  • Very Average

    Nick Wilson isn’t for me. Dusty is good when he does show up (1/2024 appears to be going through a personal crisis so he gets a pass)

    Kudos to the producer for getting good national guests. Not sure why the guests put up with Nick.

  • Low IQ nonsense

    This channel obviously appeals to the lowest possible intelligence level of sports fans in Northern Ohio. These hosts match up pretty well with Cleveland’s sports culture - hyperbole and inferiority complexes.

  • Making the best of it

    They do a pretty good job covering the most depressing sports city in America. That’s gotta be tough at times, kudos.
