Rich is wrong on just about everything today
lol dei hire Jayden Huh? Cent throw accurately more than 10 yards downfield especially if a defender is within 5 yards
one day this arrogance moron will realize that we come in to listen to these shows because we want to hear National topic all this guy does is constantly cry about teams that he likes that don't do well or talk shit about teams that his teams don't like. it's getting really kind of amateurish how old are you five?
when are these media fuckers going to finally call out these NCAA and SEC criminals LOL I mean Alabama played a great schedule? who the sec? the SEC is an overrated collection of garbage after year after year after year. they rarely have any more than two teams that can beat the quality team's outside the conference every year since the 90s and we always magically ignore that fact lol Alabama had a great resume LOL sure it did who did Vanderbilt lose to again this year LOL
rich you're missing the reality that all the things the running backs do which should require "thanks" according to you, are paying for past performance not investing in future upside which is what good GMs do. And, getting from the 10 to the 3 or decoying etc (eckler) or taking pressure off the qb, etc can be done just as effectively with a fresh 24 year old. so your heart is in the right place but as you know, it's bad business to sign any RB to a long term deal. PS I love Saquon.
what is this bs radio show playing in the background?
great interview
howie mandel is criminally unfunny
these guys SUCK!!! RICH WE MISS YOU
