I enjoyed this episode. I usually enjoy AI episodes but this one was interesting.
Rivas is one of the worst Lakers podcasters out there! Condescending prick!
where are the uploads
OMG! Rivas is AWFUL! Lakers are 6th in the West? Dude, you don't know hoops!
wow I wasn't aware he could leave next year. you guys better hope that doesnt happen. I'd have required at least a 2 year commitment sheesh.
More BS pessimism! So sick of it!
Grant Goldberg with the worst takes! What a moron!
she doesn't help the case for women in mens sports very much by ending every sentence with a question mark raise of the voice.
oh my God why does this girls voice raise at the end of every sentence as if shes asking a question out of every sentence? what's wrong with her? it's got to be one of the most annoying voices ice ever heard.
I hate that porker Irwin! POS!
