Recap
PFT CommenterBryce Harper will eventually sign with the New York Yankees
Bryce Harper is going to look great in pinstripes. ... If you look back over the course of history, this is the biggest prediction that everybody will get right.
HankThe Red Sox championship window is currently two to three years
Yeah, it's like two or three years. ... Luckily, their third best pitcher [Rick Porcello] just won the Cy Young.
Big CatComplaints about there being too many college football bowl games are invalid
Shut the fuck up, people who complain about too many bowls. Oh, there's too much football. Free football is always good. If there's something, oh my God, I don't want to have another game I can bet on on a Tuesday afternoon when I don't want to talk to my family over the holiday season. Shut up.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
PFT CommenterRyan Fitzpatrick will spend the next ten years as a premier NFL backup
He's got another 10 years in this league as a backup. ... You get your name out there as a starter for four games. Little film. All of a sudden... You're one of the premier backups in the league.
Interview
Chael SonnenNutrition science in athletics is mostly a scam to sell books
I don't know how much nutrition has to really do with anything. I think most of the guys that preach the book of nutrition are looking to do just that, sell books. I'm not sure that there's any validity that you can't eat fats or saturated or carbohydrates. ... There's really no proof that bananas and nuts are any better for you than Big Macs and fries. If you can make the weight, you can make the weight.
Big CatConor McGregor would be soundly defeated and unable to land a punch on Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match
I think Conor McGregor, if he had to box Floyd Mayweather in actual boxing rules, he would get beat so soundly, and he would not be able to touch Floyd Mayweather.
Chael SonnenBoxing is a sport that almost nobody actually participates in
Mayweather's very good at what he does, but he is in a sport that nobody participates in. ... I never met a man that boxed. I could go a step further. I don't know where a boxing gym is. ... I couldn't tell you where to go to buy boxing gloves. And now that I just said it, you guys and all your listeners are going, yeah, he's right. Nobody boxes.
Chael SonnenI recommend testosterone and growth hormone as the best starting performance-enhancing drugs
If you were to use, I would say use testosterone for a couple of reasons. One, it's very effective, but two, it's also very affordable. ... I'll go with testosterone and growth hormone as a second.
PJ FleckAn undefeated Group of Five team deserves a shot in the College Football Playoff
Now, if you go 13-0 and 13-0, I think you deserve a shot in the Final Four. I really do. Same thing with a Boise State or a Houston or a Group of Five team that does that.
Kings Stay Kings
Big CatJeff Fisher's record for most losses in NFL history will never be broken
Jeff Fisher's losingest head coach in NFL history might be the untouchable record. ... Because they fire coaches now instantly. If you lose, you get two years max. There's no chance.
Stay Woke
PFT CommenterNews broadcasts should stop reporting on crimes to discourage copycats, similar to how the NFL stops showing streakers
The news should stop showing all the bad stuff that happens so it's work for me they should follow the NFL's lead once again Roger Goodell is a thought leader trying to improve society so hey news big news producers out there maybe stop leading with mass murders cut away from them and have Gruden just talk that's right and then and then there won't be any more murders
