  • Lighten up Dave

    Really good info and insight you have ....but on more than one occasion every night you are condescending and rude. Yes this is a sports pod cast with input from want to be GM's and dudes who think they could've made it. That's the audience, deal with it, you want high value production and takes...go host somewhere else.

  • Off Your Game

    Dave I’m glad you feel better but you’re still off your game. You’re making a fool of yourself with your negativity and inane comments. You have got to buck up!

  • Sick House

    David it’s tough you were sick but you made some stupid comments which make me wonder whether you’re really watching the game or napping due to illness. I’ll take a break and try you in two weeks to see if you’ve pulled your head out.
