Recap
PFT CommenterUsain Bolt could play in the NFL as a Mike Wallace-type deep threat
I want to know if Usain Bolt, if you put him in pads, put him in a helmet – Can he take a hit? He wouldn't go across the middle. I already know that about him. He would be like a Mike Wallace type on the outside.
PFT CommenterLeBron James could be the fastest sprinter in the world if he wanted to
You have to imagine that if LeBron James wanted to, he could be the fastest sprinter in the world.
Big CatMichael Phelps is the all-time best Olympic champion
But it was a great performance. Michael Phelps, all-time best Olympic champion. I think we can safely say that, right?
PFT CommenterI could win an Olympic silver medal in a swimming relay if I was on a team with Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, and Connor Dwyer
If you put me with Michael Phelps, Ryan Lochte, and Connor Dwyer, and we do the four-person 200 meters, I think we at least take silver.
Big CatWater polo and men's field hockey are the two worst sports in the world
little bone to pick water polo and field hockey men's field hockey those are the two worst sports in the world um why well water polo you talk about drowning they literally just i mean they're treading water and they're trying not to drown the entire time
Interview
Mike PereiraNFL catch rules should be based on common sense rather than slow-motion replay
If common sense dictates that it's a catch, it ought to be a catch. I think one of the issues that has come up in this is that it doesn't belong in replay. This whole judgment area... That's judgment. It's 100% judgment. And replay ought to be based on facts, not judgment.
Mike PereiraEd Hochuli wears extra small jerseys to make his biceps look bigger
I'm saying if you think a guy that buys extra small jerseys and cuts off the ends of them, if you think and does 100 push-ups before he goes out on the field to make them look bigger, if you think that's a show-off, I think it's a show-off.
Mike PereiraThe New England Patriots have pulled shenanigans that have to be considered cheating
Based on the Spygate thing, which they did, and what I at least perceive to be enough evidence on the Spygate thing, to me, they pull shenanigans that are certainly have to be considered cheating.
Mike PereiraJon Gruden was the worst coach in the NFL to deal with on the sidelines
Who was the worst coach on the sideline? Him [Gruden]. I don't think there's any question. And officials used to call me when I was in charge of the league and say, you know, Gruden was out of line.
Pr 101
PFT CommenterRyan Lochte should lean into his gas station incident by getting a gun sponsorship
If I'm Lochte, I think it's pretty simple actually. If I'm Lochte, I get sponsored by a gun company because you're not going to get held up if you've got a gun. I've got like some catchphrases already... Lochte and loaded.
Thoughts And Prayers
PFT CommenterGiancarlo Stanton's season-ending injury is definitive proof of the Home Run Derby curse
He had the home run derby curse... so we actually predicted this. Not to brag, but we called it. Like a month ago, we said whoever's going to win is going to be out for the rest of the season. So sometimes it's tough to keep track of how right we are all the time.
