After a much-needed break to gather our wits, the cast at Three-Point Range is back with more thought-provoking discussion. The Professor makes a bold prediction about the future of horse racing. The Scout endorses a recent rule change that might make miracle comebacks harder to pull off in high school basketball. And the Beat Writer offers a surprising choice for which golf announcer, past or present, he would like to have narrate his life.

In our never-ending quest to fix sports, Tim cautions against premature elimination; Kimball vigorously hand-checks those who would outlaw the charging foul; and Mike examines the knee-jerk reactions that flowed from Max Scherzer's messy ejection.

As the last echoes of March Madness fade out, the Professor ponders the making a basketball blueblood in the Nutmeg State; the Scout has some thoughts on the Hurley coaching dynasty; and Mike sets out a frontloaded viewer's guide to The Masters.

Take it from three veterans of the bracket racket: Come March Madness, it's best to keep those nagging voices and visions from influencing your NCAA Tournament picks.

This week the professor examines the perilous present in the UNC-Duke college basketball rivalry; the scout has his doubts about how Kyrie Irving will fit in with the Dallas Mavericks; and the journalist breaks down the developing drama in the Super Bowl broadcast booth.
