00:00If I was Bubba, North Carolina's AD, I don't think I'd... I'd like to think I just wouldn't accept that job.
00:07It's like, no, that's insane. Like, it's insane that you would ask me to do that because I have a massive conflict of interest.
00:12No, you would... Are you kidding me?
00:14No, we gotta be fucking better than that.
00:18If you're Bubba, getting offered is ridiculous.
00:20No, I disagree. If you're... I agree with you, it's ridiculous.
00:23But if you are offered the job and you're UNC's Athletic Director
00:28and you have a chance to put your team in and also...
00:30You think it's worth it to him right now?
00:32Get paid another hundred grand, I'm in.
00:37All right, it's the Rundown, Monday, March 17th.
00:41And today we are brought to you by Everyman Jack.
00:45It's a clean men's care brand made specifically for guys.
00:49And they're going to be with us all throughout March.
00:52That's great for us because we have a lot of men here.
00:56From body wash to deodorant, hair to beard care,
00:59they've got everything you need to look, smell, and feel great without breaking the bank.
01:02Every product is made with naturally derived ingredients and no harsh chemicals,
01:07so you're not putting any junk on your body.
01:10Best part, they're affordable.
01:12You don't need to drop $15 on body wash or deodorant
01:15when you can get something incredible for under $10 with Everyman Jack.
01:20That's actually under $10, so that's fantastic.
01:23This is the first men's personal care brand you don't have to compromise on
01:28price, scent, or quality.
01:29Shop Everyman Jack body wash and deodorant at Walmart, Target, Amazon, everymanjack.com.
01:37So shout out Everyman Jack.
01:39That sounds fantastic.
01:41Yeah, I think this time of year you got to put good stuff on you as well.
01:44Oh yeah.
01:45You're sitting there for 12 hours.
01:46There's times you're sitting around or you're running around.
01:48St. Pat, you come back.
01:48What's the number one thing on the stream comment?
01:50This room must smell like shit.
01:52Not anymore.
01:53Everyman Jack is going to be a little deodorant, a little soap.
01:59First topic, NCAA tournament.
02:01I would say the first thing that everyone is talking about is the UNC athletic director
02:07is on the committee and he got $108,000 since the UNC made the tournament.
02:17He did say he excused himself though.
02:20Right before they got there, he said, please don't speak about my school and let me know
02:24about it when I get back.
02:25Of course he said that.
02:26He didn't say, hey guys, we spent a lot of time together, let's maybe put us in.
02:32I think that whole part is fucking crazy.
02:35The fact that that's even allowed and we're all just like, whatever.
02:39We all knew that going in too.
02:42The only thing I'm going to say, West Virginia is the only team that got left out that you
02:47could feel bad for.
02:48It was a pretty cut and dry year.
02:49But it's like, okay, at the end of the year, at the end of the day, it's a business.
02:54You want North Carolina, who's a blue blood.
02:57Everyone knows them or West Virginia.
02:59You're going to pick North Carolina.
03:00Right.
03:01You agree?
03:02It's a TV show.
03:02It's just how it goes.
03:03Yeah.
03:03But it's weird.
03:04I think.
03:04Well, I know.
03:05Why do we have to accept that?
03:06I know.
03:07I know.
03:07I agree, but it's a business.
03:09That's where I'm at though is like we're all doing over the.
03:12Yeah.
03:13I'm with you.
03:13West Virginia should be in.
03:15The chances are that these first four teams win a title is minimal.
03:19So like why get worked up about it?
03:20Just focus.
03:21We have a great bracket, a lot of chalk.
03:22The other thing that's on there too, if you paid attention, a lot of the conference tournaments
03:28were one verse two of these teams in the league.
03:30So we have the strongest top tier.
03:32Everyone's talking about the net and stuff like that or the one seeds.
03:34We also have the top tier mid-majors in a long time.
03:37There was always, there was a bunch of, you know, you finish sixth in the Mac and you
03:41win that, you finish here, you win that, you win that.
03:43I think I actually think the six seed didn't win the Mac anyway, but the one seed wins
03:48the big sky.
03:49The one seed wins or the two seed wins the big sky.
03:51There's one big stealer.
03:52Big West, things like that.
03:53It was one verse two in almost every final and they all got there.
03:56So we've got the best teams in the tournament, top to bottom.
03:59So it's going to be interesting.
04:00It was a soft bubble anyway.
04:01And again, like college football, when like a team didn't get in like the four seeds,
04:06like when Florida State didn't get in, right?
04:08Like five to four.
04:10Right.
04:10It's like that is fine.
04:12They were the fifth best team in the country and we're talking about the 40th best team
04:15in the country, not even getting into the tournament right now.
04:18Who cares about the bubble?
04:20I think it's more just crazy.
04:21The UNC fucking athletic directors on the committee.
04:25There should be a documentary.
04:27They also have like a different tournament chair every year, I think, which is not good
04:32for consistency.
04:33Like if a guy is good at, well, I think so.
04:35I thought I read that on Twitter.
04:37I believe you.
04:39But yeah, I think they have a different committee.
04:40Keep the consistency with that.
04:43Your team is going to be in the mix or your conference is going to be in the mix.
04:46Those guys are going to go to bat for those guys.
04:48It gets really hairy.
04:49It's a not perfect system.
04:52You shouldn't be tied to any team in there.
04:55I was going to say, when they made this selection committee, why was that ever like the pool
05:01of people they were choosing?
05:02That's where I want to know what it is.
05:04Is there not like a better option?
05:06A lot of them were like commissioners of like the big 12, which is fine, but they would
05:10be biased too.
05:11Even that, why does it have to be somebody tied to a team at all?
05:14It shouldn't be.
05:15Yeah, I agree.
05:16It should be someone completely out of it, an unbiased person.
05:21If I was Bubba, North Carolina AD, I'd like to think I just wouldn't accept that job.
05:28It's like, no, that's insane.
05:29It's insane that you would ask me to do that because I have a massive conflict of interest.
05:33No, you would.
05:35Are you kidding me?
05:36No, we got to be better than that.
05:38We got to be fucking better than that.
05:39If you're Bubba getting offered.
05:41That is ridiculous.
05:41No, I disagree.
05:42If you're, I agree with you, it's ridiculous.
05:44Why are you offering?
05:45If you are offered the job and you're UNC's athletic director and you have a chance to
05:50put your team in and also.
05:51You think that's worth it to him right now?
05:53Get paid another hundred grand, I'm in.
05:56He's going to pay a million dollars.
05:57Yeah, but still, that's a hundred grand.
05:59It helps.
06:00His name's Bubba.
06:03What the hell happened, Nate?
06:05Uh, next is the, uh, AP poll had Louisville as a 13th, 13th best team in the country.
06:14And they got an eighth seed.
06:15How the fuck does that, how does that work?
06:17They did.
06:18Yeah.
06:18They, and they get the number one seat overall, not only so as well.
06:21So they probably got the lowest 18.
06:22So yeah, they do win the game in Lexington, which is very interesting.
06:26Auburn, you could say got gripe, has a gripe too.
06:29They did obviously pick where they're going to go and they don't know who they're going
06:31to play in Louisville.
06:33But they're the one overall and they get a very tough eight potentially.
06:36And also Louisville plays Creighton, right?
06:39Yeah, they play.
06:39Louisville's a Creighton.
06:40So Creighton's, you know, has been floating around the top 15.
06:43I know they're, they're up and down in terms of ranking, but they got a lot of talent.
06:47Like I think Auburn and Auburn sputtering.
06:49It's an interesting eight, nine.
06:50Yeah.
06:50There was a lot of weird, like Louisville shouldn't have gotten an eight.
06:52Uh, Michigan won the championship, big 10 championship and just stayed at a five while
06:57the team they beat, both teams they beat are a three.
07:00That makes no sense.
07:01Um, that also, I think is the game ends at five and the bracket starts at six.
07:06So that's always, they just don't, they don't change anything.
07:09How did, um, how did Joe Linardi do?
07:13I'm always interested in that.
07:14I actually didn't like how he does stacked up.
07:16I hope he's, uh, he has one of the best jobs.
07:18I saw a couple of tweets saying he was bad, but I, I always kind of think people are full
07:22of shit when I say that, but it's also like how many, like, I hope he did bad.
07:26Me too.
07:26It's fun, but also he's got the best job.
07:29It's like, he just doesn't have to work until.
07:31He, he tweeted also gets like eight times this weekend.
07:34I'm convinced.
07:35Uh, he fell asleep last night.
07:37He didn't even like happens to the best of us.
07:39I'm convinced.
07:40Uh, he also is getting shit from the committee to make himself look right as well.
07:45Well, I don't think that, I think there's a, there's back deals.
07:48So yeah, it's a weird job.
07:49I mean, listen, I click on it cause I'm a psycho, but he releases, he's got like a fucking
07:55like, uh, life, like summer pool lifeguard job.
08:00They wheel them out for a certain period of time.
08:02And he goes back in the cage.
08:03And that's it.
08:03And he releases a weekly column every week, but it's one of those, he could do whatever
08:08the fuck he wants and no one's paying attention to it.
08:10Nate, just pull this up.
08:12Just a quick note for no reason at all.
08:14Joel and Ari's five-year Bracketology averages, average ranks 118th out of 179 Bracketologists
08:20in the Bracket Matrix.
08:21That's awesome.
08:22Yeah, that actually makes me like him.
08:24He created the industry, but now everybody else has figured it all out and it's like,
08:28he's not the king yet.
08:30And then what is, what is his job?
08:31Is his job to guess what the committee does?
08:34Or is it to like, say like what, what do you think?
08:37I think it's what should happen.
08:39Yeah.
08:39I think it's what should happen.
08:40I think he's trying to guess what it's going to look like.
08:43I don't think he's even putting an opinion out there.
08:45I think he's trying to say like, based on my connections, which makes the job even fucking
08:50stupider.
08:51But that makes me.
08:52How well do you know people in the committee who can tell you?
08:54It just makes me like him more that he just guesses.
08:58I actually didn't like him.
08:59He had Indiana in.
09:00Yeah, it's like Mel Clipper.
09:02Yeah, but it's also addicting where every team, if you like a team and there's a list,
09:06you're going to look at that list.
09:07I don't care who you are.
09:08If it's my list, you're going to look because it's like, oh, did he have my team?
09:11Just so I could argue.
09:12That's why lists are undefeated.
09:14I know that I don't like to say list, but.
09:18Who's the best Bracketologist?
09:20If he's 118th, who should we do?
09:22I couldn't even name three other ones.
09:24There's like that high school and.
09:26Yeah.
09:26You know what I'm talking about?
09:27Bracket Matrix.
09:29Bracket Matrix is a great site because it shows everybody across the line and where
09:34different guys vary and it gets the averages of everything.
09:37But yeah, we're getting in the weeds.
09:38John Rich, if you had to pick a winner.
09:39Yago?
09:40Brackets?
09:40No.
09:41Pick a winner.
09:42Pick a winner?
09:42St. John's.
09:43OK.
09:43I bought one ticket.
09:44You don't have to ask me and Rico.
09:46Maryland.
09:47OK, so we have St. John's, Maryland, Alabama and Duke.
09:50I'm going to say I just say that because I just bought a ticket to the Big East Championship
09:54game for no reason.
09:55I bought one college basketball game in person.
09:57St. John's.
09:58Awesome.
09:59Amazing.
10:00They can't they can't shoot the basketball.
10:01They're horrible.
10:02It's incredible.
10:02I think they could they could be.
10:04That was my takeaway.
10:04They could beat over half the teams in the country without taking a jump shot.
10:07I wish they could shoot.
10:08Like so if they just go on like a four minute run of shooting, they win by like 20.
10:13They play a fast tempo too.
10:15I know.
10:15You think they shoot three.
10:16They play a fast tempo.
10:17I will say.
10:20Anyone watching, I would love to sit, send the man next to me on a bus for 50 hours and
10:26Duke, Alabama lead eight.
10:28We got to get also we got to get in Newark.
10:31I have to go through.
10:31Oh, yeah.
10:32I'd have to go through Wisconsin first.
10:34So wait, you're not getting a ride with 10 different riders.
10:37Oh, it's not.
10:39I could see half the riders don't have their license.
10:41Right.
10:42They all were saying we have to go get Derek from the chat was like, I got to go get my
10:45license.
10:46Oh, my God.
10:47It'd be an honor.
10:48I love Derek from the chat.
10:50Yeah.
10:50He said it would be an honor.
10:51He knew his license.
10:53He also does like buy a car.
10:56I don't know.
10:57He probably uses probably use the bus.
10:59Actually, I don't know.
11:00I mean, you'd be doing content on the bus as you go and stuff like that.
11:05Like easier to do content with riders on the car is going to be kind of hard.
11:10You kind of you could stand up on the bus.
11:12That's the video.
11:14Yeah, but you would feel you would feel bad.
11:16Like, they're going to bring content for you.
11:19They're going to do bad about the riders that will do anything for you.
11:23You feel bad.
11:23I would feel bad going to sleep.
11:24You call people and say, go.
11:26And they do.
11:27They I don't think you should feel bad.
11:28So what?
11:29But anyway, I can see Dave putting the kibosh on the driving, which, again, for the record,
11:34I did not try and get out of it.
11:35Or if I do have to get out of it, I am willingly going out of it up.
11:40So you potentially have to go through Big Cat and myself, which would be funny.
11:44I think it's going to be bad.
11:45My Duke.
11:46I don't know about Wisconsin, but that is going to be good in that region.
11:50I'd love nothing more.
11:51Um, anything else?
11:53College basketball before we go.
11:55No, I'm just very excited about it.
11:56I'm very excited.
11:57I cannot wait.
11:58We'll be streaming tomorrow night, playing games and Wednesday, playing games.
12:02And then I'm sure Chicago has the rest.
12:06Nate, what is that second one?
12:07It's a.
12:08Oh, all right.

13:27Uh, Brian Scalabrini showed up to the legendary title by Pat, um, and put on a clinic against
13:34some dude.
13:35Not some dude.
13:36That's the legend of the West.
13:37Yeah.
13:38So I went, we walked past West for Georgia.
13:42He's there.
13:43He's, he's, he's unbearable.
13:45He lives there.
13:46I also saw him at the city championship game, uh, up in the Bronx and he was up there and
13:52I was like, oh God, that guy's here.
13:54Like he's just the fucking worst.
13:55He lives there.
13:56He's looking to play people for money.
13:59That shot he hit from outside the street, like that famous New York account.
14:02I think that was like the 50th take.
14:04So you hit George the Messiah.
14:06He's unbearable.
14:07His, his, I don't, I don't like the, the act.
14:10I will say, uh, but also for the record too, that I know Scalabrini has turned into a
14:15meme and Scalabrini is this and he leans into it and stuff like that.
14:19Brian Scalabrini.
14:19And I'm not just saying this because of this video.
14:22I saw Brian Scalabrini in college at USC.
14:24He was fucking phenomenal.
14:25He was an unbelievable player at USC.
14:28Obviously made a career for himself in the NBA, but like.
14:30Do you think he's closer to LeBron than us?
14:33Scalabrini?
14:34That's his famous quote.
14:35He goes, I'm more, I'm closer to LeBron than you.
14:38Yeah.
14:38A hundred percent.
14:39He played in the league.
14:39Oh yeah.
14:40You are to me.
14:41Yeah.
14:41A hundred percent.
14:42I think I'm closer to him than he is to LeBron right to second.
14:45Oh, this second.
14:46Yeah.
14:46I think it shifted, but I think I'd measure as I saw him just play that.
14:50He just, they just fouled each other the entire time and he's just taller than him.
14:55And he just backed him down.
14:56I don't think honestly, Scalabrini didn't look good on that.
14:58I didn't think he looked good, but I think his style of play didn't look good, but yeah.
15:03It didn't look, he just charged at him.
15:05He, he had one.
15:06I was going to say, I think he could knock down 10 straight jumpers though.
15:10If he wanted to, he should have done that.
15:11Yeah.
15:12That's a tough room though.
15:13That's why he didn't.
15:14He looked.
15:14Three courts are a tough room.
15:15I think he just was mad.
15:16He was fouling on defense.
15:18Like he, he couldn't defend himself.
15:19He also was fouling.
15:20He was fouling George the Messiah.
15:22Yeah.
15:23Exactly.
15:23Yes.
15:24Like, I didn't like that.
15:25The whole video was really weird to me.
15:27Cause I was like, I thought I was going to be like.
15:29It wasn't a very satisfying.
15:30He fucked him up.
15:31Like it was like, you didn't really get anything.
15:32Yeah.
15:33Like I wish he almost showed it like a little more skill than instead of what he did.
15:36But I like, I'm not even fucking.
15:39I think I could fucking put up a fight against Scalabrini right now.
15:43Put up a fight against George Messiah.
15:46Yeah.
15:46Hey, Scalabrini.
15:47I'm closer to LeBron than you.
15:48So let's do it.
15:51Third, uh, Belichick.
15:54Oh, Belichick.
15:55Uh, he did what?
15:56A picture with his girlfriend.
16:00Very hard.
16:00I don't know.
16:01How, how did he think that came about that conversation?
16:05Like, how do you think it was like, Hey, think we could do this?
16:08I think he said, I think it's more.
16:10So this will be an awesome Instagram picture.
16:12How do you convince him to do that?
16:15Like he's the big, like, you know, I guess he's.
16:18That was a pretty easy answer.
16:21I know.
16:21But I think even with that, like I could see him saying no.
16:24So who knows?
16:24I mean, he's old, man.
16:26That's not, you're just lifting shit up and lifting.
16:29Your legs though.
16:30Huh?
16:31Just stick your legs straight in the air.
16:32That's more on her than him.
16:33No, I think once you have the weight on the leg.
16:35You ever see a leg like,
16:37you're seven years old hamstring.
16:38Yeah.
16:39I'm not talking about his strength.
16:40He's compact.
16:41He's got a core center of my legs.
16:43Don't go straight up like that.
16:44I can tell you that.
16:45All right.
16:45And I think they, but listen, he looks, he looks like he's having fun.
16:49He does.
16:50He does seem to be enjoying his reinvigorated.
16:54He's not like ashamed by it.
16:55He's got to be young.
16:57Recruiting 18 year olds play football.
16:59Now he's got to be younger.
17:01So listen, it's just funny where he was such a miserable prick.
17:05His entire career.
17:06And then all of a sudden he's doing this is I think,
17:08imagine him doing this, like on the Patriots,
17:10like what he was still coaching the Patriots.
17:12That'd be funny.
17:13Yes.
17:14Yeah.
17:16Yeah.
17:16Anything after show.
17:17I think that's really it on the weekend.
17:19No, St. Patty's day.
17:20I feel like today, I feel like the city's a buzz.
17:25Did you feel like that?
17:26To be honest, I don't know if I saw a single green.
17:30We're in a bad spot for it, but I do.
17:31I did see people on the train that were coming in for it.
17:36No, I'm Italian.
17:38Matt Cahill is Italian.
17:39Also, by the way, I got sent to it by a bunch of Italian people.
17:44The Sopranos clip when Christopher says he crossed over to the other side
17:49and says every day is hell is an Irish bar and every day is St. Patrick's day.
17:55Yeah.
17:55Very funny.
17:56There's actually no, there's not a better exchange of tweets of Ken Jack and Dante.
