Interesting and Brief

Joe’s staccato delivery fits the subject and format nicely. Check out Total Soccer Pod where Joe is a presenter, and “Backheeled” web magazine. I appreciate the content in those also: very entertaining.

Salary caps in sports are put in place to ensure profits for owners. Parity is not the intention of salary caps.

The best

Joe is one of the best out there. I love his takes, his breakdown of tactics, and his overall knowledge. Highly recommend!
