Summary

On today’s show, Pat and the boys watch along with all of the NCAA tournament action as March Madness is officially here, they discuss the crazy story percolating with Shohei Ohtani and his interpreter Ippei Mizuhara being involved in a $4.5 million gambling situation involving an illegal bookie, potential theft, and much more. To dive deeper into the whole Ohtani situation and what is potentially going to come of this fluid situation is ESPN Senior MLB Insider, Jeff “The Jett” Passan (20:46-44:23). Later, Sophomore sensation from Indiana State University, Cream Abdul-Jabbar, Robbie Avila joins the show LIVE in the ThunderDome to compete 1-on-1 against a representative from the NCAA for being snubbed by the NCAA tournament committee, as well as to chat about his game and who he’s inspired by, the feeling of the team when they found out they were going to the NIT and not the NCAA tournament, what it’s been like dealing with his newfound fame, and much more (1:04:27-1:18:23).
