The Celtics vs Heat series will go at least six or seven games

I expected the US to come out and play really well tonight just because they were a very good team and it doesn't feel like it, it feels similar to the Bucks series where I think this will go back and forth. I think we're have a six or seven game series. I think this will go back and forth. I think the Heat will win one game in Boston.

The series went to 7 games, ending with a Celtics victory in Game 7.

European NBA players should be allowed to drink beer during games instead of Gatorade

My problem is not with the beer. I think if you're from Eastern Europe, you should be able to drink a beer, like instead of Gatorade during the game. And that would be fine.

This is a subjective opinion about league rules that were never changed.

The first college football program to hire a true GM and manage NIL like a salary cap will dominate

I'm convinced that the first school that actually hires a true GM, who has like OU, treats it like a salary cap will be ahead of everyone where it's like, this is our salary. Polian every year, next year, our salary cap goes down because you know, there's not as many contributions, whatever it may be. And you treat it like professional sports, it probably will work.

Over the following two years, many schools (including major SEC programs) hired GMs and established NIL collectives that function exactly as described.

Early Voting has a rest advantage that could challenge Epicenter in the Preakness

I agree with you. I think that [Epicenter] stands out in the field on paper, but Early Voting would have an edge he'll he'll probably set the pace. Epicenter should be right behind him. And Early Voting does have the edge of rest having not run since the Wood Memorial. So that will help his chances.

Early Voting won the 2022 Preakness Stakes, beating Epicenter.

The Preakness is historically a better race for fillies than the other Triple Crown races

I do think that the Preakness is usually a better race for fillies. We haven't had a Kentucky Derby, a Philly that's won the Kentucky Derby since winning colors in 1988... But we saw Rachel Alexandra, for example, beat the boys in the Preakness. I think that was 2009, very impressively.

Statistically, fillies have won the Preakness (6) more often than the Derby (3) or Belmont (3).

The six-second limit on Vine forced creativity in a way longer formats don't

I miss Vine, man... just that parameter, like kind of forces you to do stuff that you normally wouldn't try because you're restricted. You producers produce content that had to have a beginning, a middle and an end and be engaging and entertaining within a six second time period was actually good for creativity.

This is an aesthetic and creative opinion.

East Coast people have a better bullshit detector than people in Los Angeles

I think I have a pretty good read on, I mean, being from the East Coast, like you can kind of call bullshit, I think better than most people can. So like, my whole thing is like out here, like you bump into someone and you're like, 'Hey, fuck you.' Then it's over. Like LA you bump into someone and then they fucking email you a list of reasons why they need to understand why.

Regional personality stereotypes are inherently subjective.

Chris Paul might not care as much about winning as his die-hard fans do

I've been seeing this guy [Chris Paul] and it's, I mean, this is long-term and you know, like in every relationship there's always somebody, the relationship seems to matter a lot more to... It's getting to the point where like, I don't want to say, like, I'm not, I'm not trying to be a victim in this, but like, you can care about somebody for so long. And then you wonder, I don't think this person could care as much as I do.

The PMT office 'jeans ripping' trend will end in a legitimate fight

We've found ourselves into a jeans ripping problem on this podcast... It's going to end poorly. I don't know how it's going to end, but I just know that no one's going to be happy and we're going to get into a small fight about it. And then it's going to be no more pants ripping.

The jeans ripping bit did eventually fade out without a public massive blowout, but it was discontinued.

The 'no phone case' lifestyle is a gamble that makes every day more thrilling

A lot of people would be like, 'oh, you don't have a case because you have money.' I wrote that blog in like 2013 when I had just, I was smashing phones left and right. And it costs me a lot of money. I so I've been no case for a very long time. It is not a money thing. It's just a thrill thing. It's a gamble. Every day when you wake up knowing this could be the last day of your phone.

This is a personal lifestyle philosophy.
