  • Get rid of Billy Gil

    Terrible product when Gil is on. Unlistenable. Sheil made his bones with analysis, based on observation and stats. No more Gil.

  • Five stars for Sheil, minus one for Billy Gil

    Love the podcast when it's Sheil or Sheil with any guest other than Billy Gil. He's barely informed and could care less about staying on topic. I guess he's supposed to be funny – we'll disagree
