Kevin Walsh and Donnie Rightside get your week started the right way with all the news and notes you need from the weekend. First - they jump into all the NCAA tournament action from the weekend. Who looked good, and who was lucky to advance? How can they use that in the futures market for the sweet sixteen games and beyond? Then, Ed Cooley set to leave Providence for the opening at Georgetown after a very successful stint with the Friars. NBA action for the night - what are the guys best bets in the prop and sides markets? After, the MVP race is on fire with Jokic and Embiid pulling away from the pack. What can either of them do to lock it up in the home stretch? Finally - NFL free agency recap. Which teams got better and which teams got worse? All this, your calls, their bets, and more! 

An old favorite returns to the show leaving Luke and Jeff laughing over the little known "tuck-it" rule. There's serendipity in a Rutgers win...wait, what? And the boys choose tonight to drink Mike's Hard Lemonade and Leinie's Summer Shandy. They do know it's winter in Minnesota, right? Then again, this is SportsMocker and this is #MNsports. It's by the fans, for the fans. And that's about the only thing these guys seem to get right.
