  • Feel for Dallas and JayHay

    It’s a great podcast because they don’t let Jared talk about his personal life and brag about his accomplishments like the section 10 guys do. Jared constantly over valuing his role and worth showing again as he’s dropped by another sponsor. Hopefully the guys from

    Section 10 and Dallas/Jayhay can unite and make a real baseball podcast without the dead weight
