Recap
Big CatCeltics fans have no right to complain about trading draft picks for Kyrie Irving
I don't understand Celtics fans that have been bitching and moaning about Danny Ainge not trading picks... and then when he does trade it, being like, well, we should have held on to that pick. Because you just got a guy who is [a] top five scorer in the NBA, a guy who can score in the finals of the NBA finals.
Big CatLeBron James will still leave the Cavaliers after the 2017-18 season
It does make a lot of drama, and I still do think LeBron is leaving. Although now it's sourced material from our friend Ryan Russell says LeBron doesn't know what to do because he hasn't decided if he hates Isaiah Thomas yet or not.
PFT CommenterJon Jones is addicted to steroids
I think Jon Jones, it's an understatement to say it, but I think he just really likes drugs. He's addicted to steroids. He's got an addictive [personality]... He's the only person on earth that's addicted to PEDs.
Big CatFloyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor will have one billion pay-per-view buys
Sal Pal said there's gonna be 1 billion pay-per-view buys... One million [sic - meant billion]. People even said, like, hey, Sal, I think you got your stats wrong. He's like, nope. One billion pay-per-view buys.
PFT CommenterConor McGregor will lose to Floyd Mayweather by doing something illegal during the fight
I'm gonna put money on McGregor because... he's in the mood for pikey justice. And he's gonna do something... McGregor's going to take him out illegally and then lose the fight. But then he's gonna have all his money spread out and bet on Mayweather to win.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
PFT CommenterThe Washington Nationals have a 100% chance of making the NLDS
The Nationals are officially Gucci... The Sabermetrics came out, and they have a 100% chance of making the [NLDS]. I don't know how they can calculate that just yet, but I'm not very smart.
Mount Rushmore
Big CatThe Wisconsin Badgers will never win a national title in football or basketball
Wisconsin ever winning a national title in anything... Basketball and football, yeah. So that one, that chip failed the night [of] the Duke game [in 2015]. I actually said it... I was like, that's it. We're never coming back... It's never happening.
Interview
Matthew BerryOdell Beckham Jr. is the second-best fantasy receiver for 2017 as long as he stays off boats
At the moment, I have Beckham at two [in wide receiver rankings]... As long as he stays off boats... He saves it for the postseason, which we don't care about in fantasy.
Matthew BerryFantasy football leagues should not have a trade veto unless there is proof of collusion
Veto guy is on my Mount Rushmore. Guy who just vetoes everything. To me, unless you can prove collusion, there should be no veto in [fantasy football].
Matthew BerryIsaiah Crowell will have a huge fantasy season in 2017
I actually like two Browns... Isaiah Crowell is going to have a huge year.
