Floyd Mayweather was in complete control for every second of the Conor McGregor fight

In terms of actually looking back and thinking about it, there was not one second that [Mayweather] wasn't in complete control. Like Connor threw some big punches, but Floyd knew exactly what he was doing the whole time. He's like, I'll play defense for a few rounds, and then he's going to get gassed, which he did, and he knocked him out.

While McGregor had a high volume of punches early, Mayweather's defensive strategy and eventual TKO victory in the 10th round support the idea that he was managing the pace.

Blake Bortles is the Jaguars' QB1 for the 2017 season

Blake Bortles is back... he is QB1 for the season. All you haters out there. Blake Bortles, QB1, Jacksonville Jaguars. Write it down.

Bortles did start all 16 games for the Jaguars in 2017, leading them to the AFC Championship game.

A solo hungover Chinese food order must be at least $75

If you order Chinese food by yourself, by the way, when you're hungover and you are under $75, you're doing it wrong. Because what you need to do when you're hungover and you're ordering Chinese food is you order every single thing that you might just want a little taste of.

This is a subjective lifestyle take regarding the proper way to order takeout while hungover.

Ice cream is the most efficient way to cool your core down during a hangover

I'm going to go with just ice cream because it's so easy. You don't have to worry about chewing it... it cools your core down when you get that hangover where you're dehydrated and you have that lava core. You're sitting on your couch sweating, but if you have the ice cream, it cools you down more efficiently than anything else could.

While cold food lowers internal temperature slightly, there's no medical evidence it's the 'most efficient' way to recover from a hangover compared to hydration or electrolytes.

Avoid betting on big favorites early in the college football and NFL seasons

Stay away from the big favorites. Either take the points or don't bet the game... Don't buy all the hype about the big favorites all the time.

This is a standard betting philosophy regarding early-season volatility.

Florida State is a good bet to cover the spread against Alabama in Week 1

Alabama is going to go about a seven on Florida State. The Noles, pretty good. Pretty good football team. Quarterback coming back. You might want to take a flyer with the points on something like that.

Alabama defeated Florida State 24-7 on Sept 2, 2017. Alabama covered the 7-point spread.

I will not vote for Sam Darnold for the Heisman if USC changes the name of their horse Traveler

I will not vote for [Sam] Darnold if they change the name of that horse... I got to vote. If they mess around with my horse, I'm off him. I won't vote.

USC did not change the name of the horse, and Sam Darnold did not win the Heisman (Baker Mayfield did). Musburger's actual vote remains private.

The Cleveland Browns are a great betting value early in the 2017 season

The Cleveland Browns [is my favorite NFL bet]. No, you know why? They're going to get a lot of points. They're an awful team. I'm going to get double-digit points. No one's going to be betting on them. So I'm going to take them.

The 2017 Browns went 0-16 straight up and 4-12 against the spread, making them one of the worst teams to bet on in NFL history.

Brock Osweiler being benched is a win because it keeps him off the Browns jersey of failure

His name is not going to be on that Browns jersey that has the list of every single quarterback that they've had for the last 20 years. Because once your name goes up there, it's up there forever... And Osweiler would be like the perfect punchline on that thing.

This is a subjective 'spinzone' take on a player's reputation.
