Theo Epstein is a genius for not trading Kyle Schwarber because he knew a pandemic and 60-game season were coming

Theo Epstein is a fucking genius. He knew that we were gonna have a pandemic and then a 60-game season and that's why I didn't trade Kyle Schwarber in 2016.

Theo Epstein obviously did not predict a global pandemic four years in advance.

Boxing at the professional level is the most difficult sport in terms of coordination and stamina

Boxing on top. Yeah. Agreed. Because you could suck at all these sports pretty easily true. But some sports are more difficult to suck at... Boxing at the highest level, I think is the hardest difficulty in terms of everything that's involved: hand-eye coordination, fast-twitch muscles, stamina.

The difficulty of a sport is inherently subjective, though boxing consistently ranks high in sports science studies.

Hitting a baseball is the hardest single thing to do in all of sports

Hitting a round ball going a hundred miles an hour feels like it's harder than hitting a tennis ball with the racket. You always hear... the hardest thing to do in sports is to hit a baseball. I've heard it enough that I believe it.

While widely cited by sports legends like Ted Williams, 'hardest' remains a subjective metric.

It is easier to make the US Olympic handball team than it is to bowl a 300 game

What's harder to do: roll a 300 or make the US Olympic team handball team? Absolutely make the US Olympic handball team is easier than rolling a 300.

Hot TakeMediaHotSarcastic
Rolling a 300 is a feat of precision achieved by thousands of amateurs; making an Olympic team requires being among the best in the nation, regardless of the sport's popularity.

Tom Brady is on the hot seat for leading workouts during the COVID-19 spike

Tom Brady is on the hot seat... despite the NFLPA advising that players should not work out together, Tom Brady led another Bucks workout this morning. Wow, in a state where coronavirus cases are spiking. He had nine players working out together.

Brady did indeed lead these workouts despite the controversy and warnings from the NFLPA.

Ben Roethlisberger's porn addiction admission is a genius move to distract from his real past

This was genius by him. Of course everything that he does is genius, right? Be like, I'm not talking about my real past. I'm talking about my porn. And yes, this is the androstenedione in the locker for Mark McGwire that Roethlisberger's bringing.

Hot TakeFootballHotSarcastic
The take is satirical, but Roethlisberger did publicly claim he had a porn addiction during a conference speech in June 2020.

The Popeyes chicken sandwich is better than Chick-fil-A

I think the Popeye's is better. Yes, it's a little bit bigger, it's a little crunchier. Popeyes is better but Popeyes also will set you back a little.

This is a subjective matter of taste.

The Falcons will win 12 games in the 2020 season

I'll get roasted for it, but I'm going to say we're going to win 12 games.

The 2020 Falcons finished the season with a 4-12 record, far short of the 12-win prediction.

I currently consider myself the best quarterback in the NFC South

I think currently I'll go with myself [as the best quarterback in the NFC South].

In the 2020 season, Tom Brady won the Super Bowl and outperformed Ryan statistically in TDs and efficiency. Ryan's Falcons also finished 4-12.
