Nikola Jokic isn't 'trying' to not care; he's just being an honest guy who wants to see his horses

I don't think Jokic is doing, he's just being himself. It's not like he's going online being like, Ooh, am I getting points for not caring. Like he's just being an honest guy. The guy wants to see his horses. He's not doing this for some payoff where it's like he's gonna gain some points.

This is a subjective assessment of a player's personality and motivations.

Las Vegas residents should boycott Oakland Athletics games in solidarity with Oakland fans

If I lived in Las Vegas, I would not go to an Oakland Athletics game once they moved to town. I think Las Vegas needs to stand, or at least threatened to stand with Oakland fans. It just feels dirty. I would not be comfortable supporting that.

This is a prescriptive opinion on how fans should behave.

I'm betting Tennessee at 8-1 to win the College World Series

I'm thinking about driving over to New Jersey and betting the College World Series. I think I'm gonna go Ball for life and take Tennessee eight to one.

LSU won the 2023 College World Series. Tennessee was eliminated in the bracket stage.

Man on Fire is the perfect plane movie

You know what this is? It's also a perfect plane movie. If you're looking to kill, go like a three hour plane ride, man on fire every time. And you can watch it every time you're on a plane.

I have probably walked by at least six serial killers in my lifetime

Number of serial killers walked by. I think it's over three people. Holy shit, six. I like that because then it's like, holy shit.

This is statistically difficult to verify but is likely an exaggeration for comedic effect during the segment.

I've eaten way more chicken wings than anybody else in the PMT room

Chicken wings eaten. I bet you I'd be topping this room. I think I've eaten way more chicken wings than anybody else here.

While unrecorded, Big Cat's historical food takes make this a highly probable but technically unverified claim.

The Denver Nuggets are going to be a dynasty

I think the Nuggets are going Dynasty. I thought the first who'd they play first? Timberwolves... these guys are gonna win the entire thing. And not only that, they're, no one's gonna even come close to him. I don't think anyone's gonna come close.

The Nuggets were eliminated in the second round of the 2024 playoffs by the Timberwolves, failing to repeat and casting doubt on immediate 'dynasty' status.

Orcas are attacking boats to train their young to hunt, not for revenge

Update on those orca attacks. Turns out the orcas may be using the boats that they're attacking to train the younger orcas, how to hunt. It may not be some sort of retribution situation.

Many marine biologists have indeed suggested the 'play' or 'fad' theory rather than 'vengeance', though the exact motive remains a scientific debate.
