Recap
PFT CommenterBuilding a dome in Cleveland is wrong because it ruins snow football
The lake came to play tonight. The snow was, it was gorgeous. It was artistic out there. They're trying to take snow football away from you. They're trying to build a dome in Cleveland and that's not gonna look right at all. Seeing the Browns playing good weather, like indoor weather in late November, December, maybe January. That's not gonna look right to me.
Big CatThe Steelers are just 'pretty good plus sometimes'
I'll make a deal with your, you here. I think I'm comfortable saying the Steelers are pretty good. Plus pretty good plus pretty good plus I could do pretty good. Plus I can meet you a pretty good plus about really pretty good plus kind of sometimes. Really pretty good. Plus sometimes.
Picks
Big CatThe Colts will keep it close against the Lions
I actually think the Colts are gonna be in this game. I don't think the Colts are gonna win this game, but I think they're gonna keep it close. And it might be the dumbest thing ever. But I'm, I actually, no, I haven't, I haven't been bad. I just think seven and a half Colts really need these games.
HankThe Patriots are the team nobody wants to play in the AFC East
I think so. Usually the, you know, with the Patriots, it's like all the trends reversing the Dolphins have always been like the boogeyman even when the, when Brady was there and the Patriots are good. This is the trend weekend reverse in our favor.
Big CatThe Giants are starting Tommy DeVito because they are trying to tank
I think they're trying to lose. I think they're trying to lose and try to tank for a quarterback. Yeah. Which would make sense.
Big CatThe Cardinals are for real
I'm ready to fully believe in the Cardinals. I might crown their asses. I just know the Cardinals feel like a very sound football team through and through off the bye week. Their eyes are there. They have the NFC West. If they could string together some more wins, especially in the division, they're undefeated in the division right now.
Interview
Tarik SkubalThe pinnacle of pitching is winning a World Series ring
I just wanna win. I think the best thing in sports is winning. It cures everything. Individually, Triple Crown, Cy Young, obviously you wanna do that again. But it all wouldn't mean as much if I don't have a ring. If not multiple. That's why you play. At least that's why I play the game is to win World Series rings and go perform on that stage.
Tarik SkubalTo get college hitters out, throw slow fastballs (45 mph) down the middle
My advice would be to throw it very slow. The slower... once you get to like 65, 70 miles an hour, that's when guys are gonna start unleashing on it. My advice would be to hone in a really slow pitch over the zone. If you can like dial in a 45 mile an hour fastball and throw it on the two seams, don't throw it on the four seams, throw it on the two seams, it'll cut for you and do some cool sinking stuff.
Rex RyanI would turn the Jets around in two minutes if I took over
I'd like to. There's no doubt about it. I've let everybody know that I definitely would be interested in that job... I think if I took over it'd be, it'd be turned in about two minutes because I think it starts with the passion and the energy that I would bring to that building. And the, we're not gonna take any poop mentality either. I know when I get an opportunity to interview for it, I'm gonna get the job.
Rex RyanBen Johnson will be a superstar head coach, the next Bill Walsh
Ben Johnson's gonna be a superstar, in my opinion, maybe the next Bill Walsh. Like, so to me if you could add him... I think this kid right here has a chance to be outstanding like hall of fame type guy. I know the way he prepares, I know all that type of stuff.
Rex RyanCaleb Williams is a generational talent
This is a generational talent. He really is. When he throws the ball on time, inside of three seconds he's in the top three in the league in QBR... I think the kid is gonna be a phenomenal kid... with the skillset he has, man, I'm telling you like I think he's gonna be a superstar in the league. I really do.
Rex RyanCoaches in the NFL know zero about strength and conditioning
That's an underrated thing right there. Strength and conditioning thing. 'Cause guess what, guess how many coaches know anything about strength and conditioning? That'd be zero. Nobody does. But it's so damn important.
