The Astros should blow up the train tracks at Minute Maid Park

If you're the Houston Astros, you have to blow up that train station. You have to blow up those tracks because there have been so many iconic home runs that have found their way onto or through those train tracks in the history of your franchise in the biggest possible moments that you've had. You've got to blow that fucking thing up.

This is a subjective opinion on stadium aesthetics and 'jinxes.' The train tracks remained.

The Red Sox would have beaten the Braves if they made the World Series

Absolutely. Absolutely. Congratulations to the Boston Red Sox. Thank you. 2021 World Series champions.

The Red Sox did not make the World Series, so they could not have beaten the Braves. The Braves won the title.

Patrick Mahomes is no longer capable of making a normal throw

I think they do it to keep Patrick Mahomes entertained because he's so good when he's just throwing the ball. But now it seems like he's become incapable of making a normal throw, where even the normal throws that he has, he does the different arm angles. He does the underhand. He does the left-handed stuff. Just play football, and you guys will be fine. I promise.

While he was in a slump, Mahomes' career since shows he is very capable of playing 'normal' football, winning multiple Super Bowls after this.

Travis Kelce is declining and it changes the Chiefs' entire team dynamic

Travis Kelce, just put in your tickler file. He still looks kind of the same, but he also is 32. And his numbers have not looked great the last few weeks. I don't think he's over the hill. But... Like, the Chiefs are predicated on Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce both being monsters. If he went from 100% Travis Kelce to 85% Travis Kelce, I think it changes the dynamic of their team. I think we're in the neighborhood of 90% Travis Kelce right now.

Kelce had 1,000+ yard seasons in 2022 and 2023, proving he was still at an elite level despite being 32.

Mitch Trubisky would win too many games for the Washington Football Team

The football team, we don't need to win any more games. At this point, he [Trubisky] would win us too many games, and then we would not be able to draft another quarterback. So it's pretty depressing to think about where I am as a fan, that I was over the moon thinking about that possibility.

Subjective fan sentiment about 'tanking' vs. mediocre success.

The CFP committee has effectively eliminated Cincinnati before the season's end

The college football committee has essentially eliminated Cincinnati before they even get to the stretch run. Because not only were they ranked sixth, but they also didn't rank Houston or SMU... zero good games that Cincinnati can win the rest of the way. So they basically have made it impossible.

Cincinnati actually became the first Group of Five team to make the College Football Playoff that season, finishing #4 in the final rankings.

The ACC should not be a Power 5 conference in football when Clemson is bad

The ACC is so down, they don't have wins against ranked teams. I don't think the ACC should be a Power 5 conference in football. When Clemson's bad, it hurts. I really don't. It hurts.

The ACC remains a Power 4/5 conference, but this is a subjective argument about competitive quality.

Never trust anyone who owns a monkey or a snake as a pet

Never trust anyone who owns a monkey or a snake as a pet. They're not trustworthy... A monkey is just, it's basically you buy a monkey, it sits in your house, and it's just you set the timer for when it decides it wants to rip your face off. That's all it is.

This is a hyperbolic personality judgment that cannot be factually proven.

Kyrie Irving is refusing the vaccine as part of a viral marketing scheme for the new Matrix movie

My cool throne is Kyrie Irving, because I'm pretty sure he's not getting vaccinated for an entire like prolonged ad for the new Matrix thing that's coming out in December... I think he's not getting vaccinated as part of a viral marketing scheme for the new Matrix.

Kyrie Irving was not actually a paid marketer for The Matrix Resurrections; his refusal was personal/political.

Sam Ehlinger will replace Carson Wentz as the Colts' starter

My hot seat is Carson Wentz. Brett Hundley was recently released from the Colts, and Sam Ehlinger was promoted to QB2... Who knows if Carson Wentz gets benched, Sam Ehlinger comes in.

Wentz started all 17 games for the Colts in 2021. Ehlinger did not replace him mid-season.

The Georgia Bulldogs are winning the national championship

Yeah, I'm already checking out my ring size. Like, they're going to give me a national championship ring. Why not?

Georgia won the 2021 National Championship, defeating Alabama in the title game.

I would rather be on 'Team Brooksy' than Bryson DeChambeau

Oh, my gosh, man. Brooksy all day... because Brooks puts on this thing where he thinks he's a Superman, but he is such a teddy bear behind the scenes. Yes, he is. He's a beautiful man.

Subjective personal preference.

Almost having sex is better than actually having sex

I am a long-standing believer that almost fucking is better than fucking. Because you can go home, and one, you didn't cheat... Two, you can go home and get the late-night piece of pizza and be like, man, I would have fucked. And it would have been awesome. Still got it.

This is a highly subjective and humorous lifestyle take.
