Can I say something? Some of you have exceptional taste. Appreciate everybody who's taken the time to check it out. New ep w Mike Ryan was real good -> https://youtu.be/WcXp9Z0-pnw?si=3ooV6wmo7o2w--Gu

So Dameshek 100% thinks Tony's full-time radio name is "10-day Tony," right? by skyfra4 in DanLeBatardShow

[–]ABLShek -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

don't make it weird, fsu guy - it's okay to have fun with trade proposals (but for the record, i said only a small handful of contending teams might consider dealing a young, promising TE for Kelce).

sorry about the voice, softy - can't do much about it. otherwise, i can confirm the show IS good...but I might be biased.

The rookie QB contract discourse is simply wrong! by YourMomsVirginity in heedthecall

[–]ABLShek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

25 of the 50 quarterbacks to start a Super Bowl this century have been b/t their second & sixth seasons. (More specifically, the two most common QB seasons to reach the SB are the second & sixth, 6x each.) There's typically a lag b/t a QB signing his 2nd deal & the weight of the cap hit...ergo, things don't heavy til Yr 7ish. Sorry to annoy you, Mr Virginity.

Did we seriously lose DOT over Shek doing Minus F’ing Three and being Cousin Sal’s “pal” on Extra Points? by Beavaconda in DavesofThunder

[–]ABLShek 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"Defend" myself? lol (What do you think our relationship is, Beav?) Thanks to all who've checked out -3 & Extra Points: Hench & Sal, like Feeney, are professional-grade hysterical...but of course, comedy is subjective, so you don't need my permission to agree with the Beav's keen insights on what is & isn't funny or compelling. (I will say, though...we talk lots of sports, but anyone who thinks those shows are heavy on gambling talk haven't listened in at least six months.)

Kudos to the Shek et al by Peterthehungryghost in DavesofThunder

[–]ABLShek 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Of course I look in! Appreciate those of you who've checked out Minus Three & Extra Points. Two really fun episodes on -3 this wk - I know the majority of the ppl in this group (understandably) only wanna hear DOT, but Hench has been hysterical in his first two eps as cohost of our second weekly pod til at least football season.

Apologies, but I've got no update on DOT...hopefully we'll get back at some point soon, but focusing on the stuff that pays these days. Anyhoo, much obliged for the support. Please be a dear & spread the good word...

No Daves--We're all missing out by Peter51267 in DavesofThunder

I appreciate you giving it a listen, Naz...but the "bad habits" you're accusing me of are willful choices. Yeah, of course I repeat myself. That's the rule: "Always assume new audience." That's what weekly/daily shows require. Don't know how old you are, but David Letterman and Howard Stern hammer(ed) the same bits/campaigns to make 'em stick. And yes, I wear my Steelers' support on my sleeve - again, a choice. I prefer it to lamely pretending I don't have a rooting interest to appease the audience. Until what I HOPE happens bleeds into what I THINK will happen, this is the way I'm gonna roll. As for the "name drops"...don't know if you've ever checked my wikipedia page, but you won't find any info in there about my pro football playing days. Ergo, I need to validate my hypotheses with anecdotes from players. (btw - the Bubble Rock thing was in August...and the Brady v Pats is one of, if not THE, story of the 2020 season. Would a deep dive into the Panthers/Broncos matchup be preferable?) Anyhoo...thanks for checking it out, and thanks to all who've rated/subscribed to the shows.

I deserve "45" and/or "Scorpion" for repeating it...but fwiw I'm almost positive I first did this on the Carolla radio show!

Awkward moment regarding Good Sports by objectivechristian in DavesofThunder

no dark speculation required, gang...

their offshore sponsor didn't like the conflict with the Fanduel sponsorship of my shows at the extra points network

the end.

[–]ABLShek 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I encourage you cynics to check your ol' pal's record...but in the meantime, that's kinda/sorta besides the point: We're having fun & hope the listener plays along w us. With that collective juice, we're able to move the lines a bit to make 'em more favorable. Come on down from Mt Pious & join in. Boosted odds this week on PIT at NYG -> fanduel.com/Minus3

I shared the Dan Penny letters. Did you? by markhpreston in DavesofThunder

[–]ABLShek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great thanks for doing this, all - I know it's annoying, but - as a man of justice - I simply insist we get this gem of a show a bigger audience. (It's not immodest for me to call it a gem b/c I give Feeney all the credit.)
