00:00Mike, I got to tell you, seriously, I just saw Joe Minardi is doing Bracketology and

00:12we're in like the ninth day of the college basketball season.

00:17My man has already got Kansas as the top seed and San Diego State the first team out, Michigan

00:24the last team in.

00:26He's got-

00:27I can't do it.

00:28I refuse.

00:29I refuse.

00:30I refuse.

00:31Should it be against the law to start doing Bracketology the like ninth day of the season?

00:40This guy's already putting out who's going to be in the NCAA tournament.

00:44I mean, what is happening to the world?

00:47This shouldn't even be allowed.

00:49I think no one should even mention anything about the NCAA tournament or their at-large

00:56berths or their top seeds until, at a minimum, February the 1st, which is one month before.

01:05But because I know the world that we live in, I'd even take January 1st because I know

01:11they've got to pump Minardi out there.

01:13They're going to do it every week, the entire season.

01:18Doing Bracketology in the middle of November when teams haven't played- there are teams

01:25that haven't even played two games yet.

01:27What's Indiana played?

01:28One game?

01:29Two.

01:30Played two games.

01:31Two games.

01:32Three games.

01:33Tops.

01:34Is the most ridiculous thing ever.

01:36And I understand you need to justify paying Joe and the other big Bracketologists all

01:42across the country their salaries by make sure you're churning out that Bracketology content.

01:49But in the middle of November is a disgrace.

01:52It's just we don't need it.

01:53We don't need it.

01:54It's just too much.

01:55Now, there's probably people, Scotty, that all they do is watch college basketball.

02:00They don't care about anything else and the rest of the world, NFL, NBA, nothing else

02:05exists to them.

02:07Even those people cannot defend doing a Bracketology on November the 12th or whatever we're at

02:13right now.

02:14It is November 12th.

02:15It's ridiculous.

02:16Nonsense.

02:17It really is.

02:18Nonsense.

02:19I can't have it.

02:20And I won't have it.

02:21And I won't accept it.

02:22It's ridiculous.

02:23Anybody who's the top seed of the NCAA tournament, no date before January 1st to be allowed to

02:29do that.

02:30San Diego State, the first team out.

02:31Can you imagine?

02:32First team out.

02:33The first team out.

02:34They're already out.

02:35Play a conference game.

02:36They played anybody yet.

02:37Like, I mean, who plays some games?

02:38They play Occidental tonight.

02:39I mean, you've got to be kidding me with this stuff.
