  • Do Better

    This show fell off worse than the Guards’ offensive production. These guys previously provided actual insight but it’s devolved into repackaging the shrieking and whining you can very easily find elsewhere online. The current product is as informative as a drive time show on ESPN 850, except somehow less entertaining and enjoyable.
