The GM Shuffle with Michael Lombardi

Great to hear smile’s early NFL experience today. Great stories - picking up cigarettes, getting hand me down clothes, etc.

This is the best NFL podcast!!!! Each time I listen, I learn something new. Lombardi backs up his analysis with facts. He is refreshing to listen to. Unlike other shows, Lombardi does not sugar coat or give measured responses. He does not hedge. He takes a stance on a subject based on his experience as an NFL executive as well as his unsurpassed knowledge of the game. And I am a Giants fan. I love him for speaking his truth about this dysfunctional and dreadful organization. The Giants have lost their way. Unfortunately, things will continue to spiral downwards. Indeed, John Mara needs to wake up. For this upcoming season, I am looking at 3-14 record. I enjoy listening to segments about leadership. In addition, Lombardi is well read. I love when he talks about his own books as well as books about the NFL. Two suggestions: Please teach me and listeners how you watch game on TV. I have heeded your advice about muting or turning the sound low. I try to not watch the ball. I pay attention to the guards on offense. Based on if they fall back or move forward let me know whether it is a run or pass. I like to watch the DT too. Are they taking on blocks to keep the linebackers clean? When evaluating players in a game. What do you look at in a player? For a defensive back, how they move their hips? A Tackle how they use their feet? I would like to meet Mr Lombardi. We share common interests in movie and film too. I loved Bill Walsh book. Score Takes Care of Itself. I would like Mr Lombardi to start a book club segment to his pod. Ie. Must read books about the game. Warmly, Glenn Warciski

Love the show with Youmans! Hopefully he stays as the host for a little while! Keep up the great work fellas!

Used to really enjoy listening to Michael and his insights and had been a follower since his days at the Ringer but the constant ripping on the Falcons for not hiring his buddy Belichik has gotten old. Looking forward to Bill not getting hired somewhere else next year so Lombardi has another team to complain about constantly. I might resubscribe then.
