SoulDriver ,

Much improved podcast!

I’ve been listening all the time since Bob Cooney has become the host. Great knowledge of Philly and our sports teams! Like the great sports talk hosts of the past, Cooney earned his chops as a beat writer for the Daily News and grew up in the area. It’s great to have Philly sports talk from a knowledgeable host.

NFL draft

Enough Sixers ,cooney is like a substitute teacher,no one listens to what he says,can’t believe this guy only talks Sixers,no one cares about nba basketball

For Those Not From Philly…..

For those not from philly but are intrigued about our sports culture; well you’ve come to the right podcast. The Cuz is the peoples voice in Philadelphia sports.

There are plenty of sports commentaries that cover sports markets but don’t emulate what the true emotion and current sense/feeling of the community actually is. That ain’t the case with the Cuz. He and Choonis are the true ambassadors of the Philly fans.
