Kyler Murray is a soft football player

The story out of Glendale tonight, I think is that Kyler Murray is soft. This is soft football player. I haven't heard anybody drop the S bomb on him. I think he gets a lot of leniency because he's a short king. And I actually just think that he's a little bit soft.

The Cardinals struggled late in the 2021 season, and Murray has faced lingering criticisms about his leadership and toughness since this point.

The Braves will not win the World Series without Charlie Morton

Charlie Morton breaking his leg, unbelievable performance fact that he kept pitching... It's going to be very tough for the Braves to win this world series without their number one. And that sucks. I do not think the Braves are gonna be able to survive without Charlie Morton.

The Braves actually went on to win the 2021 World Series despite losing Charlie Morton to injury.

The Detroit Lions will beat the Philadelphia Eagles outright

I agree with you, Hank. I think the lions are going to win outright... I'm strictly viewing this game as a matchup between Dan Campbell and Nick Sirianni. And I feel like, I feel like Dan Campbell just takes a shit all over Nick Sirianni's brain.

The Eagles blew out the Lions 44-6 in this game.

The movie 'Cars 3' is better than the original 'Cars'

I'm starting to think cars three might be better than cars one. Cars two is trash. I've watched way too many cars.

Purely a matter of taste in animated films.

The Malice at the Palace was started by the fans, not the players

Ben Wallace had nothing to do with the malice in the palace. You know what I'm saying? Ben Wallace had that happens all the time where a player fights a player, the fans started the Malice in the Palace... I wasn't okay with taking the full blame, you know, I, I wasn't okay with that.

This is a subjective historical interpretation, though the Netflix documentary referenced in the episode supports the idea that fan behavior was a major catalyst.

Michael Jordan was the toughest player I ever defended

If I go on order of the toughest guys I've defended, and this is going to put, this is going to answer your question. The obvious would be first like Michael Jordan was the hardest guy. I haven't seen defended then as a tie between Kobe and LeBron, and then next would be Richard Hamilton.

Subjective ranking by a player who faced all of them.

Richard Hamilton was an exceptionally difficult defender assignment because he never stopped running

Richard Hamilton was hard because all he's doing is running the whole time. So I'm not a shooting guard, but I often guard the best players whoever's doing work... rip Hamilton, all he doing is running the whole time. And that's extremely tiring... He separates so well once at the point of the screen, he's gone. And it's so hard to keep up with.

Subjective athlete experience.

Coming back from a meniscus tear in five days was the dumbest mistake of my career

I tear my meniscus takes about six weeks to come back... I come back in five days... dumbest, dumbest mistake of my life in terms of my career came back too early. I didn't hurt myself, but I was receiving a lot of fluid in my knee. So I had to keep draining the fluid.

He never returned to his peak form after this injury and recovery attempt.

A human will eventually break the nine-second mark in the 100-meter dash

You never know. You know what I mean? For me, the possibility... now even our babies actually came out with new slides that helps you to actually run faster. So you never know what's next... Maybe one of my sons has [already been born].

The current world record is 9.58 (held by Bolt). A sub-9 second time is currently considered theoretically near-impossible by many sports scientists.

I would have been an elite wide receiver in the NFL

When they approach every brass, I was like, nah, I'm good... I am trying to get my knees blown out or anything. [But] I would still be fast, you know? So it's just running around the apartment, but still smoke anybody.

Speed is only one part of being an elite wide receiver, and Bolt never played competitive football.

Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest soccer player of all time

Who is your goat in soccer? [Bolt]: Cristiano Ronaldo... from my experience from very far... Madrid, plus I know Manchester... Tom Brady proved to the world he's the one. Ronaldo proved he's the one.

Inherently subjective debate.
