Recap
PFT CommenterThe Premier League should rebrand as the English Super League to prevent future breakaways
If the Premier League is smart, they'll just rebrand as the English Super League. And then nobody can ever cuck them out of that again.
Big CatAmerica deserves all the credit for killing the European Super League
In order to kill something so evil as the Super League, you have to create it. So shouldn't Americans get credit for creating something that the world can get behind and [kill]? We did this. We created and killed it, so we deserve all the credit. Specifically this show and generally America.
PFT CommenterEuropean billionaires will try to create a Super League again in two years
When this was all put to bed so quickly, they're going to try this again in two years. They're going to learn from what happened this time, and they're going to do it in the dead of night.
PFT CommenterKevin Durant is the new official Mayor of Twitter
I'm removing the mayor of Twitter handle title from Chrissy Teigen, giving it to Kevin Durant... Kevin Durant actually engages with everybody online. And he engages with every single Twitter development... He is the official mayor of Twitter, as far as I'm concerned.
PFT CommenterSteph Curry should be the 2021 NBA MVP
Steph for MVP. Do it. I think Steph Curry should be the most valuable player of the league. You cannot tell the story of the NBA in the year 2021 without mentioning Steph Curry.
Big CatThe Dodgers are significantly overvalued by bettors and oddsmakers
Dodgers have been favored in 96 straight games dating back to 2019 season finale versus the Nationals. They've been favored in 134 of the last 136 games. That's stupid. That actually is not respect the Dodgers. It means that people respect the Dodgers too much. Way too much. That tells me that they're overvalued.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
PFT CommenterI will start watching the show 'Dave' by next Wednesday
By the time I speak to you on next Wednesday's show, within the next week, I will have started Dave. That's my resolution... I'm going to be able to fulfill on two out of those three [goals] already and three out of three by next week.
Big CatCriticizing the cartoon 'Bluey' for a lack of human diversity is stupid
Kids cartoon Bluey criticized for not having disabled, queer, poor, gender diverse or dogs of color. It's dogs. It's a show about cartoon dogs... none of us were [represented] because we're not dogs. It's a show about dogs. Cartoon fake dogs.
Big CatThe NFL will change the 'one-shell' helmet rule in the next two years
I think the NFL in the next two years, I'm going to call my shot, is going to change the one-shell-only rule so that there can be multiple different helmets all year long, and it's going to be sick.
Billy FootballI could break the underwater bench press record
The underwater bench press record was broken... repped it out 77 times, beating the previous record of 62 times. Only 110 pounds... it's more of just a holding your breath thing. So I'm kind of, you know, in the back of my head, I'm like, I could do that. I could break that record.
Interview
Julian EdelmanI can tell if a player can actually play just by looking them in the eyes in the huddle
Let me look a guy in the eyes and I'll tell you if he can play or not. That's what it is. It's in the huddle. When you're in a huddle, there's false eyes and there's not. You need to be able to look a dude in his eyes and really see if that guy, if he's ready for when it's going to come.
Julian EdelmanBelichick disciples fail as head coaches because they try to act like Bill without having his experience
It's hard to go in and and and try to be Bill Belichick without being Bill Belichick. You know you can't just go in and demand the respect and put like this crazy work schedule... you can't just go and try to copy what he does. It's not going to be you. A lot of these guys, they go in, they try to be a hard dick or they try to be this... I don't think you can just go and demand a team like you're Bill Belichick, unless you're Bill Belichick.
Faq
Big CatPodcast rankings are misleading; people should check episode rankings for true listener stats
How come some podcasts randomly go higher than you guys in the podcast ranking sometimes? Does that mean they get more listeners? No, it does not. So if you start a new podcast, your podcast is always going to be... It just goes to number one. That's just how it works. The way to realize the success of shows is episodes. So if you go to the episode page, you can see where shows are ranked. Just look at the episodes, bitch.
