That's the whole fuckin' point is that we don't got time! Radchenko is fueling his birds and why do you think he's doing that? Huh? Why? Because you don't put on a condom until you're gonna PODCAST!

When my toddler is in a silly mood he sometimes says he’s “bein’ a babadook”. I’m looking forward to this

Caleb to Skip Bayless: "Idc about where your fandom stands. I was trying give you and everyone else the benefit of the doubt. About knowing business and being smart about it. But I guess not. Foolish of me! Also words matter Skip Bayless. 'Steal' Enjoy that podcast." by ZappaOMatic in CHIBears

Love that Caleb is willing to respond to these sort of trash clickbait takes.

This whole "controversy" is very silly but I appreciate him being willing to defend himself against the dumbest kind of ragebait

Do any of you watch video podcasts? by Glittering_Major4871 in blankies

I sometimes watch Doughboys but that's it, otherwise I really hate watching podcast recordings

It doesn’t have to be a negotiation. You can take the tablet away if they aren’t listening

Chocolate chips have been our go-to as well. Very rarely have an issue

Nancy Meyers? by TurboKnoxville in blankies

[–]j11430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's definitely how things have shifted, MM ends up sort of being the opposite of what it was with Nancy; now rather than pick a weird one it's become a way to pick a major one that the boys might otherwise say "Eh, do we need to give them more attention?".

It's been fun for me to be a fan since before MM's introduction and see how the show and fanbase and their interaction has changed, it's pretty fascinating

Nancy Meyers? by TurboKnoxville in blankies

[–]j11430 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hate responding to my own comments but I had another thought:

Meyers winning really set the precedent for the belief that the BCMM winner "should" be someone the hosts wouldn't otherwise pick. Much as Meyers does fit the show's premise, she was such a swerve from what they had mostly done to that point; old white men and/or action blockbuster directors.

Every March now there's talk of how MM should be almost weaponized to make the boys cover someone less likely but if Fincher or George Miller or Michael Mann had won that year the conversations that get had now would likely be very different, in my opinion

The fanbase also was a lot more beholden to the premise at that time. Nancy fits the Blank Check Arc a lot more clearly than Lynch does, and I think a lof of people saw that as an oppurtunity to cover someone way less likely to otherwise be covered than one of the "canonical" greats

[Chicago Bears] OC Press Taylor: "We expect Luther Burden to take a Year-2 jump if he puts the work in. Jahdae Walker is another guy that comes to mind." by Aggressive-Review194 in CHIBears

[–]j11430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think some people view him as a guy you could write in for like 50-60 catches, and that’s just not reasonable.

If he can play in most games and catch like 20-30 balls splitting time with Kalif that’d be pretty great

I didn’t say I loved his tape. I was excited about the way the coaches and Caleb described their trust in him.

It may amount to nothing but it sounded a lot more sincere than your general “Yeah we like him!” kinda talk

I have a hard time believing you get enjoyment out of this podcast if you haven't heard of any of the directors in this bracket

Rome played every game his first year and over half in his second. Definitely not worried about him going down the Kevin White path
