Nick Saban was secretly relieved to lose the National Championship because it provides bulletin board material

I think that there's like a small part of Nick Saban that was kind of relieved that he lost. That was like more rat poison. He's happy that he lost because now he's got all sorts of bulletin board material for next year.

While Saban uses losses as motivation, it's highly unlikely he was 'happy' or 'relieved' to lose a title.

Kirby Smart is sneaky athletic and could probably dunk a basketball

He probably has like a 30 inch vertical leap... I think Kirby sneaky athletic. I think he can get rim.

There is no video evidence of Kirby Smart dunking, but his 5'11" frame and former playing career make a 30-inch vertical plausible but unverified.

It will be a long time before another walk-on quarterback starts for a National Champion

It will be, I'll say this confidently, there'll be a long time before we see a walk-on be the starting quarterback for a national champion again. That was the first walk on or former walk-on who beat Nick Saban since 1997.

Bennett won again the following year, but as a returning starter. Since then, no true walk-on has won.

NFL owners are generally idiots with the same IQ level as a dumb coworker

The person that owns your favorite team is a pretty big idiot. Just like the sooner you come to terms with that, the better they're just they're morons. Like everybody else, like think of the dumbest people that you work with that is typically about the same IQ level as an NFL owner.

This is an inherently subjective opinion about intelligence and competence.

Ted Phillips is the root of the Bears' problems and uses the Arlington Heights move to avoid being fired

The only way the bears can be fixed is Ted Phillips has to go... he's obviously in charge of the Arlington Heights land purchase. And I think that will never happen because Ted Phillips knows, as long as they're still negotiating it, he will still have a job.

Ted Phillips eventually retired in 2023. The Arlington Heights project remains in progress, validating the idea that it was a long-term shield.

Joe Judge staying with the Giants makes him a 'human shield' for the new GM

For a GM, [the Giants job] is absolutely [attractive] because you do have some draft picks this year... and then you have the perfect scapegoat and Joe judge, nobody expects anything out of Joe judge next year, right? Human shield. Yes. You need a human shield.

The Giants actually fired Joe Judge on Jan 11, 2022, right as this episode was dropping (the show acknowledges they recorded before he was fired).

The Seahawks should bring back Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson because they are better than 80% of the league

The Seahawks will be so smart to just bring Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson back... You're better with these two guys than like 80% of the [NFL].

The Seahawks traded Wilson to Denver in March 2022. They kept Carroll and actually made the playoffs with Geno Smith, arguably proving they were okay without Wilson.

Andrew Luck looks extremely happy and appears to have zero interest in returning to football

Andrew luck shows up out of nowhere... and he looked like he's lost about 70 pounds. My God, I actually don't think that Andrew luck has picked up a football in the last three years. And he looks really happy.

Luck has remained retired and has since spoken about his happiness post-football, confirming this observation.

James Gunn maintains a 'no asshole' rule on his film sets

[James Gunn] also has a no asshole [rule]. And he puts together teams of people who there's not a bad apple in the bunch... I knew I was going to be surrounded by good people.

This is a frequently cited policy by James Gunn and his regular cast members in multiple interviews.

Getting in shape requires a consistent lifestyle change rather than a temporary diet

The tips are easy. The application is hard. Make good choices and be consistent. And that's absolutely it. Don't make it a January diet, make it a lifestyle change, make good choices and be consistent.

This is widely accepted medical and fitness advice.

The Steelers will beat the Chiefs in the playoffs because Kansas City is due for a bad game

I really think the Steelers could beat the chiefs... the chiefs are due for a bad game, man. They really are just due for one... I wouldn't be surprised [if they win] because they're due.

The Chiefs beat the Steelers 42-21 on January 16, 2022.

TJ Watt is definitively the best defensive player in football

For anybody who's been watching the NFL this year or the past three years... the best defensive player in football has been TJ watt. It's a fact.

TJ Watt won the 2021 NFL Defensive Player of the Year award, tying the single-season sack record.

The NFL is rigged for ratings and views

How somehow some way, and the fourth quarter... the scores magically are going to line up. If this team gets a touchdown in a two point conversion, it's like, wow, it's, it's rigged. This is rigged for ratings, for views.

There is no verifiable evidence that the NFL rigs game outcomes for ratings.
