For the wonderful and old, I listen to Pigskin Podcast and read Football Archeology. Darin and Tim feed my life long fascination with football history. And they both are really sincere people who invite you into their studies and offer you a seat. Spread the word to your friends that these guys are the real deal.
Look forward to listening to it every day.
Have to say that the discussion with Dr. Tony Collins and Timothy Brown was my FAVORITE podcast of all time!

Keep it up Darin.
