Sam Darnold is a top five quarterback in the NFL

Sam Darnold. Good guy. Elite quarterback elite. Elite, elite. Top five. [Big Cat: Gimme your top five.] Drake Maye. Sam Darnold. Josh Allen, Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels.

The ranking of Sam Darnold as a top 5 QB is highly subjective and generally considered incorrect by consensus, despite any recent Super Bowl success mentioned.

Triple Double Cocaine Bear is the greatest nickname in sports history

The best part, in my opinion, was the nickname that [Kevin Durant] gave to Westbrook. Called him Triple Double Cocaine Bear, which is the best nickname that I've ever heard.

Whether it's the 'best' nickname is entirely a matter of opinion.

NBA owners should be forced to sell their team if they win fewer than 20 games for three straight years

What they need to do for all sports is if you don't reach a certain level of win percentage in consecutive years, you have to sell the team. Which that would be awesome too. If you win less than 20 games in the NBA for three years straight, you should have to sell the team.

This is a hypothetical policy proposal and cannot be proven right or wrong.

Canada is cheating at curling to compensate for a decade-long gold medal drought

The hog line... you're not allowed to touch the stone past the hog line... There's a sensor on the handle. So if you're holding the handle past the hog line, there will be a sensor that goes off. That's why [the Canadian player] is touching the granite because there's no sensor on the granite. And apparently everyone knew that Canada was cheating... Canada cheats... I guess Canada hasn't won a gold in like 10 years too and this is supposed to be their sport.

The controversy did occur during the 2026 Winter Olympics involving finger placement on the stones.

Basketball should be moved to the Winter Olympics to give fans something to care about

I feel like the basketball should be a winter Olympic sport. It should just to get us another gold. It should give us something to care about during the Winter Olympics. 'Cause right now we got hockey and that's pretty much it.

This is a suggestion for a scheduling change and is purely subjective.

I have bet on Florida (19-1), UConn (15-1), and Wisconsin (150-1) to win the national championship

I did make some future bets. I tweeted out when I made them. But I bet Florida 19 to one, Yukon 15 to one and the Badgers at 150 to one.

He either placed the bets or he didn't; the outcome of the tournament will determine if the tickets cash.

Jets owner Woody Johnson is a failure who needs to go

Woody Johnson just, you know, he's gotta go... He's in the [Epstein] files. Yeah, he's in them... Everything they do is lose so you gotta take stuff away.

This is a fan opinion on ownership and cannot be objectively proven.

Logan Paul's $13 million Pokemon card sale is just a digital scam

I think a lot of it was digitally scamming. Not physical, not hard copy scams... it's like blockchain scam. So it's like deregulated scam.

Labeling a legal (if controversial) sale as a 'scam' is an opinion on the value of the asset and the character of the seller.

My touchdown against the Lions was the best play of the NFL season

It was the best play of the year. NFL Honor, you should definitely acknowledge that... I turned around, I gave him a little do, do, you know what I'm saying? That little one, two, I put 'em in the dirt and I finished. Put a nice skin roll.

Determining the 'best play' of a season is purely subjective.

I will play twelve more years of professional football

I would love to play 12 more years. And that's just 12. [Big Cat: Wait, 12 more years, or 12 total?] 12 more years. I'm gonna be on 12 this year... I would love to. I'm halfway. In terms of my arm, it is just... I'm blessed... I'm gonna play 24 years.

This is a long-term career prediction that will take over a decade to resolve.

Devon Witherspoon is one of the best defensive players in the NFL

One person that a lot of people not going to talk about, but I feel like he's like low key. One of the best defensive players in the league is Devon Witherspoon. Spoon is, he is the heart and soul of that Seattle Seahawks defense. Like he is coordinating everything back there. He doesn't miss tackles, he makes plays on the ball. Like he is a true football player out there, man. And he definitely deserves a nine nine on defense [in Madden].

The ranking of a player among the 'best' is a matter of opinion.

I am quitting nicotine pouches cold turkey

I just quit pouches. Quit decided fuck nicotine pouches. I'm out on nicotine pouches. I'm out on all nicotine... about two full days, two and a half days off. It's not easy... My resolution is that I'm just gonna smoke cigarettes... The only time I'm allowed to have nicotine is if I'm smoking an actual cigarette... I'm out, I'm just gonna go cold turkey.

Only PFT knows if he stays off the pouches.
