Audible Listeners - Check In Here (1 Viewer)

[Sigmund Bloom]

As we round the turn into the end of 07 NFL season and the beginning of the 08 draft season, we want to get some specific feedback from our listeners to help us make the show even better in the future. If you are interested in giving us your thoughts on some specific questions/ideas for the future and evaluation of how we did in 2007, reply in this thread, PM me, or email me - we want to have this wrapped up before the holidays - so we request to have the answers back by next Friday (12/28) at the very latest.

Thanks for listening!

I wanted to let you guys know that you have the best format, best info and overall the best podcast on the web. That's not hyberbole, but the truth.

I've listened to a ton of the "pros" do theirs and you guys have them beat. Whether its the college coverage, or previews/reviews episodes, yours is superior to many network productions (CBx, ExPN, etc..).

The banter back and forth is great and keeps the cast light. Your self-deprecaiting humor about Bloom's love of Marshall and Cecil's haircut, and Cecil's love for food, and Cecil's love for White makes for a entertaining podcast.

Even the placement of the commericals is great. Either at the beginning or at the end makes it easier to put up with than placing something right in middle.

My only request would be more. More of everything except the commericals. But we would even put up with a slight rise in them.

So when's the next one coming out? Today? This afternoon? Tonight?



PS: I feel the podcast is worth the yearly price by itself. Don't lose it.

I am a first time IDPer this year and the IDP roundtable has been invaluable. Great job, guys and thanks!

I have my #2 ready....

I have my #2 ready....

I'm a two year listener to the Audible...easily one of the top 2 FF podcasts out there. The BEST with regards to scouting reports and KNOWING the players.The Audible is great. Only complaint is that sometimes the Wrap Ups on Sunday/Monday are sort of like 'so and so is good' instead of laying out football specifics or stats. For the Preview show, more situational stats would help (Buffalo is 0-4 lifetime vs. the Cowboys...etc, etc. or Isaac Bruce has 4 TDs in his last 4 games vs. ARI...). Also, for the preview show, more specifics on 'how much' you like a guy would help..instead of saying 'start Big Ben', say "Big Ben is a top 5, I'd start him over Favre/D.Anderson, but maybe not over Romo..." or give he's a RB1 or RB2 to help with very specific lineup questions. Also, maybe more of a nod to PPR leagues? I notice that you guys make comments alot regarding who's getting catches, but more specifics would help.I like the Drill alot and love the detail of data that goes into it (and the research you use...ie, giving great data on Rookies or backup guys weeks before they start showing up in the boxscore). I would love for it to be:1. longer2. maybe a basic transcript with a wrap up posted on FBG (I am sometimes scrambling for a pen when I am listening) 3. maybe more than one show/format to help with each week...like a Waiver Wire show on Monday/Tuesday; General Information Show; Start/Sit or Matchup Highlights to help with matchups right before the weekend.

Holiday Bump for anyone we missed on the first go round

I listened before the draft but not lately.

You want honesty. Here it is.

The info is excellent. Some of the above suggestions ie. target info, RB1 or RB2 designation and the like would be cool.

But please, Cecil needs to chill out. He's too nerdy and nowhere near as funny as he thinks he is.

More Bloom and Falety (sp?)

I have listened to every non-IDP episode. This includes all the Shrine game episodes and the like. I love the show and the personalities. I even like the roughness of the show; that it's not over-produced.

I use the info quite a bit. Sometimes I actually listen to the shows twice. Like today when I spent 4 hours digging out my car from the past few storms we've had in NE.

I don't have any criticism of the show. But do you guys realize that most of the time the very end of the part 2s are slightly cut off? I would imagine the sponsors wouldn't be too happy about that.

 

[toastedgnome]

at someone calling a fantasy football host too nerdy.

I think Cecil does a great job of hosting the show, it just wouldn't be the Audible without him. Perhaps I enjoy the show so much because I get most of the 80's hair metal references. A host that is boring makes for a boring show. Cecil and Mark Schlereth were on the air Friday on The Fan, and they were talking about Ruinromo.com and the Jessica Simpson masks. Lammey says something like, "Yeah, that might work, but how often does Romo look at her face?"

Bloom does a good job with analysis, and I like the rapport that he and Lammey have. EEEEBrandon Marshall is famous around my friends. Sigmund is very insightful and will not hesitate to admit when he is wrong.

Faleti has been a welcome addition to the show. I like the way that he "GOES OFF" at least once per show. You can tell by listening that he is very passionate about football. I like him being a thorn in Lammey's side about LenWhale

that's my

Bloom - PM me one of those surveys please!

I would like more of a focus on the pats --- maybe a 5 minute segment, or something.

I would like better mics and higher bitrates. That has nothing to do what you guys have done. I love the show and you all do a great job with the football talk. Thanks guys, keep up the good work.
