Michigan-Tulsa Review, March Madness Updates, St. Patrick's Day, Detroit Pistons, Alex Sims, and 2 Minutes For Ruffing.

  On today' s "Current Sports with Al Martin" we mix up a cocktail of St. Patrick's Day and March Madness, diving into the excitement of this time of year. Also, Michigan's comeback against Tulsa provoked questions of just what John Beilein did right with this roster despite missing two of his key contributors. But should Michigan have been in the tournament in the first place? Then, Alex Sims, sports reporter at WLNS TV-6, is in the studio to talk about her journey to Lansing, with plenty of sports mixed in too, of course.  Afterwards, breaking away from basketball, "Two Minutes For Ruffing" places hockey right into the heart of the madness with production assistant Jason Ruff.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
