A $60 million fine will not teach Dan Snyder or other NFL owners a lesson

[Dan Snyder] is paying a 60 million fine on his way out the door... which hilariously reduces the value of the team to 5.9 billion. So that'll teach him a lesson. He only made 5.1 billion profit off this sale. So owners will think twice before fooling around with the books.

Snyder was fined $60 million following the Mary Jo White investigation, but he did indeed profit billions on the sale, making the fine negligible in the grand scheme.

The Colts' new 'Indiana Nights' uniforms are the ugliest in the NFL

The Colts' new uniforms today... it's hard to fuck up a uniform release. The Colts did it. They are the ugliest uniforms. I mean, good try guys, but they look like cops.

While subjective, the uniforms were widely mocked on social media for looking like high school or 'Duke' uniforms.

I love golf courses that make pro golfers look as unathletic as regular people

I just love a course that makes everyone look at moments like they're us out there. Wyndham Clark had one of the most unathletic swings I've ever seen in my life... I bravo. Good job [Royal Liverpool].

Subjective appreciation of course difficulty.

Offensive line culture requires 'weird fat guy' behavior to build a good team

Offensive linemen just have a different culture... you need weird fat guy shit to make your team good.

The value of 'hazing' or 'weird' culture in team building is a highly debated and increasingly condemned practice in modern sports.

Modern fans don't care about Marshall Faulk because he is overshadowed by better players

Marshall Faulk was not a—no one gives a fuck about Marshall Faulk. I'm sorry. Besides you guys. His name gets overshadowed by like, so much better players. If you throw a Christian McCaffrey in there, that's more of a spike for like modern fans.

Statistically, Marshall Faulk is a Hall of Famer with production levels McCaffrey hadn't reached at that point. The claim that 'no one cares' is a classic Billy provocation.

Who even remembers Johnny Unitas anymore?

Does anyone remember Johnny Unitas? They do but like, not as a great... Who the fuck's Johnny Unitas?

Johnny Unitas is widely considered one of the greatest QBs ever and revolutionized the passing game. He is very much remembered.

Lasting 30 minutes in bed would result in at least three different injuries for me

Half hour? Honestly sounds like too much work. That's a—sounds like at least three injuries for me. That's a groin, an ankle, and maybe like a back. Just give me good 10 minutes.

Self-deprecating personal health claim.

Dirt bikes are the only effective way to escape Los Angeles when society collapses

If something goes sideways in LA and there's riots in the streets... you only have the freeways out and those can lock down quickly. So how do you get out? Well, dirt bikes. Dirt bikes is the answer.

In a total gridlock scenario, a motorcycle or dirt bike is objectively the only vehicle capable of navigating between lanes and off-road.

The Vikings' current O'Connell and Flores regime is capable of winning a Super Bowl

I feel like O'Connell's got the goods, our head coach. Flores, I think, I feel like this is, this is the regime that could do it [win a Super Bowl].

The Vikings went 7-10 in 2023 and did not win the Super Bowl. They missed the playoffs.

Staying in an ADA-compliant apartment as an able-bodied person is selfish

I'm just uncomfortable staying here [in an ADA-compliant apartment] where someone else who might need it more [could live]... I view it in the perspective like PFT said, I'm taking the space right now of someone who needs it more.

Morality-based opinion.
