Tuesday March 14th
We're all happy to be back in the mix this week with all new shows (and we hope you're enjoying what we've got).
Monday was great with highlights from our boy "Dibs" getting married in Connecticut over the weekend. Plus we had Memphis head coach John Calipari getting our tourney juices flowing and one of our favorites, Michael Rapaport, bringing the laughs.
Tuesday's show had some serious hoops talk with CBS college hoops guru Billy Packer & Hall of Famer James Worthy (in his Best Damn debut). The adrenaline of the new shows apparently has our producer, Charlie, all fired up. Check out his latest rant....
Well, I've only done a few of these, but my popularity is growing exponentially. I have a huge fan following. By last count, tens of thousands of loyal readers have clicked onto my blogs. So, like many before me (and many after me), it's time to respond to some ACTUAL e-mails from my fans. Here we go ...
Charlie:
What's it like working on a show with three great former athletes and a nerd from Cleveland?
Bonnie
Chicago, IL
Well, Bonnie, it's a lot like having kids. Do you have kids? I don't. At least I think I don't. There was this one time after my senior prom I got worried, but I'm pretty sure I would've heard about Charlie Jr. by now. Anyway, say you have four kids. You love them all equally. Three of your kids are straight-A students, great-looking, very popular and athletic. Those kids would be Sal, Rodney and Dibs. Then there's the other child you have. He's "special." That would be Chris Rose. But you don't love him any less because of his "special needs" ... In fact, you love him in spite of it. Got it?

Mr. Producer:
Who do you like in the NCAA Tournament? I need help filling out my brackets.
Kenneth
Helena, MT
Good question, Ken. Somewhere I read you can IMMEDIATELY eliminate any mulit-directional school (see ya Northwestern St.), any school that uses a hyphen (UNC-Wilmington and UW-Milwaukee) and any school that says they're a state but they're really not a state (Murray State, Wichita State, Kent State, San Diego State).
Stick with the No. 1 seeds this year. I predict it will be first time in Tournament history that all No. 1 seeds make it into the Final Four. Mark my words.
Charlie:
I want to be in television. I am young, I am hot, and I am very willing to learn. What can I do? I love your show!
Katie
San Diego, CA
P.S. Are YOU cute? Let's start with the most important question, Katie. On a scale of 1-to-10, I'm a legitimate 8. So "cute" isn't the proper adjective. I'd go with "smokin' hot." Think Keanu Reeves mixed with Brad Pitt, add a little Alton from MTV's "The Gauntlet 2" and you have me. Send me your resume (and some headshots).
That's all the time I have folks. Until Thursday ...
Peace, and I'm out.
Charlie, obviously on fire. Thanks buddy. If you've got a comment for Charlie or anyone else on the show, you can comment here on the blog or send us an e-mail to bestdamn@foxsports.net.
Thursday's show brings WWE Champ John Cena back in the house. He's always a great guest and you won't want to miss it. Got us thinking about the great wrestling superstars we've had on the show.. Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, The Rock, Macho Man Savage, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Vince McMahon, and of course Stacy Keibler.
