The day Dan Snyder sells the Commanders will be the best day of my sports life

Washington Capital Stanley Cup is day number one of my sports life Nationals, nationals World Series, probably number two. And then I would put Dan Snyder selling the team. No... I'm gonna put this number one. I think this is a better day because it opens up the entire future of my football fandom.

The sale did eventually go through to the Josh Harris group in July 2023.

The Washington Commanders should temporarily revert to 'Washington Football Team' before rebranding as the 'Hogs'

I hope that Josh Harris... they buy the team. And I hope they're like, you know what? This name sucks. The commander sucks. Nobody cares about it. Hogs. And then I hope they say, okay, we need a year to figure out what the end name of the team's gonna be. So we're gonna go back to the football team for a year. And then the year after that, they announced the new team name. Hogs would be great.

As of late 2024, the team is still the Commanders, though the new ownership has not ruled out a future name change.

Mike McCarthy's body is composed of 90% fart

I said that he [Mike McCarthy] he's 90% fart in that picture. Yeah. His body's just composed the fart. ... if you took, if you did the 23 and me test, it'd be like 10% Irish, 90% fart.

I am fading the Oakland A's every single game this year

I think I'm gonna fade the As. Okay. All year long. So it's gonna be a combo, a parlay be of the under and taking the as. I think it's either to lose money line or, or lose by one and a half. I like it runs. I like it. I feel like the A's are gonna win 42 games this year. Ooh. Maybe less.

The A's won 50 games, which is more than the 42 predicted, but the 'fading them all year' strategy would have been highly profitable.

The Philadelphia 76ers are currently in a complete free fall

My hot seat is the Philadelphia 76ERs. They're in a complete, complete free fall. Lost four outta the last five they played. Yoic. Everyone's talking about Embiid versus Yoic for mvp. MBI wasn't even man enough to play. James Harden also didn't play kind of a bullshit excuse like calf soreness.

The Sixers ended the season as the 3-seed and won their first-round series, but they eventually flamed out in the second round.

The Timberwolves are a solid bet to win the NBA championship at +15,000

I put a future on the Timberwolves. Ooh. 15 plus 15,000 Whoa. On these guys and they beat the Kings. ... No, I'm saying they win two series, then you can hedge out and make a shitload of money. ... All of a sudden I'm sitting on a gold mine over here.

The Timberwolves lost in the first round of the 2023 playoffs to the Denver Nuggets.

The Ravens management has completely disrespected and mishandled Lamar Jackson

Steve Bisciotti and Eric DeCosta have fucked the city of Baltimore in its ass. That's where I would like to start. The fucking treatment of Lamar Jackson is inexcusable. How the fuck are we gonna lose Lamar over Nothing. ... It's like a fucking fat guy with a little ass dick who's got a hot girlfriend. We lucked into Lamar... and then we just fucking have taken him for granted.

Jackson eventually re-signed for a then-record $260 million, suggesting the relationship was reparable despite Stavros's doom.

Lamar Jackson deserves the same fully guaranteed contract as Bradley Beal

The most valuable position, in the most valuable fucking league. And they're like, oh, because of an accounting issue, we can't pay these guys guaranteed money. ... A fucking MVP quarterback should be able to get the same contract as fucking Bradley Beal. He literally wants Bradley Beal's contract. Five for two 50. That's, are you kidding me? What the fuck are we talking about?

Lamar eventually got $185M guaranteed at signing, not the full $260M guarantee he was allegedly seeking.

If Bill Belichick gets Lamar Jackson, the Patriots will win a Super Bowl

If he goes to the fucking Patriots, they will win his Super Bowl. They win. ... You take a guy who's been completely underutilized... and you put him with the Patriots, who now fucking Bill Belichick has something to prove. ... Belichick has that horse cock. That's why the Broncos wanted it.

Lamar never went to the Patriots; he stayed with Baltimore.

The Celtics will not win a championship because Joe Mazzulla is too religious

The Celtics can suck my dick. I think ever since Joe Mazzulla... do you see where he, when the fucking, the Queen of England or whatever, or the prince came to visit? They asked about that and he was like, I, I thought the only royal family was Jesus, Mary and Joseph. And I was like, all right, they're gonna lose. No fucking bitch ass nerd who says something like that is winning a fucking championship.

The Celtics did not win in 2023 (they lost in the ECF), but Mazzulla went on to win the championship in 2024.

Most remote workers only do about five to six hours of actual hard work per week

The working from home is like you only do half the work. You just basically fuck around all day and then... you can get your job done in like five to six hours of really hard work. That's just a fact. That's how America was built. ... You spent four hours on browsers, you played a bunch of SNES and Yeah. You just dicked around and looked at your fantasy team for 50% of the work week.

This is subjective, but productivity studies on remote work are highly debated and varied.
