Take of the Day

Michigan saves basketball from the UConn 'Dynasty.' PFT warned us years ago that a third straight UConn title would make them 'bad for basketball'—thankfully, the Wolverines stepped in to save the sport's parity.

If UConn wins a third title in a row, they will officially be 'bad for basketball' like their women's team was

What happens if UConn wins a third in a row? ... At that point they become UConn women's team. Yeah. They're bad for basketball 10 years ago. They're bad for basketball.

UConn did not win a third in a row, so the condition was never met.

Ime Udoka is the best at laying pipe among NBA coaches

You look at the Celtics Ime Udoka lays pipe better than any of these motherfuckers. Feels like he could spoil shit and he goes down. Yeah. She knows that he's not the whole package though.

While meant as a joke about physical presence, Udoka was suspended months later for an affair with a staff member, making this take legendary in retrospect.

Mac Jones will be a bust because he is crying in his DUI mugshot

I like my quarterbacks when they get a mug shot to not have a little cry in their eyes. Oh, he's sad in it? Yeah, look it up. He's got a tiny bit of cry in his eyes. So I'm saying bust just on that. Just based on that.

Mac Jones was benched and eventually traded by the Patriots after three seasons, largely considered a bust for a first-round pick.

Antonio Brown will never play a single game for the Raiders

Here's my take: [Antonio Brown] is not going to ever play a game as a Raider. I think they're either going to cut him. They're probably not going to be able to trade him anywhere.

Antonio Brown was released by the Raiders on September 7, 2019, one day after this episode aired, without ever playing in a regular-season game.

The Chiefs trading up for Patrick Mahomes was the worst pick in the draft

The worst pick, I think, in the draft was Mahomes at 10 and the Chiefs trading up 17 picks to get him? Do you think they did that because they're like, yo, Ryan Pace is going to get a lot of heat? Now's our time to just go under the radar and just, who cares? No one's going to talk about us.

Patrick Mahomes became arguably the greatest quarterback of his generation, making this an all-time 'Freezing Cold Take'.

Jimmy Butler is not and will never be a relevant NBA player

Jimmy Butler is not a relevant player. He's never going to be a relevant player... every time you mention Jimmy Butler's name on the show, like I want to go shoot heroin into my arm and pass out.

Jimmy Butler became a 6-time All-Star, 5-time All-NBA player, and led the Miami Heat to two NBA Finals, making him one of the most relevant players of his generation.

I bet $10,000 that I can dunk a men's basketball on a 10-foot rim by the end of 2024

I'll bet you $10,000. You can't do it by the end of the year. Yeah, I'll match... Men's basketball, 10 foot rim... Deal, deal, deal... I'm due to follow up on one of these things and make it happen.

Hank did not dunk a basketball by the end of 2024.

Baker Mayfield is a height and speed deficient quarterback who should not be paid a top-of-market contract.

Baker Mayfield is a guy that is just objectively short and slow... you can't pay him $40 million a year because you've got to keep Chubb and Ward and all these other guys... In my opinion, he's somewhere between the 6th and 8th best quarterback in the AFC. How are you going to win a championship?

Mayfield's career subsequently declined with the Browns, leading to his trade. While he had a resurgence later with Tampa Bay, Tannenbaum's assessment that the Browns shouldn't pay him top market value proved accurate for Cleveland.

I am betting against the Los Angeles Rams' 'stars and scrubs' roster model paying off.

It's a huge calculated risk that may pay off, but if I had to bet, I'm betting against it... they're saying, F that. Like, we're going to get Jalen Ramsey, Aaron Donald. Like, we're going to go play five against 11. But our five are so good, we're going to win. I think when you look at their offensive line guys, they are paper thin.

The 2021 Los Angeles Rams went on to win Super Bowl LVI, proving the model was successful for that season.

Kyler Murray is going to have a great season this year.

Arizona Cardinals are a really interesting team this year. I just, their offense is gonna be awesome. I think their offense is gonna be great. I have a feeling that Kyler Murray's gonna have a great year. I think they're gonna be a lot of fun to watch.

The Cardinals' performance through 2024 will determine if Murray has a 'great' year.

I will eat a pound of corn if the Billy/Jake/Memes team wins the Fruit Mount Rushmore

If you lose, I wanna see you eat five pounds of corn... Alright, how about a pound of—I'm talking about by the way, loose corn? Not ears of corn. A pound of corn. Deal.

The results of these polls are determined by fan voting on Twitter. If the listeners voted for Team Billy/Jake, Big Cat would be on the hook for the corn.

I can successfully kick a 44-yard field goal with two months of training.

I think I can get to 44 yards if I give myself two months of training. Hank dunking, me kicking a 44 yard field goal. I'm gonna try to work the leg back up.

Outcome unknown/pending based on whether he attempts it.
