The 49ers created the best smokescreen in NFL draft history

I would not put that past Kyle Shanahan because this is the best smokescreen that I think I've ever seen in the NFL draft [leading people to believe they wanted Mac Jones].

The Niners did successfully keep their pick secret until the end, with many experts incorrectly predicting Jones to SF at #3.

Aaron Rodgers will go to the Broncos

I think [Aaron Rodgers] is going to go to Denver, and it's got to be an awesome life to be a Broncos fan. Because it's like, yeah, you get a couple seasons that are mixed in here and there, but then you just get good quarterbacks that just want to come to you. And Aaron Rodgers sounds like he wants to go there.

Rodgers did not go to Denver; he stayed with the Packers for two more seasons before being traded to the Jets in 2023.

Justin Fields is better than Aaron Rodgers

I don't fucking care. Justin Fields is a better quarterback than Aaron Rodgers anyway.

At the time, Rodgers was the reigning MVP. Fields struggled in Chicago and was eventually traded to the Steelers after three seasons.

Tim Tebow is only returning to the NFL for attention

He is such a fucking attention whore, annoying piece of shit... He's 33 years old, by the way... I wouldn't be surprised if Tim Tebow just became an astronaut after this year.

OpinionFootballHotSarcastic
Tebow's return was short-lived; he was cut during the preseason and never made the final roster.

Justin Fields will be a great quarterback

I honestly think Justin Fields is going to be a great quarterback. I had him third on my list, on my power rankings list.

Fields showed flashes but never reached 'greatness' with the Bears, leading to him being replaced by Caleb Williams.

I would not trade Bill Belichick for Aaron Rodgers

I said no. [Hard no]. Belichick's got a longer lifespan. He's pretty old. And he's a better proven winner.

This is subjective, but following this take, the Patriots struggled under Belichick without Brady, while Rodgers won another MVP in 2021.

Aaron Rodgers will remain a Green Bay Packer for the 2021 season

Yes, he will be a Packer, just for an emotional hedge... The fact that he wasn't traded right before the draft feels like it's going to be harder to trade him now.

Rodgers did indeed stay with Green Bay for the 2021 season.

Kyle Pitts is the safest pick of the 2021 NFL Draft

I think the safest pick of the draft, Kyle Pitts.

Pitts had a massive rookie season (1,000 yards) but has since struggled with usage and injuries, though his talent remains undeniable.

Essential Quality is a machine but hasn't run a fast race yet

He's just a machine so far... The one knock on him... [is] he's yet to run what most people would consider to be a fast race by Kentucky Derby favorite standards.

Essential Quality finished 4th in the Derby (promoted to 3rd) but went on to win the Belmont Stakes and Travers Stakes, proving he was elite.

Bob Baffert is the most successful horse trainer of all time

When Bob retires, I think he's in his late 60s, but he's going strong. He'll be the most successful horse trainer of all time.

Baffert holds the record for most Triple Crown race wins, though his legacy has been complicated by drug violations.

The #1 post position at the Kentucky Derby is not a disadvantage

There's this bs out there that's been out there for years that the number one post position is this horrible disadvantage and it's not... the advantage of saving ground being on the inside around the turns makes the horse run better than his odds would indicate.

Known Agenda, who ran from the #1 hole in 2021, finished 9th.

Essential Quality will NOT win the 2021 Kentucky Derby

I can't tell you who I'm going to pick, but it's not Essential Quality.

Essential Quality finished 4th (eventually 3rd after disqualification), so Moss was correct that he did not win.

Bet on Endorsed in the 10th race at Churchill Downs on Saturday

There is a horse running Saturday in the 10th race... His name is Endorsed and I will endorse betting on Endorsed... I think the horse is an excellent play.

Endorsed finished 4th in the 2021 Churchill Downs Stakes.

I am going to blog seven times a week

Probably like seven [blogs a week]. I'm not going to blog about anything unless I seriously have a good opinion on it, and that's something I'll promise you.

Billy's blog output remained inconsistent throughout his career, often failing to reach a daily cadence.

Sarcasm is the best way to prepare a child for life

I'm going to weaponize [my son] with sarcasm. That will hopefully get him through life.

Subjective parenting philosophy.
