A unified hatred of being a Browns fan is the only thing that can pull the nation together

The most healing thing might be to sit down and all watch the Browns because we're all experiencing relief that at least we're not Browns fans. That is the one thing that can pull our nation together, our unified hatred of potentially being a Browns fan.

The Browns went 1-15 in 2016 and 0-16 in 2017, making them a very effective unifying object of pity/disbelief.

LeBron James is due to get busted for steroids at any time

And LeBron's due to get busted for steroids any time now.

LeBron James has never tested positive for steroids in his NBA career.

Barack Obama would be an electric Sunday Night Football announcer

I think he [Obama] would make a good Sunday night football announcer. You team him up with Peyton Manning. I think he'd be electric in the booth.

While subjective, Obama has since become a successful media producer and podcast host, proving he has the personality for it, though he never announced SNF.

Donald Cerrone is a strong betting value against Kelvin Gastelum

I got to say I see value on the Cerrone side. He's been unstoppable as a welterweight... To me, a guy like Donald Cerrone, who you know brings it the way he does in that minus 155 range... would be appetizing to some betters.

This fight was actually pulled from UFC 205 because Gastelum failed to make weight and didn't even attempt to step on the scale.

Tyron Woodley is a live underdog against Stephen Thompson

Tyron Woodley can do it all, and he's going to have to wrestle... he does have the bigger power shot. So to me, plus 166, plus 170... I think there's a little value there... don't sleep on Tyron Woodley. I think he's a live dog.

The fight ended in a majority draw. Woodley was very much 'live' as he nearly finished Thompson, but since it wasn't a win, 'live dog' is partially correct in spirit as he retained the title.

Conor McGregor has a great chance to knock out Eddie Alvarez in the first round

I think there's a great chance Conor McGregor gets [Eddie Alvarez] out of there in the first round, to be honest with you. Connor's that specialist striker... Connor's left hand is no joke man and i don't know i think he lands and he finds it

McGregor did dominate and finish Alvarez, though it happened in the 2nd round (TKO), not the 1st.

Tim Tebow only quit football because of the NFL's crackdown on Adderall

So the NFL starts suspending players for taking Adderall, and Tim Tebow quits football entirely to go to baseball. I think he's just on Adderall all the time... we think Tim Tebow's thing is he is just straight up on copious amounts of Adderall all the time. Because he keeps changing. I'm going to be a football player... then I'm going to be on ESPN... then I'm going to play baseball.

Fact ClaimFootballHotSarcastic
There is no evidence Tim Tebow has ever used Adderall or that it influenced his career transitions.

Calling Ryan Tannehill a game manager is a huge compliment

Ryan Tannehill, if you walk up to Ryan Tannehill, I'm like, hey, Ryan. Your game manager, he's got to say thank you, right? Yep. Absolutely. That's a great, great thing to be for Ryan Tannehill at this point in his career.

Subjective, but Tannehill eventually found success in Tennessee as exactly that—an efficient game manager behind a strong run game.

The Jaguars +1.5 will cover against the Texans

I like the Jaguars plus one and a half.

The Texans beat the Jaguars 24-21. The Jaguars failed to cover +1.5.

The Steelers will win by two touchdowns against the Cowboys if they have any pride

That Steelers game is actually one of those. Like if the Steelers are any good and have any pride, they win by two touchdowns against the Cowboys.

The Cowboys beat the Steelers 35-30 in a classic game. The Steelers did not win by two touchdowns; they lost.
