Who Is Back
Big CatIf you stay in a bar that is uncomfortably hot, you are a crazy person
If you go into a bar that is hot and you don't leave immediately, you're a crazy person. I will absolutely call a night like, alright, night's over if I walk into a bar and it is uncomfortably hot in there.
Mount Rushmore
Big Cat60s and 70s rock was specifically made to be listened to in a car on the highway
Bands in the late 60s and 70s made all of their music so that it sounded beautiful in a car going 75 miles on the highway.
Big CatDiversify your investment by buying scratch tickets in multiple states to become a millionaire
On a road trip, little pro tip, you buy scratch tickets or lotto tickets at every single stop in multiple different states. It's called diversifying your investment. And you will then become a millionaire.
Interview
Bob StoopsI would not return to coaching even for a $100 million offer
Why would I do that? I would have stayed doing what I was doing. So I was ready to make $6 million almost at Oklahoma. Already built, already ready to roll. [Even for] $100 million. Obviously, it's not about money. So, no, I'm good. I'm good.
Bob StoopsLincoln Riley is the right character and guy to lead Oklahoma forward
Lincoln's the right guy. He's got all the right attributes and character to be the guy to continue to lead the program forward. And I knew that. And I believed strongly that the administration would believe that as well. And so it could be as seamless as could be.
Summer Of Paul George
Big CatKevin Love is the perfect fall guy for LeBron James because he won't talk back
Actually we kind of predicted this, that Kevin Love was going to be the fall guy. Everyone knows you need a fall guy. Chris Carter told everyone, need a fall guy. Kevin Love is the perfect fall guy for LeBron [James] because Kevin Love's never going to say anything. He's not going to subtweet. He's just going to go about his business.
Put One In His Earhole
Big CatRussell Wilson is at the bottom of NFL coolness
Derek Carr is pretty much a great player, pretty lame dude. Way cooler than Russell Wilson. But to be chirping Russell Wilson and ball-busting Russell Wilson, Russell Wilson is actually at the bottom of NFL players when it comes to coolness.
Talking Soccer
PFT CommenterThe Sounders and Timbers only play each other in MLS
I feel like the Sounders and Timbers only play each other. I'm convinced that MLS was like, hey, you guys in the Pacific Northwest, you tend to enjoy your scarves and your soccer. Just play each other all the time. We'll pretend like it's an MLS game, but it's not real.
