Customer Reviews
Great show
Great show. Nothing else to say.
Almost strictly business.
Sampson is arguably in the top five sports savvy commentators ever. He’s not a professional athlete, journalist or broadcaster but… he gives the insider view of how and why sports business is “just business “ but it’s not. Good stuff.
Dear sir
I am a fan of the show. Want to just say thank you for letting yourself being the butt sometimes. But also standing up for yourself. I don’t have your money but I can relate. I appreciate you sir.
