“Frankly, [their run] has been the most remarkable NCAA tournament run in the tournament’s history. – Jay Bilas on MSNBC’s Morning Joe in regards to VCU.

Oh, you crack me up, Jay.

Major League baseball has chosen Mike O’Hara as the winner of its “Dream Job” contest. As his prize, O’Hara will live the entire 2011 baseball season in the “MLB Fan Cave,” a tricked out apartment in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, where he and his “wing man” Ryan Wagner will watch all 2,430 regular season baseball games, as well as every postseason game.

Parties, visits from baseball players and celebrities and regular appearances on MLB Network are also part of the gig. Tough life, eh?

As part of the promotion, Endemol USA will produce a daily web series, viewable at MLB.com and MLBFanCave,com, which will follow O’Hara and Wagner’s daily exploits.

And yes, if you are curious, gawkers can watch the duo watch the games by visiting the Fan Cave at 4th and Broadway in NYC. They can also get haircuts and tattoos (!!) by appointment inside the salon located in the Fan Cave.

Much, much more in MLB’s announcement after the jump.
