  • Great Podcast

    Just came across this on YouTube so had to listen. I enjoy other favorites but this is very good because it brings the Ochocinco perspective.

    Keep it going this is so awesome to see your understanding appli... more

  • Blind leading the blind.

    Man this show sucks. You bring on guests that have no idea about football. Ask dumb questions answer them with even dumber answers. Lamal is the best young prospect we’ve ever seen. Better than a young mbappe….WOAH WOAH WOAH. WHY DID YOU JUST SAY LAMAL WAS THEN……
