Recap
Big CatThe Cubs should win the World Series if they are the only team without a COVID positive
I feel like every single team has had positives actually except for the Cubs. Shout out the Cubs. They should probably win it if the Cubs are the only team that don't get a Corona positive do they win the title? Yes, right.
Big CatRob Manfred has been a total debacle in handling MLB's return
Rob Manfred being like I'm gonna threaten you guys if you don't start following the rules, we're going to cancel the league... he just has to be Rob Manfred has to go to bed every single night... he pulls out his Roger Goodell voodoo doll and starts poking it with pins being like, please fuck this up Goodell, please fuck this up because if you fuck this up, no one will give a shit.
PFT CommenterNFL players will lie about having COVID just to keep playing
The one thing that I think the NFL still has going for it is that pretty much every single player is just going to lie when they have coronavirus. I think there will be a whole team that's sick and we just won't know about it.
Big CatAlex Caruso has become 'overratedly underrated'
He has become, I wrote this down when I was watching the game, he started out being underrated but then he was so underrated that he became overrated but now it's swung back and now he's like overratedly underrated. So now he's underrated again.
Big CatThe Pelicans not playing Zion Williamson more minutes is failing the whole reason they were invited
The Pelicans not realizing the whole reason they were invited was to get Zion in the playoffs and playing him 29 minutes over two games... we wanted to watch Zion. Yeah, he's a little heavy but we still wanted to watch him and you played him 29 minutes in two games... the Pelicans are not going to play ball.
Who Is Back
Big CatMike Glennon is the perfect quarterback for people to use in Kaepernick comparison tweets
Every year we have to have at least one quarterback that's the perfect person for half of Twitter to quote tweet and be like Colin Kaepernick isn't on an NFL team but this person. Yes, Mike Glennon is like the perfect person to focus our attention on there.
Billy FootballAugust is the 'Sunday of Summer'
My real who's back to the week is Seasons. Yeah dude, it's August. Yeah... August for me is always like oh, it's Sunday. Oh because back to school. Yeah, you're still in the mode where like I go to the department store with your mom and you see backpacks on sale.
Trouble In Paradise
Big CatAaron Rodgers will leave the Packers in a few years just like Brett Favre
I think that if he does play this year and he plays well, it's going to be the Brett Favre thing. They're going to give him two more years... And then after a couple seasons, he'll go somewhere else.
PFT CommenterAaron Rodgers would rather play for Mike McCarthy in Dallas right now
Aaron Rodgers right now... he would rather I think play for Mike McCarthy right now than Matt LaFleur. Yes who can say what you want about Mike McCarthy, but he never acquired a good quarterback to play behind them... Rodgers always good in Jerry world. So maybe he goes down to Dallas.
Pr 101
Big CatMets GM Brodie Van Wagenen intentionally leaked that Yoenis Cespedes was missing to spite him
He knew that Cespedes packed up his shit and left because he was opting out but he used to be Cespedes's Agent and so he's pissed that Yoenis ended up signing with Roc Nation. And so now he's like feeding all this shit into the media... first thought if somebody just ditches the Mets you don't immediately suspect that they're dead.
