Tough to talk about a sport you both know absolutely nothing about
Tim, how can you spend so much time on Twitter blasts people who defended owners for not putting in grass for the nfl fields but can’t be moved to mention how lacob and Greg Johnson have been disasters the last 5 years plus, esp Greg Johnson? Is it because they grant you interviews? Because every giants problem is linked to him but you can’t even type his name,
Spent 5 minutes on giants before going ot the dodgers. Tim, stop pretending you cover the giants, your o[inions show very little watching and knowledge. Missing how hockey has been doing this large contract trade and dismissing it shows lack of care. Wake up. I think this might be the last time I listen to north south, it’s really south plus 49ers
Tim is a petty tyrant who blocks folks from accessing his work on social media for benign milquetoast takes on his work. His attitude carries over in to the content he puts out on this podcast for example Tim shared folks at the 49ers remarking he hasn’t been at the facility. There’s no need to be humble in this business but there is a need to be self aware and that lack of self awareness coupled with unearned smugness is a real turn off, except for when the amazingly nice and self aware Barrows... more
Tim needs to stop saying devers was a lot of money. He would be the 5th highest for dodgers and maybe top 20? Plus they gave up hicks. The giants owner payroll has been out of the top 10 for 9 of 10 years. Stop pretending you don’t mind saying how it is, when you don’t. Not critical of lacob, not critical of Greg Johnson. Like a Elon boy, sucking up to owners.
