Putting the Bill Simmons podcast on notice

I'm putting the Bill Simmons podcast on notice this week, baby. I'm coming for you, Bill. There's nothing you can do to stop me. It's a revolution.

Satirical bravado about competing with Bill Simmons; six months later PFT would co-create Pardon My Take which actually did become a massive podcast

If you're not early to my show, you're late -- tune in 15 minutes before air

If you're not early to my show, you're late. So for future reference, you need to be tuning in 15 minutes before I hit the air. Otherwise, what are you even doing here?

Satirizing the 'tough love' sports talk host persona. Obviously you can't tune into a show 15 minutes before it airs.

This show is an open forum for people of all Christian denominations to talk football

It's going to be a safe place. It's going to be an open forum for people of all Christian denominations to talk football.

The narrow 'inclusivity' of 'all Christian denominations' while framing it as a 'safe place' is peak PFT satire of conservative sports media.

The only degree that matters in the NFL is the temperature of your takes

The game of football, it's become so geared towards stats these days with fantasy football and daily fantasy stuff and all that garbage that it's almost like you've got to have two master's degrees and not getting laid to figure out what's going on. The only degree that matters when it comes to the NFL is the temperature of your takes.

Satirizing the anti-analytics crowd in sports media. This is a foundational PFT bit -- hot takes over cold hard facts.
