About this episode
FOOTBALL AMERICA! host Dave Dameshek has long had his own idiosyncratic voice and style. He’s got a unique Pittsburgh flair, not that Blue Collar Steel Town would embrace having flair. He’s also, above all, a fantastically authoritative arbiter. And so I invited Dave on to “arbit” on a range of topics including but not limited to…
* What’s America’s Mount Rushmore of regional accents?
* Which American accent would you want your hypothetical wife to have?
* We want Southern accents in pilots?
* Dave Portnoy as Michigan homer on Fox? Fair or foul?
* The problem with athlete broadcasters
* Great pro athlete, bad broadcaster?
* Moralizing sports terms like “Don’t get pass happy!”
* Domes for NFL teams, yay or nay?
* Can tiny Floyd Mayweather be the GOAT fighter if so many could kick his ass?
* Ban the tush push?
* Field goals are too easy (unless you’re Jake Moody)
