The Rams have a better roster in almost every spot, but Joe Burrow is good enough to win Super Bowl LVI

The Rams are probably better in pretty much every spot but Joe Burrow. And then I say, but Joe Burrow's worth the win. And that's where I'm like the Rams feel like if you did it on paper and you just did a guy off... the Rams are easily better, but Joe Burrow is Joe Burrow.

The Rams defeated the Bengals 23-20 in Super Bowl LVI. Burrow played well but the Rams' superior talent (specifically the pass rush) ultimately won.

Odell Beckham Jr. will score a touchdown in the Super Bowl if his child is born before the game

Odell Beckham Jr. looks like he's going to have his first kid in the next couple of days. If he does, you know what that means? He's scoring a touchdown, Odell Beckham to score a touchdown in the Super Bowl. MVP, maybe take a flyer for sure... he's got to be able to score the touchdown and then do the baby rocking dance with the football.

OBJ did score the first touchdown of the game, but his son was not born until four days after the Super Bowl (Feb 17).

Seeing Matthew Stafford succeed is a slap in the face to the Lions organization

Everything that they, when they say something nice about Matthew Stafford, it's such a slap in the face to the Lions. And I know that like, look, bad organizations are bad organizations... but they're like, yeah, Matthew Stafford, this is moment. He was spent so many years just on that terrible team with that terrible organization. Yes. It's like, he got out of hell. It's like, he's the first man to ever escape the devil.

Stafford won the Super Bowl in his first year away from Detroit, confirming the premise that the organization was the primary hurdle.

Mike McDaniel is the highest man in America but he will save Tua Tagovailoa

Mike McDaniel is the coach of the Dolphins now... He's going to save [Tua]. He's the highest man in America. I love him though. He is the perfect Colorado bro... he's just like, man, professionally. We are gonna, it's going to be cool. It's going to save Tua.

McDaniel has significantly improved Tua's production and efficiency, leading the Dolphins to high-powered offensive seasons in 2022 and 2023.

The Jackass crew is the peak of American culture

They are to me... I know people will say, this is like a sad statement. They're like the peak of like American culture to me. Like, I love everything about them. I think they're so fucking funny... it's like, it's genius. Everything about it is genius.

Subjective opinion on cultural value.

The world would have more in common if everyone sat down and watched Jackass together

I still to this day... I think that you could take Jackass, you could show it to ISIS and they would laugh their balls off. They would, it would actually bring the world together. If we could just have a set aside two hours where everybody in the world sits down and watch Jackass, and we'd be like, you know what? We got a lot more in common than maybe we thought.

A satirical claim about geopolitics that cannot be tested.

Jackass Forever should be nominated for an Oscar for the joy it gives the world

Give Jackass an Oscar. Yeah. There's one of Nobel peace prize. It's ridiculous that those Hollywood phoneys have not given Jackass an Oscar yet. It should at least be nominated because the amount of joy that they've given to the world, it kicks the shit out of every other director and every other comedy group. Like it's insane. The work that they put in and they've sacrificed their bodies to make us laugh.

Jackass Forever was not nominated for any Academy Awards at the 95th Oscars.

Home runs are going to increase because MLB stopped testing for steroids

My cool throne are yobbos, dingers, home runs, whatever you want to call them. Because for the first time in 20 years, Major League Baseball is stopping testing its players for steroids... I love it. Everybody use the ball and juice to go back and forth.

The testing pause was temporary during the lockout. While Aaron Judge hit 62 HRs in 2022, there wasn't a league-wide 'steroid era' spike in 2022 specifically attributable to this.

It is detrimental to your soul to root only for the Jets

I'm a Jets fan and it's, it's just impossible to only root for the Jets. It's not a possibility cause there's no, listen... it would be detrimental to your entire mindset to your person. If you just sat down and watched two quarters a day, that sounds like a punishment.

The Jets have the longest active playoff drought in major North American sports, supporting the claim of psychological harm to solo-fandom.

Tom Brady should have admitted he got lucky on the Tuck Rule in the 30 for 30

I was watching over her shoulder and Tom Brady... he's sitting on a couch with Charles Woodson. And they actually pull a football out and you can see they're talking about the Tuck Rule... why wouldn't he just say, 'Hey Charles, you know what? You're right. It was a crap call, man. It was, I'm not sure that we deserve that.' Give the satisfaction to someone else.

This is a subjective opinion on Brady's persona and the etiquette of winning controversially.

Christian McCaffrey and the Carolina Panthers are dead to me in Fantasy Football

Carolina Panthers. Nothing. Yeah. I like that. So Chris McCaffrey officially dead to you now. He is dead to me. You know? What's so funny when I auto drafted him... I said to myself, he's going to get injured... So never Carolina Panthers.

McCaffrey stayed relatively healthy in 2022 (played 17 games) and was traded to the 49ers where he won OPOY, proving he wasn't 'dead' as an asset.

Chargers fans are the 'Yacht Rock' of NFL fanbases

Chargers fans are like the yacht rock of fans. You go to that stadium? No one's in like boots, like ready to fight. No, one's like, it's like, everyone's in flip-flops everyone's high... It's literally, it's the yacht rock of NFL teams. It's such a pleasant experience. Charger fans and I it's just like, it's like a Michael McDonald song. It's just like, it's smooth, man. It's smooth.

This is a subjective but widely observed cultural stereotype of San Diego/LA Chargers home games.
