  • The Spectre of Tifo Football Podcast

    This is among my favorite podcasts, with the perfect balance of humor and analysis. I write this review today, though, to lay down a challenge. I’d like a Ring For Analysis of whatever length necessary where you go through the entire book, not just intro. Then, do it again where Joe reads and Jon rings to analyze the reading. It will be about 40 hours and I would blissfully preorder the audio book.

  • Regardless, it’s still one of my favorites.

    You might infer that the following comment means that I don’t like the program nor the host. Nothing could be further from the truth it’s just that I wish I had ever been as pleased with anything as Joe is consistently pleased with himself.
