About this episode
Sean Baligian dives into why the opening days of the NCAA Tournament are undeniably the best sports-watching days of the year—perfect for bracket lovers and casual fans alike. From playfully claiming deep insight after picking McNeese State's upset (spoiler: he didn't), to recounting Michigan's wild weather shifts and surprise visits for Michigan High School Hockey Player of the Year trophies, Sean covers it all. Plus, he reflects on classic sports viewing days, including January 1st's glory days, the uniqueness of weekday tournament action, and why he'll never make it to Vegas with his friends. It's sports nostalgia, bracketology bragging rights, and Michigan charm all rolled into one.
