Wisconsin will probably be a two-seed in the 2022 NCAA tournament

now we're sitting here in the call center and they're a two seed, probably a two seed. At least I don't want him to be a one seed. That's too much pressure.

Wisconsin ultimately received a 3-seed in the 2022 NCAA Tournament Midwest region.

I am a phonetic reader, so Jakob Poeltl's name is Jacob Puddle

We've learned on the show—I am a phonetic reader. Jacob Puddle. I said Yaka Pearl. I'm seeing Yaka Patil. Either way, he told me her name.

The joke is correct about Hank's reading style, but 'Jacob Puddle' is obviously not the correct pronunciation of Jakob Poeltl.

Zion Williamson is a better player when he is fat

I'm going to say something controversial. I think that Zion Williamson is a better player when he's fat. I want him to get fat. Well, in fact, well he D he doesn't play right now. He's a better players to get fatter. Yeah. He just needs to get so fat that they roll them out there.

This is a subjective and satirical claim about performance vs. weight.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.
