  • Trash

    They only talk about the same 4 or 5 teams instead of teams actually winning. Seahawks played Monday night and the talk about the dolphins

  • Not worth the listen

    Acho and Shady have been fired from every network, and now they have a terrible podcast. Enough said!

  • I hope they continue the show

    I always hated skip and I love it when he is not on the pod this is a great show overall I think it’s funny when the eagles lose and big 25 starts losing his mind. I hope the eagles do well but it’s funny when they lose. Stop just skipping over that the ravens had are best defensive game only allowing 17 points (We had way to may injuries). This show is a must watch and listen. Five stars for sure. The ravens are still going to make the playoffs.
