  • Amateur Hour - Listen to somethingelse

    Seems like a nice guy, but has amateur level sports intellect. Donโ€™t spend your time listening if what youโ€™re looking for is educated and knowledgeable sports takes.

    Repeats the same things over and over. Limited vocabulary gets old and annoying very quickly. โ€œNo doubt about itโ€, โ€œthe absolute bestโ€ - ugh. My skin curls just hearing that repeated constantly. Read a book and develop some vocab. Work on your craft like itโ€™s important to you. Do something.
