In what is one of the, if not the best sports day of the year, it's certainly amongst the top two or three, the opening day of the NCAA tournament.

I know the first four happen in Dayton.

I don't really consider those. Again, I'm an NCAA tournament purist. This is the big day. This and Friday, wall-to-wall hoops, starting at noon-ish and going past midnight. Yes, sir. It's a great one. Lock in. I'll be honest, it beats a lot more when my team's in it, and my teams haven't been in it a lot lately.

I'm in a pool or two.

I know.

I've got to get into a couple extra ones today.

I think I'm poolless. I think we're doing one at 7 o'clock with Roger the engineer. Yeah, we'll do one here. We'll do a show bit, bracket bit with Roger, see how he fares. Apparently, Roger has filled out a bracket. Oh, that is shocking to me.

Yeah.

I mean, not hard to do.

Just fill it out.
