  • Great Info

    At this point, it should be well known that I’m a sucker for any podcast that invokes Kevin Youkilis’ name to describe anyone that walks a lot, but putting that aside I’m still a big fan of this show. Great info, easy to listen to, big fan.

  • info you usually do not follow closely enough

    Brent and Chris share information of prospects that they have personally watched, and I have found that information can save you mistakes from spending capital on players hyped but really not ready for the show, and very good reasoning for that analysis.

    And along the way, I am sure we will nail some prospects early enough to be ahead of most of your league opponents.

    A nice addition to bbhq.

  • I’m gonna be real honest

    I haven’t even listened to an episode yet but I’ve following Blessing and Brent’s work for years and am always finding myself picking up what they’re putting down.

    Incredibly pumped to listen and see how far they can take this show. 🔥
