Yeah, I dunno. I hear them every morning. Pinder will bring up advanced stats to support his stance on a player when Boomer just dismisses his take. He continually says it isn't the be all end all, but another way to look at things.

It's usually Boomer goading him on about advanced stats. In previous years, he always trashed Backlund for being nothing while Pinder would defend the play of Backlund, using advanced stats when Boomer would be continually asking "what does he do", or claiming Backlund "does nothing". Kind of like a guy who watches hockey but can't see the fine details or whole the picture on players.

I do think Boomer is a good guy, can be genuinely funny and the show is decent. Rhett is always good for a laugh or two and Pinder takes all their #### in stride. Like I said, I listen every morning commute, so they must be doing something right.
