c8x h
New joyzzzeee??? is it ???
great stuff
the best NFL podcast
Thank you for not having some stupid chick on your pod....like all others seem compelled to do.
great show...
man I've missed simms a lot
So glad to hear you guys again.
the more you explain why you're not a brady hater, the more you sound like a brady hater. it's gotten old. I made it 6 minutes and 43 seconds and couldn't listen anymore. I'm a Chiefs fan btw.
simms I looked your pod cast wasn't like a damn infomercial ,now I got all these adds
Take everything your dad says about not listening to outside voices, about not just listening to "phrases" and not letting that alter your views or beliefs on a player. Take all of that and apply it to your beliefs on racial discrimination. Is it possible you're being misled, or steered in another direction you wouldn't be otherwise by platitudes and phrases CONSTANTLY repeated at nauseam???
the man
Simms is a rising star. loved his quarterback rankings of guys better than Blake Bortles on Lebatard last year. My new favorite podcast!
