I don't mind it. He obviously knows what he's talking about.

I don't really mind, although I'd like him to stop repeating what he said earlier to interrupt the game by saying the same thing over again.

It's getting close to March, so this is Lunardi's time to shine.

I guess in retrospect, I don't really get the value of Lunardi. His position is secured because he picks the best bracket heading into Selection Sunday, but really it's all but set by then anyway. He basically proves his worth by picking the last couple teams to get in, correctly. That's really not a big deal to me.

he obviously knows what he is talking about but keep him to before the game, halftime, and between games. no need for him during the game. he also bothered me a few yrs ago when he suddenly threw 2 teams in his last 4 in out of nowhere the day the brackets were released. both ended up in the tourney.

I don't mind. But he really needs to ditch the wig though. That thing looks like its a brick on his head.

Last week I was indifferent, but this week I'm sick to death of him. And I spent the first half of the day watching UNC/Miami and UK/Ark on CBS. He's so damn annoying, and no I don't think he's particularly good at his job.

He has no discernible skills. I'm reasonably confident that most of the regulars that post here (say for example everyone that participated and qualified in the weekly pick'em) could do the exact same thing he does, they had the same amount of time and resources to dedicate to it.

That asshole is probably pulling down a six figure paycheck to guess shit.

We know a week before the tournament starts with 100% certainty what the bracket is going to look like. It's not like he's guessing the outcomes of games. Just who's going to be matched up. It would be like if they hired Bill Walton to start guessing in August what the Pac 12 conference schedule is going to be. I'd rather just wait to find out than listen to some twat speculate.

I appreciate the work that our resident bracket guys do though. I can look at their stuff at my leisure. It isn't forced upon me.

Joe Lunardi's hair could survive an F4 tornado and look exactly the same.

Not really, but I see why he spends all of his time locked behind a computer. Dude has no face for tv.
