  • Great! Ads aren’t great!

    Love listening to Kevin break things down in a humorous and insightful manner. But woof, the ads are rough. Some episodes feel like more advertising content than actual football talk.

  • Please stop pretending you know football

    This podcast is extremely cringy. Like yikes. Stop pretending you’re a football guy. You’re a journalist. So awkward.

  • Proof of Concept

    Good show, but if I hear the phrase “proof of concept” one more time, I’m gonna lose it. This is football, not venture capital.
