00:00Shime, you a couple hams richer after that Gators win last night in the National Championship game?
00:06Sure am, Greg. The UConn women and then the Gators, back-to-back nights.
00:10Okay, well, breakfast on you perhaps this morning.
00:13If you insist. I hope people were listening to your FanDuel spot yesterday, Greg, because we gave it to them for free.
00:18Yes, we did, Shime. Yes, we did.
00:20I mean, not a bad basketball game considering overall the college game has zero offense.
00:27Yeah, well, if you like 34% from the field and 39% from the field, I guess last night was a good one.
00:33The stats were on your side.
00:34Yeah, or if you like 24% from three-point land and 25%, I guess it was a good game.
00:40I know. It was, I mean, it was banana numbers.
00:43It's just awful. When you watch a game like that and you don't see 100 three-point attempts, it's just boring.
00:50I don't need 100 three-point attempts.
00:52I don't need a 203-point attempt, but damn, 65% from the free-throw line?
00:58Yeah.
00:58I mean, God dang.
01:00All right.
01:00Well, I'd rather watch a MIAA high school game.
01:04Yeah.
01:04I'm sure the Duke fans are still poking themselves in the face with sharp objects because I think Duke would have walked away with that one last night.
01:14They always got next year.
01:15You know what?
01:16That Florida win over UConn in the Sweet, no, that was to get to the Sweet 16, so it was round two.
01:22UConn was an eighth seed, I believe.
01:23That game where UConn had the lead late in the second half and that team's won back-to-back championships and everybody was just like, wow, you just can't beat this team.
01:33And the way Florida came back, held on, I thought they would win it from there.
01:36I didn't pick it.
01:37I didn't do a bracket, but that game showed me a lot in Florida.
01:41Did Costos pick it?
01:42I know he picked the final four, but who was his actual winner?
01:45Yeah, he picked all the ones.
01:46I don't know if he picked the...
01:47He had a final.
01:48Did he have a final?
01:49Yeah.
01:50I don't remember.
01:50He hedged a little bit, though.
01:52Didn't he throw Gonzaga in there as a hedge or something?
01:54He said maybe.
01:55Remind me.
01:56Yeah, he said Gonzaga would be the only potential team to beat one of the one seeds, and that would be Houston.
02:02Yeah, he hedged a little bit.
