Pardon my take, yeah. Pardon my take, yeah. Pardon my take, yeah. Welcome to part of my take presented by DraftKings. The crown is yours. Today is Monday, March 16th, and we've got brackets, boys. It is time. March Madness.
Hear that. Ooh, it's so nice. You hear that right there? It is so nice. Beautiful, beautiful thing. The selection committee has done their job. By the way, credit to the selection committee. There was really no issues whatsoever. Maybe some seed lines that we can argue about. but the first two out were Oklahoma and Auburn, and they deserve to be out. Yeah, the bubble sucked this year.

What do they say about dad? Yeah. Hey, keep that same energy for an eight-year-old girl as you have for a 45-year-old man. Yeah. So you guys were in Perilous Flight, but the selection show, having to watch Bruce Pearl just squirm as Auburn
