HBO's "Last Week Tonight" Segment on NCAA, UNC, Dabo, Paying Athletes
For those unaware, the show started about a year ago on HBO. It's a Daily Show/Colbert Report type of show. Last night John Oliver (host) did his main segment on the NCAA, March Madness, amateurism, Mark Emmert, Ed O'Bannon, sponsorships ad money, and the quality of education provided (UNC's scandal discussed), among other things. He also mocks Dabo Swinney, saying his nanme is an anagram for Soybean Wind (#soybeanwind).

It's a 21-minute video. There's nothing really new here. But an interesting watch nonethless.
