Building the Bracket with Joe Lunardi, Predictions, Drew Brees Retired, and Sal’s Son’s Safety

Cousin Sal and Dave are joined by ESPN’s Bracketologist Joe Lunardi to discuss Bracket Monday, the pressure of picking all 68 teams correctly and getting the seeding right. Dave and Sal reveal how many teams they missed – as Dave’s field of 68 is seeing double. Joe discusses how the NCAA Tournament does not determine who is the best team and he is not changing from his November pre-season pick of Baylor/Gonzaga in the National Championship.

To Sal’s frustration, Dave gives his argument for changing the NCAA tournament and the guys look at FanDuel odds for a national champion. Plus, to Dave's dismay there is a lot of orange among the teams in the Midwest region.

Drew Brees retired and the guys discuss his legacy and where the (18-1 to win the Super Bowl) Saints go from here. Plus, the latest on Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson rumors.

Dave and Sal give their Crown Royal Athletes of the Week as Dave discusses all the “What If’s” in Drew Brees’ career. Finally, Cousin Sal’s son makes a big play in the first high school football game in months.
