Can I make a suggestion / request / comment?
Do you think you guys can be more conscious to repeat a players name throughout a your discussion about that player?
I find that often Paul will say let’s talk about Player X. And then you guys will go into a deep dive discussing Player X, but you have a habit of only referring to the guy as “him” for the rest of the conversation. Especially Eno I notice does this.
It is very easy to miss the initial mention of the guy’s name, especially as I often listen to the podcast while I’m doing something else (like driving or walking). I also sometimes do not listen to the entire pod in one sitting. If you pause mid discussion of a certain player, you tune back in to hear a 10 minute continuation of a discussion about HIS pitch mix, his velocity, where he stands on the rubber, etc. but never actually know it was Adam Ottavino unless if you rewind back to the beginning of the discussion.
I think this might be helpful for a lot of listeners, and I think would be an easy adjustment with just a tiny bit of effort to remember to repeat player’s names instead of always calling a guy “him”.
Thanks!! Keep up the great work!.
