Recap
Big CatWisconsin got screwed by the NCAA Tournament selection committee with an 8-seed
I am biased, but Wisconsin got fucked... they're an eight seed which I'm fine with because they haven't played well but Minnesota is a five seed and Wisconsin beat Minnesota two times this year.
Who Is Back
HankJohnny Manziel is officially back and committed to a comeback after getting engaged
My who's back of the week is Johnny Football... Comeback season. He just got engaged to show that he's committed and he's making his comeback. So it seems like he's got everything going for him heading forward.
Interview
Brent MusburgerStop talking about a Chicago Cubs dynasty; they've only won one World Series
Stop with this dynasty talk. Okay? The dynasty is happening. The dynasty is on. Red Sox fans became insufferable, and now it's the Cub fans... Just get in the tournament, win a game, and get back to me. You've never been in the tournament [Northwestern]. Do something.
Brent MusburgerBroadcasters should never bet on games they are announcing
I really gave up betting on games that I'm announcing... I would not recommend that any analyst or play-by-play guy do a game [they bet on] simply because it influences how you view the game and the athletes that are involved.
Brent MusburgerSome college coaches will 'cover the spread' to keep their alumni happy
I think the answer to your question is yes. I don't want to hedge on it. I think that there have been coaches certainly in the past who would cover for the alumni in a certain situation.
Brent MusburgerThe best betting strategy for March Madness is to always take the underdogs
Underdogs, underdogs, underdogs. [They're always barking.]
Just Chill Out Man
PFT CommenterRussell Wilson acts like a seventh grader who is in love for the first time
This is the behavior of a seventh grader who's in love for the first time... I just don't understand why you have to tell the world constantly that you love your wife.
Explain It To Hank
HankThere is no point to checking out of a hotel; it's a vestige of the past
Explain to me what the reason of checking out of a hotel is... Today I walked down the lobby and there was a line all the way out the door of people waiting to check out. What is the point? They're nerds... Clocks are a vestige of the past. I tell my own time.
