I didn’t want to start a new thread but Parkins clearly took some shots at Hub on Monday. Hub even referenced it today on Bernstein. Surprised Beardown wasn’t all over that.


Regarding what?
(paraphrasing) Basically Parkins was upset that Nagy mentioned having talked to Sweaty Teddy on occasion. He felt Phillips should stay out of football business and just stick to the financial stuff.

Some people think that sports media people should just stick to sports as well. Parkins seems to bristle at that suggestion.

Losing games is bad business.

I was surprised at how pronounced it was.



I'd be surprised if there was much there but who knows when Im hearing from you. Only time I hear myself is on voice mail recordings and usually I sound like Im about to pass out on those..

IIRC they spoke like that in the old movies because the mics and subsequently the recordings picked up on that type of speech pattern better at the time.

It's a holdover from theatre. It was about splitting the difference between London and New York.
