he's

1:29:58

just learning everything from and he hated

1:30:01

Brett Farrar. I know too. It's perfect.

1:30:03

Uh, cool throne. Two of them as

1:30:05

well. Get your brackets in Stel Blue

1:30:07

Coffee. We're doing a golden bracket. So

1:30:09

1:30:26

1:30:28

Yes. Love that. So go sign up.

1:30:30

We need more. Hank's going to cut

1:30:32

his dick off too. Max. Yeah, no,

1:30:34

no, Max. We're doing it through Wednesday.

1:30:36

Yeah. Yes. I thought Max is also

1:30:38

going to say he's going to say.

1:30:40

That's going to a good off. And

1:30:42

like I said, you'll get to go

1:30:44

to the Final Four with us next

1:30:46

year in Indy, so that's pretty cool.

1:30:49

And then my other cool thrown is

1:30:51

Tracy Morgan. He just had food poisoning.

1:30:53

It happens. I think this was awful

1:30:55

that you're throwing up courtside of the

1:30:57

Knicks game and the game's delayed like

1:30:59

20 minutes. That sucks. I think it

1:31:01

was like in a weird way good

1:31:03

that Tracy Morgan could see how much

1:31:05

he's loved. because I didn't see anyone

1:31:07

clowning on him. Well, Tracy Moore, he's

1:31:09

had this opportunity a few times. Yeah.

1:31:12

It's like the world has reminded Tracy

1:31:14

Morgan like, please, I hope you're okay.

1:31:16

Yeah, like he's had health issues. Yeah.

1:31:18

So everyone, when I saw it, because

1:31:20

I'm the number one puke guy. I

1:31:22

love puke, I laugh puke all the

1:31:24

time. There wasn't a lot of like

1:31:26

joking about Tracy Morgan. Everyone was like,

1:31:28

I hope he's okay Yeah, James Dolan

1:31:30

has got be furious that Tracy Morgan

1:31:32

got food poisoning at MSG Yeah, he

1:31:34

might be kicked out Yeah, also it

1:31:37

was very funny because if you saw

1:31:39

one of the videos Bobby Bacala was

1:31:41

just looking like get this guy out

1:31:43

of it Yeah, he was a goal.

1:31:45

I need my train set It's very

1:31:47

funny puke all right Mark Titus done.

1:31:49

character Eddie gets trapped in a high-tech

1:32:16

SUV controlled by Anthony Hopkins playing one

1:32:18

seriously twisted car owner think think A

1:32:20

phone booth, but if it was set

1:32:22

in a car, this guy is trapped

1:32:25

inside this car by a demented dude

1:32:27

who tortures him. It's not just a

1:32:29

game of survival, it's psychological war. The

1:32:31

question is, would you survive a car

like this? This is the kind of

1:32:35

movie that demands to be seen in

1:32:37

a theater. The sound design alone, especially

1:32:39

the psychological torture sequences, will hit way

1:32:41

harder on the big screen. It's exclusively

1:33:50

welcome on a very, very, very, very,

1:33:52

very, very special guest. It is tradition.

1:33:54

Except that one year when he said

1:33:56

really inappropriate things. Yeah, when he got

1:33:58

canceled. It's tradition, Mark Titus, it's a

1:34:01

lot easier than in years past when

1:34:03

we would have to, he would basically

1:34:05

get hit up. by every single person

1:34:07

in the media world this week being

1:34:09

like, oh, Titus, you like ball? Come

1:34:11

talk to me about March Madness. Now

1:34:13

we work together. Now you own me.

1:34:15

Yeah, we own you. Yeah, two years.

1:34:17

Is your two year anniversary coming up?

1:34:19

Yeah, yeah, I think I've been here

1:34:21

two full years now. That's right before

1:34:24

March Madness, which I don't know if

1:34:26

that was smart or not. Well, no,

1:34:28

it's actually smart because you survived it.

1:34:30

But yeah, we, We always have you

1:34:32

on the Wednesday of March Madness of

1:34:34

the tournament week. I'm excited about this

1:34:36

bracket. Do we need to just say

1:34:38

a quick, fuck you to UNC and

1:34:40

prayers to West Virginia and Indiana for

1:34:42

being left? Yeah, I mean, like, like

1:34:44

you said before, you'll move on fast.

1:34:46

The second, the balls tipped, I won't

1:34:49

give a shit, but it was egregious,

1:34:51

I thought North Carolina at no point

1:34:53

in the season. Did they look like

1:34:55

an NCAA tournament team? Yeah, they're their

1:34:57

their their highs weren't very high their

1:34:59

lows were pretty damn low and I

1:35:01

was I was stunned I was in

1:35:03

all the years of you know That's

1:35:05

how the bracket works. It comes out.

1:35:07

We lose our minds about teams that

1:35:09

got in that didn't deserve it. We

1:35:12

feel bad for the teams that were

1:35:14

left out. This is the most egregious

1:35:16

example that I've ever seen. And the

1:35:18

fact that the AD is the guy

1:35:20

running the whole thing also is interesting.

1:35:22

But this has Michael Jordan's pause all

1:35:24

over it. But when the basketball starts,

1:35:26

who gives a fuck? Yeah, who gives

1:35:28

a fuck to eat? The the more

1:35:30

I thought about it because we did

1:35:32

our instant reactions on Sunday night I

1:35:34

think the committee basically was like we

1:35:37

have four historically great teams at number

1:35:39

one seeds and the rest of the

1:35:41

bracket will just fucking fill it out

1:35:43

however it goes because it's not just

1:35:45

who got left in left out. There's

1:35:47

some weird seating, like Michigan getting a

1:35:49

five. Louisville getting an eight. Louisville getting

1:35:51

an eight. Yeah. Oh Wisconsin going out

1:35:53

to Denver in four days rest. Like
