Does anyone know why they chose to upgrade with Hester and Flynn? Send T - Bob packing?

The didn’t send him packing. He got a better offer.

By the way, it’s not an upgrade.

Its definitely not an upgrade so far for Off the Bench

They’ve been talking about football for an hour and a half. Do they know there’s a baseball game in half an hour?

I wouldnt call it a downgrade either. It's just a bit of a different show now. A lot less chaotic... Which for offseason is ok. But come football season someone is gonna have to ramp up the "non-sense"

Who didn't? Tbob?

TBob started talking to Barstool 7 months ago. He met with Dave at the Super Bowl. His contract was up this year and he was already doing national stuff with Rome.

This was in the works for a long time. Flynn didn't even express interest in doing it until like April.

They have all been very open about this.

I'm sure they'll get somebody else in there Matt Flynn has the personality of a dead moth.

I work in media and yes a lot of these contracts when they're up people start making moves well in advance if they plan to stay or vice versa. So it's not uncommon for move to be made -

This is no upgrade. Flynn was the easy choice after T-Bob left, but this Football Bro-mance these two have doesn't work during baseball season. I'm sure it wil be fine for football season but the show is just boring. And Alondra is the worst radio personality in BR. Literally the worst takes and the Ums, and likes . She said the other day she has bad feeling about the super-regional but on the other hand she has a good feeling??!! WTF?

It is a stark contrast between what it was and what it is now

Flynn and Hester are just too similar in every way.

It is kinda boring

One morning about 3 months ago Hester was blasting a local restaurant for correcting his son for running in the restaurant. He didn’t call the name but kept saying we were regulars but we are not going back.

Guess he’s too good to have his kids corrected.

I like Flynn. I like his dry sense of humor. It's the middle of summer anyway. Nothing they say at this point in time is important. They just killing time until we can talk foosball in august.
