UConn can't win the championship

I hope UConn can get it done. I don't think they can win it all.

UConn was in the 2026 Final Four. Resolution depends on whether UConn won the championship.

Duke was the best team in the country and should have easily won the tournament

I said on this show a month ago, Duke was the best team in the country and they should easily win the, the NCAA tournament. They were similar to last year's team... I will be front of the line saying, guys, I fucked up. You got it wrong.

Duke lost in the Elite Eight to UConn, so they definitively did not win the tournament.

Duke players suffered severe concussions from the UNC court-storming earlier in the season

I think it's also important to remember that Duke likely had several players that were suffering from severe concussions after the storming of the court that UNC had against them... it's sad that they were forced to continue playing for the rest of the season after such a violent act happened to 'em.

Hot TakeCBBHotSarcastic
There is no medical evidence of season-long concussions; the take is a satirical jab.

The loss to UConn belongs on the Mount Rushmore of bad Duke losses in the last five years

This choke makes the Mount Rushmore of bad Duke losses in the last five years, but barely... 2022 Final four. They lost in Coach K's retirement game... 2023 fuck they lost in the second round by 13 points... 2024 they lost in the Elite eight to NC State... and this year they lost first one seed to lose by in a game where they led by 19 points.

This is a subjective ranking of sports disappointments.

Jon Scheyer might be on the hot seat after another tournament failure

Jon Scheyer might be on the hot seat. I don't know how you don't call a timeout. It's the time. I don't know how you don't like, that's like day, literally day one of camp is like, all right, let's run some, some out of bounds end of game situations.

Whether he is actually on the hot seat is a matter of athletic department perspective, but the take reflects the fan sentiment.

I am not a fan of the Automated Ball-Strike (ABS) system in baseball

I'm not a fan... I just don't understand why you even have umpires in the first place if you're gonna do the ABS thing. There's gonna be so many more [reviews] in baseball.

The take is a personal preference.

Paul Skenes is broken after the World Baseball Classic

Paul Skenes is broken... World Baseball Classic hot seat broke him.

Skenes has been elite in the MLB; this was a total overreaction or bit.
