A good show but it gets ruined every time James Merilatt comes on
why are the recent episodes all messed up seems like the cuts are off
Schlereth is sports media trash! He says the rudest things that he can come up with anytime he doesn’t like an athlete’s performances or decisions. It’s one thing to give someone fair criticism, but it’s another thing all together to go out of your way to be extremely rude about someone. He fits right in with Colin CowTERD (who sadly used to have his radio show based in my hometown right before he went national). No wonder Mark ShitBreath is a regular guest on Colin CowTerd’s show!
John Fox had the luxury of Payton Manning calling signals and basically guiding the offense. That is no longer the case. I'm cool with Munchak, though.
