Patrick Mahomes' knee injury will only keep him out for 3 to 4 weeks

Patrick Mahomes has a knee... hopefully it's only gonna be like three or four weeks. But if he has a ligament [tear] then it's more.

Mahomes dislocated his patella and returned in Week 10, exactly three weeks later (missing 2 games). PFT was very accurate.

Joe Flacco's body language is the most concerning thing about the Broncos offense

The most concerning thing about Joe Flacco tonight was his body language overall. He has a face that he looks like he's always looking for his car in a big parking lot... He looks like he knows that his body is not capable of doing anything anymore.

Flacco was placed on IR shortly after this game and never played for the Broncos again, confirming the 'not capable' sentiment.

The Astros are better than the Yankees in every facet: rotation, lineup, and relievers

As a scout, I am afraid of the Houston Astros. I will say it, I'm afraid. Their rotation is just as good as the Nationals and their lineup is better and their relievers are better.

The Astros beat the Yankees in 6 games in the ALCS, proving they were the better team at that moment.

Aaron Judge is too tall to be a consistent hitter

My hot take [is] that Aaron Judge is too tall... Altuve would be basically at his tits and [Judge] can't like get his body down that low... the strike zone is much bigger. It's a fact that the strike zone is bigger.

While Judge has a massive strike zone, he won MVP in 2022 and has been one of the best hitters in baseball, making 'too tall' factually debatable as a liability.

The Giants, Niners, and Seahawks will all win to complete a 'Can't Lose Parlay'

I got the Giants... I got the Niners guaranteed... and I got the Seahawks against the F-word Ravens frauds.

The parlay lost. The Giants lost to the Cardinals and the Seahawks lost to the Ravens. The Ravens were also definitively not frauds (14-2).

Kirk Cousins will have a typical 'bad' game against the Lions with one TD and two INTs

This feels to me like a Cousins one touchdown to two interceptions game, maybe get Adam Thielen killed on a cross route... a very hilarious fumble six.

Cousins actually had an elite game, throwing for 337 yards and 4 touchdowns with 0 interceptions in a win over Detroit.

Pete Carroll is the number one 'Dap' coach in the NFL

Number one dap coach would be, I think it's Pete Carroll... I don't think he's ever missed when he's like that.

Subjective take based on cultural 'dap' ability.

LeBron James only defended China to protect his Space Jam 2 ticket sales

LeBron is so transparent that he only wanted to say nice things about China because he wants to sell his stupid movie Space Jam 2. Space Jam 1 is better.

LeBron's business ties to China and the upcoming Space Jam 2 release were widely cited by critics as the reason for his stance.

Only the reigning World Series champions should be allowed to wear pinstripes

Pinstripes have become too prominent in baseball. Nine teams wear pinstripes and it sucks... Only the team that wins the World Series gets pinstripes for the entire next year. You have to beat the man to be the man and get the stripes.

This is a proposed rule change, inherently subjective.
