Customer Reviews
#1
This is the #1 Spurs Podcast on Itunes! In depth analysis with all news dealing with the San Antonio Spurs.
Terrible
Boring, boring, boring. These guys bring nothing to the table. The blog is great but this is not for them. Host is arrogant and tries way to hard. Spurs "analysis" is lacking. Epic fail.
Awesome
My brother turned me on to these guys. They do a great job.
