The Celtics will beat the Mavericks in six games

Yeah, we're thinking Celtics and Six. The, the Mavs aren't gonna go away. They're gonna, they're gonna give us their best shot, but, but it's, it might be Celtics and five.

The Celtics won the NBA Finals in 5 games, not 6.

The Mavericks were stupid to wear their black jerseys in Game 1

I still think that the Mavs were stupid to wear these jerseys in game one. I don't know if they did that because Luca looked very slim to them. I was thinking blue. These jerseys feel like the jerseys you wear for Star Wars night in like early February.

This is a subjective aesthetic opinion about team uniforms.

Mike McDaniel's fixation on the Dolphins' 24-year playoff win drought is a bad sign

I'm worried about Mike McDaniels... Dolphins have not won a playoff game in 24 years. He now has every staff meeting he puts at 24 on the hour. 7 24. I don't like that. You're just thinking about it all the time... This is like after the double doink year when Matt Nagy ended every practice with all the kickers having to kick a 41 yarder. It's in his head.

It would be a 'shame' if Justin Fields won a Super Bowl with the Steelers

I think the ultimate shame would be if Justin Fields won a Super Bowl with the Steelers. A crying shame. I'm not gonna root for it, but if, if it does happen, just know that it would be a, it would be, it would be a shame.

The 2024 NFL season is ongoing. Fields is on the Steelers, but a Super Bowl win is pending.

Coach K is using his role as a Lakers consultant to force Dan Hurley out of college basketball

Coach K did all of this... Coach K sees Dan Hurley win his second national title back to back. He looks around, he says, look, there's a lot of, a lot of guys in, in college basketball that will never reach where I'm at. They won't be the old school. Tough style Like Dan Hurley. He's a throwback. He's a relic. I gotta figure out a way to make sure that Dan Hurley doesn't surpass me as the goat... He's getting Dan Hurley to go to the Lakers. So Dan Hurley can't take everything from John Scheyer and Duke and Coach K and all his legacy and stuff.

While Coach K did advise the Lakers, the idea that it was a hit job to protect his legacy is satirical. Hurley eventually turned down the job to stay at UConn.

Matt Cook was a dirty player

I remember either [Chris Higgins] in the intermission, he said, Hey, just make sure you keep your head about there 'cause you know these guys are coming after you... Matt Cook kind of asked me to go... ended up knocking him out... But he was a, he was a dirty, dirty player.

Matt Cook's career was defined by several high-profile suspensions and controversial hits, making this a widely held view in the hockey world.

Atlanta deserves to have an NHL team again

I loved Atlanta. I loved my time there. I had an incredible two years. The fans in Atlanta I think we're awesome. I think it's a great city to live. Lots to do. I'm all for getting hockey back in Atlanta. I think just, you know, that's where I started my career at my first two years there. I had great experiences and, and I'd love to see hockey back in that market with the right ownership group.

The Florida Panthers will win the Stanley Cup in six games

Right now I have Florida and six. Right. I think that overall they have the better team... Florida is expected to be there. They have the goal tending, they have more depth on defense. They're overall better on defense.

The Florida Panthers did win the Stanley Cup, but it took seven games, not six.

Sasha Barkov is the best 200-foot center in the world

Sasha Barkov easily in the world right now, probably the new Anze Kopitar as the best 200 foot center... he back checks like a maniac. He's the most reliable center ice position player I believe on the planet. Even more so than McDavid from a defensive standpoint.

Barkov won the 2024 Selke Trophy as the NHL's best defensive forward shortly before this, lending strong support to the claim.

The El Camino is the 'mullet' of cars

One word to describe El Camino and it's bitching. This ride is fucking sweet. 1970 SS racing stripe cherry red. I'm actually thinking about getting a mullet as an accessory to my car. I like that because the, the El Camino is a mullet of cars. Yeah. It's business in the front party in the back.
