We have much to discuss on the NCAA Tournament for the Men and the Women, what's really going on with new Dodgers phenom Shohei Otani and the gambling controversy and get insight from a couple of stellar guests on the newest "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast."

Host T.J. Rives is back and is joined first by Ken Fang of AwfulAnnouncing.com and Mike DeCourcy of the Sporting News and the Big Ten Network to break it all down.

T.J. and Ken talk the March Madness games and announce teams, including Ian Eagle plugging in with Bill Raftery and Grant Hill on CBS' main coverage. Plus, they talk Ken's next favorite crew from CBS/Turner tourney coverage and the women's tourney heating up on Monday nigh with a great triple header from UConn to Iowa to USC.

The guys also talk the Dodger star Ohtani's gambling controversy problems and how hard will the L.A. local media and national pundits push and dig for more info or actual "truth" on the story/scandal, when it could anger the player, the Dodgers and maybe cut off their access to him? Plus, Ken has thoughts on the NFL and Christmas games/broadcasts, too.

Then, T.J. has great conersation with USBWA Hall of Fame writer Mike Decourcy of the Sporting News on the Men's tourney- should it expand and where's the real reason to do so? They also discuss the "Sweet 16" later this week and what's up with John Calipari at Kentucky's situation, too.

It's all on the newest "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast" and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple, Spreaker, Spotfy, etc.!
