  • Poorly produced

    This may be the most poorly produced podcast I’ve heard. All the computer noises. I lost count at a dozen. As good as the content may be it’s so distracting making this a first, and only, listen.

  • Mark Craig is wonderful

    But heavens could he use a new cohost. I’m not sure if it’s age but he can’t remember anything and when he does speak he’s usually wrong. Mark deserves better.

  • sorry, i wanted this to be good

    didn’t seek out a podcast to knock it, but these guys think the NFL is stuck in 1980 and hasn’t been evolving at an increasingly fast pace over the last 30 years. very poor understanding of positional value or how to generate wins in the modern NFL. altogether, it’s just poor commentary deliver and poorer analysis from the host. just not good :(

  • Two Guys Who Ooze True Purple

    I've been listening to Joe Johnson and Joe Oberle for several years--hence the name "Morning Joes--and they always have a unique and dare I say, oddly refreshing take on the machinations of the Minnesota Vikings. The two gents, a pair of unmatched socks, have a charming synergy, which is fueled by the neurosis of Joe Johnson, a younger man than the other. Joe the Younger articulates what many fans feel about the never-ending struggle of the Vikings to win a Super Bowl, a state-of-mind that no Vi... more
