  • Good but Biased

    Birm and Ward are as connected as they come on the OSU beat but if you’re looking for in-depth X’s and O’s analysis or anything resembling an unbiased opinion I would look elsewhere. This pod needs Landis back to bring them back to reality.

    Can we change Freaky Friday to “No Filter Friday”? I’m retired now, but I was known for No Filter Friday, Sassy Saturday, and Saucey Sunday.

  • Following recruiting is crazy

    I can’t believe I care enough about where huge 17 and 18 year olds are going to go to college. But I ashamed to say I do. And I am equally embarrassed to say I have missed Birm and I guess Austin to, but I have. They are the BEST. Thank God you’re back. Go Bucks.
