Intro
Big CatThe winning score at the 2016 U.S. Open will be plus 25
I heard the winning score is going to be like plus 25. Doesn't matter with DraftKings it will be fun the triple bogeys will be exhilarating.
Recap
Big CatKyrie Irving's Game 5 performance was more impressive than Steph Curry's typical hot streaks
This is a hot take that I actually think is correct. What Kyrie did game five was more impressive than like when Steph Curry goes off. Because when Steph Curry goes off, he hits a lot of threes... Kyrie was hitting everything. He was hitting floaters. He was hitting jumpers. He was going to the rim.
Big CatDraymond Green was secretly rooting against the Warriors in Game 5 so he wouldn't miss the clinching moment
I think Draymond was probably rooting against the Warriors I don't think that's that crazy... Draymond is the kind of guy that he's a little bit more out there emotionally. He's the kind of guy that might feel slighted if he's not part of that winning moment.
Interview
Joe BuckI officially hate the New Orleans Saints and will root against them on broadcasts
Joe Buck now hates the Saints... I think we should go on record and at least have one that I actually can't stand. And I'm just over the top rooting against. And whoever they're playing that week, I will refer to as we.
Joe BuckI would stand by my criticism of Randy Moss's mooning celebration even today
I would probably say the same thing again. it would be weak of me to say, yeah, I was a little bit too harsh and poor Randy... I thought it was over the top and ridiculous. Maybe my Midwestern roots came out. But believe me, I'm not scared. And if somebody doesn't like what I say or how I say it... I really don't give a shit anymore.
Joe BuckDez Bryant caught the ball against the Packers in the playoffs
I was in the minority on that one. I thought that was a catch. And I think if Dez Bryant and Lambeau is not within a yard of the end zone, it's not an issue. But because he was and he was reaching for the touchdown, to me, that's what caused the ball to pop out.
Hurt Or Injured
PFT CommenterPregnancy is not an injury for a man; it is just being 'hurt'
I'm going to say that pregnancy is not an injury. A man's wife being pregnant is not an injury to the guy. It's a hurt to the guy... Pregnancy is technically a sexually transmitted disease. I think we all remember that from middle school health class.
Sabermetrics
PFT CommenterIchiro's hits in Japan should not count toward his career total vs. Pete Rose
Sabermetrically speaking, do hits in Japan count the same as Major League Baseball hits? I would say no... Those hits don't count in the United States. Neither should Ichiro's.
Uhhh Ya Think
PFT CommenterThe NBA suspended Draymond Green specifically to extend the Finals for ratings
Former NBA referee Tim Donaghy says that the NBA suspended Draymond Green to try to extend the series to get higher ratings and more money. You think? No, duh.
Big CatDavid Stern is still secretly pulling the strings of the NBA behind the scenes
Adam Silver's not. Adam Silver cleaned up the league... Meanwhile David Stern is behind the scenes suspending Draymond Green and getting these ratings... he's the master puppet and I love it.
