Recap
Big CatThe new XFL is probably going to suck
I'll give you – it's going to suck. We all agree, right? It's probably going to suck. It's going to be shitty football. The problem with... The XFL is this weird thing.
Big CatThe XFL will force the NFL to adapt and implement things that make the NFL better
But here's what it will do, is it's going to force the NFL to actually implement some things that make the NFL better. Because like Skycam, the XFL is going to do one or two things right, and the NFL is going to have to adapt and implement those things.
PFT CommenterJerry Jones may have helped fund the XFL to screw over Roger Goodell
So it wouldn't shock me if Mr. Shadow Commissioner Jerry Jones maybe helped to fund the start of the NFL, gave him some of the seed money just to fuck Roger Goodell over.
Big CatPlayers should be able to fight one fan per year
I would like to see them implement my longstanding idea that players should be able to fight fans. One fight a year. You get to fight any fan that mouths off to you. You get to go in there and beat their fucking ass. And if you lose that fight, you have to give your salary to the fan.
Big CatTeam LeBron is much better than Team Steph for the All-Star game
Team LeBron is way better than Team Steph. Yes. Yeah, this should be a blowout. I don't understand what Steph was doing, too.
PFT CommenterMarkelle Fultz is the first basketball player to ever have the yips
He's got the yips. He's the first basketball player to ever have the yips. I don't know. What happened? But I do know that I'm addicted to watching Markelle Fultz free throw videos.
Picks
PFT CommenterJosh Allen will be out of the NFL by 2020
My number one overall pick in the XFL draft is Josh Allen. Quarterback Wyoming... And he won't be in the league [NFL] by 2020.
Interview
Fred SmootAaron Rodgers is the hardest quarterback to play against regardless of his receivers
If you got Aaron Rodgers throwing to you, I don't care what the last name on the back of the receiver's jersey is, Aaron is going to put the ball in places I can't get it. He's going to throw his out routes out of bounds. He's going to throw his fade routes at the back of my head.
Fred SmootI would be perfect in today's NFL because of the rule changes
Oh, I would love it. It would basically fit me perfect. I was a true cover guy... when you're playing in the NFL, hitting somebody, really crushing them is a sin. So I'm perfect in this NFL. I'm going to go out here and I'm going to intercept balls and I'm going to play football.
Isaac BruceNFL players could successfully perform on a plant-based diet
Absolutely. I think it would really help them. I think it'll transform them back to their rookie second season, third season type feel. And, you know, we're always looking for edge. And anytime you can attain more energy, or perform at the same level as you did in the first quarter, as you do in the fourth quarter, I think guys would really benefit from it.
Isaac BruceThe Patriots filmed the Rams Super Bowl walkthrough
Off the record. [Big Cat: Did the Patriots film your walkthrough at the Super Bowl?] Yes. I'll say yes. And I think it gave him an edge as well. I mean, you know, we were really rolling that year, and no one covered us... TMZ never came out with that tape. You never saw that tape. [But] he [Terrell Buckley] was beating us to spots and he hadn't been there that long and he was on the street.
Explain It To Hank
Big CatKirk Cousins is not a franchise quarterback because he grills steaks in aluminum foil boats
He was grilling steaks on his grill, outdoor grill, with aluminum foil boats. That right there, red flag. Not a franchise quarterback. What the fuck are you doing, dude? ... It sounds like maybe he's got a dirty grill. Just scrape that shit up, Kurt.
