The Sports Dork and "These too cool for school comics"

[orator]

ugh. i'm not 5 minutes into this and I wanna smack Simmons.

that analogy may be the worst I've ever heard

[Christina]

wow, I didn't know podcasts had ads

Oh, man, WFMU has spoiled us, haven't they?

It seems like all the podcasts I ever tried out had paid ads from adamandeve.com ...

[betheboy]

I will admit that Patton's GG Allin reference made this all worthwhile.  Bill must have had to Wiki that one.

[orator]

that was good

Sports Douche wasn't too bad

that first few minutes were brutal, though

"Stand-up comics are kind of like women."

Best moments of the podcast were Patton's almost derisive laughter when Simmons topped off his 'Golden Era of Sports Movies' list with Teen Wolf, Simmons declaring to Patton that Dane Cook's "got a bad rap" and Patton answering with silence... and nearly five minutes later Patton half-jokingly admonishing Simmons to not steal jokes for his column.

[Kid Pain]

to be fair, I'm guessing the dane cook bad rap was a joke. Simmons is another one of Dane cook's public feud combatants.

Ah yes, I had forgotten about the great Cook-Simmons 'two way tie for last' feud of 2007.

Regardless of your feeling re: Sports Guy, Patton is really wonderful here.

It's like you guys are daring me to listen to this.

im an avid listener of the sports guy (sports douche?) and it was so refreshing to hear patton demolish all of his weird preconceived notions about stand up. the stuff about chappelle was interesting too.

I'm so used to hearing Patton talking to other comics that it was kind of nice to hear him butting up against someone who is outside of the scene.

I mistakenly looked at his latest column which leads off with the same bit about women being crazy after having children.  He'll probably use it several more times this NFL Season. 

The problem here is clearly me though since I'm the dope who keeps reading.

I listened to the Patton one today and thought it was pretty good. Simmons seemed better than I thought he would since 90% of it wasn't about sports or Big Fan. Patton was funny as usual.

It's nothing new, pretty sure he's been using it since he had his 2nd kid.

I object to your implying that he recycles terrible material.

Wait, what's the opposite of object?
