We are joined by Spike Eskin, friend of pod, Rights to Ricky Sanchez co-host, and WFAN muckity muck. This was a wide ranging one, including but not limited to: * My shaky foray into tweeting, in defense of ratings talk * Spike and I discussing what it’s like to have a negative take and how it tilts what you want * NFL writer Bill Barnwell takes a shot at the Eagles fans * A subscriber emails me a Sam Hinkie takedown for Spike to address * Can civilians do real NFL analysis? * A reader agrees with Spike and hates on the Bear. * Would Mad Men be better with New York accents?
