Villanova is a basketball death squad

Villanova is a fucking death squad of a basketball team. There was a moment... when Michigan was up... and then Dante DiVincenzo showed up and basically... it's like that's it for Michigan. I'll tell you, you've never seen a team be up so fast so early and then know the instant the game was over even though it was still a tie game.

Villanova won the 2018 title decisively, 79-62.

Jalen Brunson will not be a star in the NBA and will likely be a second-round pick

I still think Jalen Brunson is not going to be a star in the NBA. He probably is a second-round pick.

While he was a second-round pick (33rd overall), Brunson became a massive NBA star for the Mavericks and Knicks.

The Patriots will draft Donte DiVincenzo with the 31st pick

I think DiVincenzo's still going to be on the draft board when the Patriots pick at 31. Yes, so he might get snatched up.

DiVincenzo was drafted 17th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA draft, and the Patriots (NFL) obviously did not draft him.

Rob Gronkowski is increasingly likely to be traded because he's tired of Bill Belichick

The report is that the Patriots, the chances of them trading Rob Gronkowski are increasing because Gronk is tired of the... mental fatigue and physical anguish of playing football under Bill Belichick. ... I think the Gronkowski thing is real. ... Rob Gronkowski, he wants to have fun.

Gronk stayed with the Patriots through the 2018 season, won a Super Bowl, retired, and was only traded to Tampa Bay in 2020 after un-retiring.

Tom Brady would lose his shit if the Patriots traded Rob Gronkowski

If he loses Gronk, Brady can't be far behind. If they were to trade Gronk, I think Brady would lose his shit.

Brady eventually left New England in 2020 and immediately recruited Gronk to join him in Tampa, proving how vital their partnership was.

The Oakland A's low attendance signifies that baseball is dwindling away

My hot seat is the Oakland A's and baseball in general. Oakland A's only managed to draw 7,000 people for their game against the Rangers last night. ... I mean, baseball, another sign. Baseball's dwindling away.

The A's did have historically low attendance during this period, though baseball as a whole remains a multi-billion dollar industry.

Drew Brees will have to play for several more years because he lost $8 million to a fraud jeweler

My cool throne is the New Orleans Saints. ... They're on my cool throne because Drew Brees is going to have to play for another couple years. Because it turns out he lost $8 million to a fraud jeweler.

Brees did sue a jeweler for overvaluation of diamonds and played through the 2020 season (three more years).

The Yodeling Walmart Boy will eventually be found to be problematic

The yodeling Walmart boy. At some point, he's going to be problematic, right? ... I've seen this story play out on the internet enough. Someone in his family has a Confederate flag Facebook profile, and everyone's going to turn on him and be like, man, this kid is problematic.

Mason Ramsey (the Yodeling Boy) largely avoided scandals and had a successful niche country music career.

Villanova has officially earned its seat at the table as a college basketball blue blood

Villanova is now getting called a blue blood. So maybe one less seat at the table. You can't only have so many blue bloods. Are we going to shuffle someone out? I don't know.

Villanova's sustained success under Jay Wright made this a widely debated and often accepted take in sports media.

Josh Rosen's intelligence and outside interests are red flags for NFL teams

I think a red flag has been brought up for Josh Rosen that he's too smart and that he cares too much about things besides football. ... Teams should send scouts to the UCLA library and hang out there, see how many times Josh Rosen comes in... if you're reading more history books than your playbook, then it's going to be a real issue.

OpinionFootballMediumSarcastic
Rosen's draft stock did slip, and his NFL career was notoriously short-lived, with 'personality fit' often cited by analysts.

If you want bigger arms, you should focus on your triceps instead of your biceps

If you want bigger arms first, I would focus on triceps because they're a bigger, meatier muscle. And you probably will do, like, more pressing movement, so you'll get bigger everything kind of.

This is a standard anatomical fact in bodybuilding; the triceps brachii comprises about two-thirds of the upper arm's mass.

Donte DiVincenzo's old tweets aren't problematic because he was only 13

Dante DiVincenzo... some of the tweets are deemed problematic. Now, I want to make it very clear. I don't think any of these are problematic. ... It's also a 13-year-old that, like, is stupid. And if you remember when you were 13, you were a dumb fuck, too.

A matter of opinion regarding social standards and maturity.

Being the Little Spoon is the superior position because every guy just wants to be cuddled sometimes

Because being Little Spoon is awesome. ... Every now and then, a guy just wants to be cuddled. A guy just wants to feel like the world is a safe place.

Subjective relationship preference.
