Charles Barkley deserves a lot of credit. 👊 Originally picked Florida to beat Auburn. Switched it up to AU on Saturday because, duh, it's his alma mater. Took the L like a man and gave the #Gators tons of credit all broadcast (and all NCAA Tournament).

#Knicks about to fall to 0-8 this season against the three best teams in the NBA. Smh.

What tariffs did during the Great Depression was such basic knowledge that it was covered in 40 seconds during Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

🚨Road to #WWE #WrestleMania 41 ignites: John Cena, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, Seth Rollins deliver ... but a few issues remain. @adamsilverstein.bsky.social, @chrisvannini.com cover: 👀GUNTHER v. Jey Uso levels up 🤏Rhea closer to Bianca, IYO ➕Naomi, Liv, Fenix, more 🎧 linktr.ee/gettingover

Johni Broome 🤝 Paul Pearce 🙄

Tennessee's 15 first-half points today ... - Fewest by a top 2 seed in any NCAA Tournament 1H - Fewest by any seed in an Elite Eight 1H - T-Fewest by any seed in any Elite Eight half #MarchMadness

Tennessee's 15 first-half points are the fewest by a top 2 seed in any NCAA Tournament game -- ever. #MarchMadness

That's a stellar BLOB play by Houston. Classic give-and-go.

Unless you’re like LeBron, Nash, Magic, Kidd or a finite other few, you should not be doing a behind-the-back bounce pass into a crowded lane in what is effectively a playoff game. What was that Auburn kid thinking?

I'm not sure what would happen if Kevin Harlan and Bill Raftery were on the same broadcast team, but I need it. Badly.

Oof Michigan State ATS bettors. Worthless buzzer-beating 3 kills the cover.

Kevin Harlan 🐐

Duke is a problem. 🫤

🚨Road to #WWE #WrestleMania 41 remains sluggish as Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk is set with John Cena laying out his agenda to Cody Rhodes. @adamsilverstein.bsky.social @chrisvannini.com cover: 🤔Convoluted creative in Europe 🔥Owens-Orton, Jade-Naomi ➕Much more! 🎧: t.co/LOpZtS4gmt

That JuJu Watkins injury is gnarly and devastating. Damn.

Do you guys think it's more nerve wracking to try and win a major championship yourself ... or watch a couple other dudes compete for one in a small arena? #TGL

Arizona-Oregon has officially entered throwback #Pac12AfterDark territory.

7 SEC teams are going to make the Sweet 16, most for a single conference in NCAA Tournament history. But, omigosh, Mizzou lost. 🙄 #MarchMadness

Chuck: “Didn’t your parents tell you not to talk while eating.” Kenny: “Then you’d never talk.” 😂

Incredible shot. (Did Derik Queen travel?! 😬) #MarchMadness

Big facts.

Despite the SEC failure narrative stuff you were fed after Round 1, THIS Texas A&M loss is the first one that is actually surprising / matters to that end. Woof.

Mr. Milchick x Kendrick Lamar Perfection achieved. #Severance

Some words on Big George Foreman, who died today at age 76: www.cbssports.com/boxing/news/...

It's almost like UNC didn't deserve to be in #MarchMadness and only got a bid because of "metrics," brand and ... well, the other thing.

Cold Harbour is one of the best episodes of TV I've ever watched. Top 10 easily. Maybe top 5. Insanely great season finale for #Severance.

Just started watching the #Severance finale. Figured it would be 50 minutes. Oops. Fml.

Could Michigan MISS any more free throws?

How could you not like the Drake?

Preseason No. 1 teams that failed to win an NCAA Tournament game (since expansion in 1984-85): - 2005 Kansas - 2023 North Carolina - 2025 Kansas

Hunter Dickinson in the second half: 0 points (0/4 FG, 0/2 3PT, 3 fouls, 2 turnovers Kansas: 6 turnovers final 4:14 Yikes.

Feel like y'all haven't watched Auburn basketball the last two weeks ...

Won't be making public #MarchMadness picks until next week as per usual, but what I've found to be the best way to handle the first two rounds is by utilizing live lines. Xavier last night being a great example.

Xavier: Well-coached team. Texas: Not.

This dub of Bruce Willis / John McClane on FX must be the worst in movie-on-TV history. It was literally jarring.

🚨 #WWE begins European sojourn as Cody Rhodes, heel John Cena finally go face-to-face. @adamsilverstein.bsky.social, @chrisvannini.com cover: 🎤 Cena turns on fans, Cody drops mic 🙄 Reigns vs. Rollins vs. Punk goes nowhere 🚧 Jey, Charlotte #WrestleMania speed bumps? 🎧: linktr.ee/gettingover

Just picked up McDonald’s breakfast for the first time in, I dunno, maybe 10 years. Am I crazy or didn’t you used to get two hashbrowns for $1? Now it’s one for $2? Never again.

#MarchMadness opens with a HAIL MARY -- Alabama State wins its first NCAA Tournament game with 1 second remaining! Can't script it. 👀👀👀👀

As a #Knicks fan, evisterating that franchise by 21 in MSG is all I can ask to see.

Excited to welcome @rkalland.bsky.social back to the @cbssports.bsky.social team. We had a dearth of mascot, food challenge and Atlanta rap content that badly needed to be filled. Oh, plus golf and NBA and all that good stuff.

Rory McIlroy in a playoff on St. Patrick’s Day at a non-major … against J.J. Spaun … might have been the easiest call of all-time. #ThePlayers

What an emotional tribute to Greg Gumbel. Love that.

Knicks way too sloppy late. And KAT allowed that clown to son him right at the end of the game. Tough L to eat.
