Schooling people takes forever; don't bother

@jensyao honestly a lot of the mainstream podcast i actually don’t listen to unless you count Bomani, and Andy Staples, the rest are underground like our podcast the Loic, Splitzone, and a few others because they aren’t tied down to carrying the water for inclusion

yeah, i don't have time to spend 3 hours for some random drawn out podcast

this dude does some quick film study videos while drawing concepts and scheme with that skycam footage
(his channel blew up during LSU's 2019 championship run)



this dude also draws formations overlaying game footage but these guys always transition into some type of podcast
(but has no charisma to carry the conversation forward outside of X's and O's)



these channels would be so much better if they did film study for upcoming match ups instead of past games for betting lines and O/U...just put a disclaimer that they are not financial advice, etc

Sports (with their disclosure of payment contracts, bonus incentives, transparency, and scrutiny by the fanbase during hiring and firing cycles) is the lens in which the common man can draw parallels to the upper crust of corporate america. For companies and organizations, most of it is opaque and shielded from observation unless you are an insider. People can be underqualified and have no previous ties with the program/company (like bryan harsin) and still get the job, where this favoritism, nepotism, and biased hiring/'elections' happen in corporate america all the time to impress or quell the fanbase/shareholders. These head coaches/CEOs stay mediocre and drag down the football program/company with bad decision-making for years. You as an athlete/employee have to decide whether to stay and make the best out of a situation or transfer into another school/company where you hear rumors about how you're being treated, time as student-athlete/work life balance, and other complaints. The practices/employee training can focus on implementing the wrong drills/financial spending where special teams/certain departments aren't able to kick field goals/hit quota or develop talent -- you sometimes are a plug-and-play athlete/employee based on what skills your previous coaching staff/employer taught you. The recruiting/hiring of talent sometimes does not grant scholarships/pay well for these positions to be emphasized as the game plan/company agenda. The head coach/CEO sometimes throw OC or DC/their next in line under the bus for not performing well to save himself from being fired and allocating 'change.' If a scandal is egregious enough, the athletes/employees who stay deal with much of the sanctions/repercussions during the whole regime change while the AD and president/board of directors might also get fired. Decisions for athletes/employees to become captains/promoted sometimes are not fully based on players' votes/merit and can be easily manipulated, influenced, or rigged when authority ultimately choose behind closed meetings. They also have propaganda pamphlets and meetings with team building exercises and mantras to constructively or artificially boost team morale and productivity to promote the narrative of whatever that they are working on...it's the same shyt

Basically, hosts who are skilled can talk intensely about the different aspects of professional or collegiate 'sports' but they are really talking in favor of the disgruntled worker demographic who happens to be within the proximity of the fanbase given these parallels between sports and the workforce, where one is transparent and the other is opaque, respectively. Having the ability to draw out extended metaphors in sports basically can undermine the owners, censors, and sponsors for the show to continue dabbling about sports when they are actually talking about something else entirely different that sometimes could be applicable to other aspects of life. That's why having related stories in life experience and random anecdotes from books or observations can allow people to talk about sports, music industry, or other hobbies surface level but they are really talking about other shyt indirectly that may have more direct implications than just vicariously winning the game.

These hosts don't oversell or dumb down the extended metaphor for what they are talking about. Those who can understand the parallelisms have on a smug smile and appreciate the side tangents to something useful or related. These hosts are the dying breed, along with the integrity in professional journalism and reporting in this social media rumor mill age where being first always gets the attention. Nowadays, sons grow up to just geek over random sports stats or trivia trying to impress their forefathers or carry on some random tradition or hating their rivals but not really knowing what 'talking about sports' really represented or that the word 'pastime' was only invented and popularized a century ago. Before sports was hard manual labor, indoctrination of uneducated workers with religion to make the owners feel good about their actions, or join the military to fight in wars if you could be trained, followed orders, and had athleticism; hence the tangential incorporation of conservatism, religion, and patriotism tied into sports from the historical past. Sports, in this transitional period of inventions for more americans to have a pastime, just allowed them to use allegories in sports to say what's really going on and to complain about that; hence, the strong opinions in sports (about how opposing baseball rivalries represented different managerial ideologies with no salary caps, etc) started from there and these extended metaphors transitioned into other sports when making analogies. i.e. certain land conflicts like the toledo war started the michigan-ohio state football rivalry, with some reasons for historical rivalries are scrubbed from documented history because the origins are debated, are politically incorrect to talk about outside of jokes, or because the schools are within close proximity to host each other, etc.
