  • I cannot listen to this… Randall McDaniel is in the HOF

    Emily, if you are going to cover an NFL team it’s probably beneficial to at least know by name their recent HOF players.

    Pretty sure he was an all 1990-2000’s LG in the NFL

    You start laughing at his name having obviously NO clue whom he is

    I’m out….
