"Unfiltered opinions, witty remarks, and encyclopedic sports knowledge collide, but this is enthusiastic and accessible enough for casual sports fans to enjoy."
Score: 4.5

"Each episode is highly engaging, fast paced, and unfiltered. Bill and his cohorts do not hold back when they disagree with a ref call or a play made. If you’re a fan of sports, this podcast is a must listen."

"Cool episode but how can Bill have Don Cheadle and Rob Lowe on, talk about their careers, and not even bring up Cheadle's role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Lowe's role on Parks and Recreation? "
