Show Notes

This is March. Zac completed his 36 hour stream, we talk a big College Basketball Saturday slate and we're 2 weeks from brackets. Clean up from the NFL combine and other national sports podcast talk (00:00:00-00:45:40). Who's back of the week including a completely meaningless Sixers/Celtics game that has Max and Hank going to war (00:45:40-00:59:50). Seattle Seahawks Head Coach Mike Macdonald joins the show to talk about winning the Super Bowl, his path in coaching, message to his team next year to try and repeat, when he knew Sam Darnold was the guy, and tons more (00:59:50-01:49:16). We finish the show talking about our 10 year anniversary and some funny memories and gratitude for the best job ever (01:49:16-02:20:42).
