Getting to witness the final UNC - Duke rivalry involving Coach K, Kansas’ thrashing of Villanova, then the Championship game with a Championship caliber comeback by Kansas left us speechless except for one phrase - rock chalk, Jayhawk! Then, we talk NBA: with the play-in tournament starting, can the Pelicans win two in a row and secure the last playoff spot in the West? Spoiler alert - absolutely! (Homer alert). Big Al gives his picks for both Western and Eastern Conference Champs, and NBA Finals victor. We briefly review the Masters and MLB before closing it out with Diaper Dad Diaries.

Mar 10, 202200:23:26Tap to summarizeBig Bet Brent is riding solo today and starts things off with some NFL News, at the Combine: holy crap a 341 pound monster ran a 4.78 40 yard dash! Franchise tags are being issued (GG Davante Adams) and blockbuster signings and trades are making headlines: the Aaron Rodgers saga is hopefully over as he re-signs with the Packers for a whopping $50 million per year, Russell Wilson is traded to the Broncos for a king’s ransom, and Carson Wentz is traded to the Washington Commanders for a pauper’s ransom. Then we switch gears into March Madness, starting with Duke and Coach K’s disappointing home finale loss to the UNC Tar Heels by 13! Then we go over the ACC, SEC, Big 10, and Big 12 Conference Tournaments all underway and wrapping up this Saturday as Selection Sunday is right around the corner!

Transcribe →College Basketball Crash Course With MacDaddyBets Part 1
Feb 23, 202200:37:36Tap to summarizeMacDaddyBets joins the pod to give us the crash course on NCAA Men's College Basketball. No time to mourn the end of the NFL or worry if Aaron Rodgers' recent epiphany means he's actually leaving the Packers. We start by covering Michigan's Juwan Howard's open handed strike and if the punishment (5 game suspension) fit the crime. Then, the wild finish to the Villanova UConn game, where an intentionally missed free throw cost us both some cheddar as UConn only won by 2. Then, we look ahead at the upcoming slate of games, from Kentucky @ Arkansas to Gonzaga @ St Mary's. MacDaddyBets gives analysis, leans, and picks for everything, including a lock of the week!
