    The Naked Gun predicted this ridiculousness some 35 years ago. Offers no value, just noise.

    Good lord. Enberg, Mel Allen, Dicky V, Tim McCarver, Jim Palmer, and Curt Gowdy.  What a callback.


    After the NBA on TNT, the best pre- and post-game show is the CBS Champions League crew.  Kate Abdo, Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards.  They’re awesome.  They’re copying TNT and it works.  They have fun but they know their shit when they need to.  Those are the only two worth watching.  (And Kate is so fine)

    How’d Sirois go scorched earth?

    this is Danny (on Rhyner's podcast) and Sirois (on Gordo's Twitch stream) bitching about the Ticket and Junior.

    Paying appearance fees is prohibited by the PGA. 

    yep.  but i'm sure he was compensated through the PIP or equity payment he's about to get.  somehow, some way, Rory was given a little financial kiss to play New Orleans.  just too convenient that now Rory decides to play the team event when there aren't any of the real big names there.

    and the whole broadcast, everybody was so effusive about how awesome New Orleans has been, how the hospitality is second to none, how Rory got a standing O at dinner last night.  they do want to try and pump some blood into this event.

    this tourney could be really good if they could get the high profile guys there.  Jordan/JT, Scottie/Sam Burns, Hovland/Aberg, Rose/Fleetwood, Homa/Fowler, etc.

    He should go on Red Scare and/or Cum Town

    Chapo Trap House.

    people can shit talk Howard all they want, doesn't change the fact that he is one of the best interviewers in the game.  he's been doing long-form interviews before podcasts were a thing.  he switched gears when he went to satellite radio and didn't have to abide by program director's wishes and endless commercial breaks. so he's had big time superstars and talked them for an hour or more.  you just couldn't do that on mainstream TV or radio.  but he could on SiriusXM.  and now people can do it on podcasts.  

    this was a monster get and it's getting a lot of good traction for Biden (and Howard) on social media.  credit to Baba Booey for booking POTUS.

    Well, there's a lot more than young folks that need to get out and vote...or stay home and vote, as it were. 

    yep.  tons of Stern fans in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin. if Biden can get some of the vote from the "no college" crowd that listens to Stern, that would be big.

    what's gonna be interesting is to see how Trump responds to this.  Stern fans love Stern.  and if Trump goes on his typical "Howard is a loser who had terrible ratings until I agreed to go on his show after he begged me for years" rant, he could alienate some folks.

    the Stern cult is just as devoted as the Trump cult.

  6. this is kinda big.  Howard is the best interviewer in the game.  i expect Trump to rip into Howard and call him a has been who only made it big because Trump appeared on his show.  "He begged me like a dog to come on.  He'd be nothing without me."
