Tim bontemps seems like a sixers apologist
Great pod. Bad network

Sep 27

Chris chocago

These guys are good so I’m sure this podcast will end soon. Can’t even here the song for banned McMahon. Disney and espn is a joke. Ruined Star Wars. Got rid of all the talent besides these 3 guys, kipper, Wilson, and Tony. Those guys are 80. This podcast will be the only espn related content I’ll subscribe too besides some live games. No woj, Russell, bill, mcshay, tarnished and fired max. Zach Lowe is the man. Around the horn is trash. Watching woody Paige is all they got. Look at how these writers dress. You boys better practice talking ridiculously and becoming characters or you’ll be talking about hoops while your sweeping a broom. 24 billion dollars and Zach makes 1 mil. What a joke. Somebody start a serious sports network
Decent show-guests personality brings show done

It’s a decent show, potential to be good and sort of scratches the itch now that the Lowe Post is gone. I believe it’s Tim Bontemps but one of the frequent guests (the one who has the most echo in his microphone) constantly interrupts and comes in with an aggressive/combative tone which makes this show harder to listen
