Chapter 1: Where have fans of the show been unexpectedly found?

0.031 - 22.2 Stugotz

I'd like to know the answer to this question from all of you, the place where you've been most surprised to run into a fan of the show, because I'm always surprised at the reach of some of this and have been for a long time. Australia, we have a big following. And the one that surprised me the most, although when it was explained to me, I understood it better.

22.22 - 38.257 Stugotz

Our show is very popular in the Philippines. And it's because of Eric Spolstra. It's because of everything that happened in 2010 with our show and that team and Filipino Jackson and all of that stuff made him very popular in the Philippines.

Every time Zaz goes somewhere, he tells me, whether it's the Grand Canyon or Notre Dame, anytime he goes somewhere, he's surprised, even though he just joined us, that someone is walking up to him and catching him off guard. So what's the answer to that question around the room?

0

55.246 - 63.157 Unknown

What was the question? I would say the most awkward place I've met a fan is in the bathroom stall at Oktoberfest in Palm Beach. Is it awkward or is it random?

0

63.698 - 67.122 Stugotz

What was the question is where Zaz started the bidding?

67.162 - 86.01 Unknown

Where have you been most surprised to find a fan of the show? I remember now because you asked that and then you did a lot of talking after and then you laid out. I didn't remember the question. I mean, when we were on ESPN, it would happen whenever I would travel over to Europe. I would always run into folks.

86.03 - 99.09 Unknown

So the place that surprised me the most in terms of sheer volume was when I was in Hawaii. And I wasn't aware that we were essentially, for a while there, Hawaii's national morning sports radio show.

99.07 - 113.227 Stugotz

That one caught me off guard, too. When I went to Hawaii, I was treated the way that I'm treated in Miami. And I had no idea. Any restaurant I would walk into, all of a sudden it would have the tables ready for us and people would be excited.

113.547 - 116.771 Unknown

That's just a five-star resort. It could have been the bungalow that you had.

Chapter 2: What surprising connection does Eric Spolstra have with the Philippines?

186.567 - 219.525 Tony

Adam Silver looks like a cute, cute thing. Or frying a bag of onion rings. When Timmy laughs until he has, that's how you know that looks like his bad jack. Let me hear you say, fly. Looks like he's back, Jack. Let's keep on doing it every year. So Ed, Ed, Bert says Mr. Bond, welcome to Tangier. Jeff Fisher looks like shotgunning beers at an escort track.

0

220.086 - 225.417 Tony

If you say this game's the best, I'll say it's a gag. Looks like he's back.

0

225.734 - 228.218 Stugotz

Northwestern is gone from the tournament.

0

228.979 - 240.258 Chris Cody

Jim Harbaugh looks like a casket salesman. Fairleigh Dickinson, 16 seed, repped by... Mike McDaniel looked like a college student on the full-ride scholarship for eSports. What a run.

0

243.804 - 244.806 Tony

Looks like he's back.

249.055 - 272.521 Stugotz

Jeremy has been wandering around here muttering under his breath, not understanding why it is we didn't make a baseball is back jack introduction for him. We did it for basketball. We did it for highlight. We did it for looks like we did not do it for baseball. That's right. Pitch clock will be on the show today. During the show, you will have an hour or two.

272.541 - 293.397 Stugotz

You will get some opening day celebration and also a live pitch clock today at 3 o'clock with Jeremy Teixeira and Chris Cody because baseball opened last night. The Giants got clubbed. The Yankees got four strikeouts from Aaron Judge and still crushed the Giants. Aaron Judge hadn't looked like that in a baseball game in more than a year.

293.597 - 314.837 Unknown

Good showing coming off the WBC for Judge. He has as many ribbies as the Giants do. You know he's 33. That one surprised me. I was picking number one overall in the fantasy baseball because I do fantasy baseball just so I can know some of these names. And it's between Judge and Otani. So I Googled the age just to see like, let me see if one of these guys I can forecast I'm dropping off.

315.053 - 320.964 Unknown

Ohtani's two years younger than Aaron Judge. Aaron Judge is 33 years old. Good pick. Honestly, I'm shocked how good Aaron Judge is.

Chapter 3: Why is Aaron Judge's age a topic of discussion?

1063.949 - 1073.267 Stugotz

Give me the other stat of the day music, Chris, not the long version, the short version. I've got another stat of the day for you that is Luca related.

0

1075.205 - 1095.288 Dan Le Batard

Start of the day, start of the day, this is the start of the day. Start of the day, start of the day, this is the start of the day. Start of the day, start of the day, this is the start of the day. This is the order. Start of the day, start of the day, this is the start of the day.

Chapter 4: How does Aaron Judge compare to Shohei Ohtani in fantasy baseball?

1099.412 - 1121.735 Stugotz

Luca now has 60 40-point games. That is more than Kawhi and Larry Bird combined. How old is Luka? 27. So seven years younger than Aaron Judge because Aaron Judge turns 34 next month.

0

1121.896 - 1124.459 Unknown

And he just turned 27 February 28th.

0

1124.579 - 1150.36 Stugotz

Think about what I just said because Kawhi's been in the league for a long time and Larry Bird obviously was in the league for a long time. That's crazy. That stat is crazy. But the craziest thing to happen last night in basketball? was that Minnesota-Houston overtime. You want to take a guess, Zazz? How many times in the last three decades just a team has been up by 10 plus points in overtime?

0

1150.721 - 1159.735 Stugotz

Just take a guess. Last three decades, how many times has a team been up by 10, get up by 10 points?

0

1159.975 - 1164.122 Unknown

Not a lot. And when you are, it would be like really late in the overtime.

1164.271 - 1181.858 Stugotz

It's been 180 times. OK, so basically over 30 times. It happens five times, an average of five times a season where a team wins in overtime by 10 plus points. But it's not happened at all that a team rallies to beat the team that got up by 10 points.

1181.838 - 1184.602 Unknown

Normally you build a 10-point lead with no time remaining.

1184.662 - 1204.251 Stugotz

It doesn't make any sense that the Minnesota Timberwolves, even in the age of three, and even though you only need five threes to get 15 straight points, it makes no sense that Minnesota had the time in that game to erase a 13-point lead that Houston had. Can you imagine if you're betting on that game

1204.703 - 1227.977 Stugotz

and you have Houston and I'm assuming the point spread in that game was something that was close and you have Houston in overtime and you were rooting for overtime. You were rooting for the game to get to overtime and you're up 13 points and then you lose the game because Minnesota does something that hasn't been done since they began tracking this stuff.
