  • Amateur Hour - Listen to somethingelse

    Seems like a nice guy, but has amateur level sports intellect. Don’t spend your time listening if what you’re looking for is educated and knowledgeable sports takes.

    Repeats the same things over and over. Limited vocabulary gets old and annoying very quickly. “No doubt about it”, “the absolute best” - ugh. My skin curls just hearing that repeated constantly. Read a book and develop some vocab. Work on your craft like it’s important to you. Do something.

Full Show: NCAA Tournament Preview + Colts Offseason Breakdown with Gregg Rosenthal!
Q: What is the biggest concern about the Colts' offseason moves so far?
Rosenthal explains that while the Colts kept continuity and re-signed core players, they still face questions about free agency decisions, cap space, and whether the additions at edge rusher and wide receiver will be enough to return to a competitive level without a clear upgrade at certain positions.
Best Of JMV 3-18-26
Q: How do you see the Colts' offseason affecting their chances this year?
Rosenthal explains that the offseason financially constrained the Colts, making it difficult to improve everywhere, but they've kept core pieces and built around Daniel Jones' health and Alec Pierce while hoping for a big draft haul to bridge the gap.
