Big CatCoach K cheated in the 2015 National Championship game by pressuring referees at halftime
In the 2015 National Championship game against Wisconsin, Wisconsin was dominating the game, and at halftime, Coach K went and talked to the refs, and they called 13 fouls against Wisconsin in the second half, even though they averaged 12 fouls a game, so he obviously was cheating.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
Big CatBruce Arians is on the hot seat because he is losing his mind and making terrible challenges
Bruce Arians is officially actually on the hot seat because I don't think he has all his marbles... That challenge though, everyone was saying how bad it was, but it we correctly identified it as the football guy who gets so frustrated he just challenges a random play he knows he's gonna lose.
HankKhloe Kardashian lied about being pregnant just because she was jealous of Kylie's announcement
Khloe is super, super old and has been trying to get pregnant for a long time. I think she was so mad that Kylie announced she got pregnant, she just said she went too.
PFT CommenterNFL ratings are down because players aren't sleeping with Kardashians anymore
Do you think that's why NBA ratings are up and NFL is down because none of the NFL players are sleeping with the Kardashians?

Twitter has announced that the app that everyone loves and can't make any money has announced they're going to make everyone read more. So 280 characters... I might not be able to be on Twitter anymore. That's so much reading. They just doubled their product. And they just ruined threads.
Interview
Cris CarterI would take a catch challenge against any mortal because my hands are still elite
My hands are still very, very good. I'm willing to get in any type of catch challenge with any mortal.
Cris CarterWarren Moon is the best quarterback I ever played with and it's not even close
Warren Moon. It's not even close. Really? Warren Moon. We played two seasons together. I had 244 catches and 24 touchdowns in only two years.
Cris CarterRandy Moss is the most talented wide receiver that has ever played the game
I knew he was probably the most talented wide receiver that's ever played the game. Because he was that rare. But all the other things in his football brain is what knew that, man, this kid is really, really special.
Cris CarterRandy Moss will be a first-ballot Hall of Famer
I think he is [a first ballot Hall of Famer]. Yeah. He has the numbers. He had the type of impact on football that would warrant him going into the Hall of First Ballot.
Cris CarterThe NFL product suffers in September because the CBA limits padded practices
When they changed the collective bargain agreement... the player's like, okay, we want to practice less. All right, we'll grant you that. It's affected the product, all right? Because you can't have the few number of padded practices and train people how to play in the NFL. It's not going to work, so the product will suffer the first month of the season.
Cris CarterJoe Flacco is not elite overall but has elite moments that elevate his team
Elite? Right on the border... In the pressure moments, can a guy rise up and elevate his team to the elite level? ... Joe Flacco not elite anymore but was once elite. No, no, no. Has elite moments. And raise his team to an elite level. Get it right.
Cris CarterColin Kaepernick doesn't have the personality to effectively verbalize his cause
I just don't think he has the personality. I think that it's very, very rare that you see someone take such a prominent position on something that's really profound and not really necessarily have the personality that would allow them to be able to verbalize it... when you can't communicate with the general public of what your cause is and your reasoning, it's not going to endear people to what you're trying to say.
Cris CarterColin Kaepernick is a starting-level upgrade for 4 to 5 NFL teams right now
How many teams in the league right now do you think he would be an upgrade for at the starting quarterback position? Well, you can go through them. At least four or five. I mean, you don't have to leave New York. I mean, Josh McCown. I mean, my goodness.
Cris CarterEvery professional athlete needs a 'common sense guy' in their crew to keep them out of trouble
Out of your crew, have one guy that's got some common sense... you need a tech guy. You need a driver. One guy to do the troll accounts. Social media.

PFT CommenterDerrick Rose and Dwyane Wade will turn into a pile of dust if they collide in practice
