Okay, let's go. Yeah. Yeah. Pardon my team. Yeah. Pardon my team. Yeah. Pardon my team. Welcome to part of my take presented by draft Kings. The crown is yours today is Monday March 23rd and PFT. We've watched a whole lot of basketball. I don't even know where to start. the big 10. Oh wait, I actually do know where to live and well. I know where to start. Max, why don't you wet? Oh yeah. Oh, I forgot about no, I forgot about. Oh, he's going to get wet. I forgot about those cat Max. Villanova losing feels like it was 10 years. It does. It does. Friday night, right?

2:45.4

He just got up.

2:46.4

Friday afternoon.

2:47.4

Friday afternoon.

2:48.4

He'd even say a word.

2:49.4

He just got up.

2:50.4

Went to get wet.

2:51.4

Listen, if you were to ask me my comments about villain over losing, we got a fire of staff. Yeah. We got to get rid of this stuff. We got a bad staff here. So Kevin Willard from people who missed it because there was a lot of madness

3:03.4

Utah State beats Villanova Villanova essentially down the stretch just couldn't hit a shot and

3:09.4

Kevin So Kevin Willard for people who missed it because there was a lot of madness Utah State beat Villanova Villanova essentially down the stretch just couldn't hit a shot and Kevin Willard though, it was I think it was in the first half after The Utah State team ran it must have been like three or four just perfect blobs for easy buckets It lay ups said I got to fire my staff. The most like disconnect between real life, real life human beings and online media. Yeah. Because it was such a clear joke and people, I couldn't believe that there were people who actually thought he was being serious. It reminded me of when was it Brian Kelly that tried to do the throwback to like, I'm in favor of executing my players. And then like, like, Brad Kelly, obviously not a standup comedian.

3:46.9

Yeah, completely botched the delivery.

3:48.7

But like, that's what psycho coaches do when they try to make a joke.

3:52.6

It comes off sounding like they're like their mass murderers.

3:55.5

I thought it was a funny joke.

3:56.7

And then we had the people trying to cover for themselves being like, well,

4:00.3

4:28.0

Unless you're around coaches and you get it. Yeah, I thought it was a funny joke. We had Villanova, Max was sick on Friday, so we didn't even get to see it. I texted him a couple hours after and I was like, this is so perfect, not perfect, but we were commiserating together

4:44.6

because Wisconsin sucked me in all season

4:47.3

and then killed me.

4:49.2
