Kornheiser’s radio show podcast, commercial-free, only part sports, and is really good. Hits on a variety of topics, is intellectual, and damned funny.

Anything where you can here Tyler Duffy talking to an ex NFL linebacker is gold.

OT – anybody listen to any good podcasts. Not sports related unless it’s somewhat intellectual. News is fine. General shit. Love Freakonomics podcast but that’s my only go-to right now.

All Things Considered should also be thrown into the podcast discussion.

I’ve listened to some of the podcasts from “The Moth”. It’s basically story-telling, from somewhat famous/successful writers, to random people. Can be hit or miss, but I keep a few on my ipod, just in case I get bored.

Ace was clearly the deserving winner.

Which makes me so hateful. All JT Floyd has to do is wait until after the bowl game to get as high as he wants and that becomes so much less of an issue. Not sure if him being suspended or Demens getting hurt killed the pass defense more. Demens was by far the best LB all year at dropping into coverage down the seam.

There is a sign somewhere in East Texas on I-20 that says El Paso – 815 miles. Or something like that.

Then that is great, but I was referring to whatever award it was that the broadcast team hands out. Not surprisingly, I stopped watching after the final play and didn’t read any ESPN recaps. Clowney was named player of the game by those idiots.

Oh, I was so drunk and excited that I didn’t even see who the ESPN guys picked. But, yea, that’s stupid. Ace was clearly the deserving winner.
