The Dallas Cowboys are deader than dead and shouldn't be on primetime television

The Dallas Cowboys are deader than dead. It was already dead, but now it's really, really dead. And they're pathetic and they shouldn't be on tv, but, oh wait, we still have them on Monday Night Football that they can't flex because there's a Simpsons broadcast.

The Cowboys finished the season 6-11 and were non-competitive in most primetime slots.

The Dallas Cowboys should start Trey Lance for the rest of the season

Why don't they start Trey Lance? It's, he's not Cooper Rush. Right. But he's probably not good, but why not at this point? I think you, I think you gotta be at least like there's a level of competency that maybe he hasn't achieved, I guess. But I mean, you traded a draft pick for him.

While Trey Lance saw action in Week 18, he did not start for the remainder of the season.

The Los Angeles Chargers are a sharp bet to win the Super Bowl at 45 to 1 odds

The original bet that we all put in together was, I don't think the Chargers are gonna win the Super Bowl, but they are at 45 to one insane odds. 'cause they're a playoff team and they could play, they could basically beat anyone in a one game elimination set.

The Chargers made the playoffs but lost to the Ravens in the Wild Card round.

Joe Burrow is having an elite statistical season comparable to MVP years by Brady and Rodgers

Through the first 11 games on the four and seven Bengals, Joe Burrow has 3028 passing yards, 27 touchdowns and five interceptions... entire exercise is just to prove that Joe Burrow's having an insane season and the rest of his team has let him down.

Statistically, Joe Burrow was among the league leaders in yards and touchdowns despite a losing record.

Aaron Rodgers will sign with the New York Giants next season

I think, I think he might walk across to the other locker room. The Giants. He loves New York. They improve their old line. They have some receivers. Their defensive line is good. He doesn't have to move.

Rodgers' future for the 2025 season is currently unknown.

Aaron Rodgers failed with the Jets because his injury took away his 'chip on his shoulder' season

The biggest reason that Aaron Rodgers didn't work in the Jets is because the Achilles took away his chip on his shoulder year. Yeah. The guy is great when he has a chip on his shoulder. He had it from Green Bay. He got hurt, couldn't play the chip on the shoulder goes away.

This is a subjective psychological assessment of a player's mindset.

There was a coordinated media hit against Indiana Football orchestrated by Greg Sankey

Greg Sankey made a call to all of media on Monday and had everyone in the media bash them when they have their big game coming up against Ohio State. And that makes no sense to me. Indiana has not played anyone. Indiana's an awesome story. Indiana's an underdog story. I'm rooting for Indiana.

While media criticism of Indiana's schedule increased, there is no public evidence of a coordinated hit by Sankey.

Georgia is the best team in the college football country

I think Georgia at their best beats any team at their best. I think Georgia at their worst also beats any team at their worst. Like the floor for Georgia is higher than any other team's floor. And I think that Georgia, like medium Georgia probably beats everybody at their medium except for maybe Alabama.

Georgia finished the regular season with two losses and did not win the SEC, though they remained a top-tier contender.

The specialized NBA Cup courts are bad for casual fans and confusing to watch

I do not like the court. Okay. I don't like, I don't, I think for a casual fan it's gonna take a while for them to get The NBA a cup. It just doesn't help. It's like, what is wrong with this court? Then you have to explain this whole long NBA cup thing. Not a fan of the court.

This is a subjective aesthetic and marketing opinion.

The Philadelphia 76ers will reach 10 wins by Christmas Day

10 wins. 10 wins. Gotta get 10 wins by Christmas. I think you gotta get to 10 wins... eight and five's not that hard. Can find eight wins. 10 wins. 10 wins. Gotta get 10 wins by Christmas.

The Sixers record as of late 2024 makes this unlikely, but the outcome will be clear by Christmas.

Nick Nurse leaked the 76ers team meeting details because of his obsession with the phrase 'elephant in the room'

Tyrese loves the big fella, but this is the elephant in the room. A person involved in the meeting told ESPN... Nick Nurse is very fond of using the phrase elephant in the room. And he's done it at least three times. Nick Nurse loves the phrase elephant in the room. He had a fucking elephant on his desk.

There is no official confirmation of who the leak was; this is a humorous theory based on verbal tics.

Kentucky basketball won the coaching trade by replacing Calipari with Mark Pope

Kentucky, there's a clip going around. That's awesome. It's Mark Pope coaching in the huddle, essentially telling his players exactly what Cooper Flag is going to do... Something that Kentucky basketball is missing that in-game coaching. Kentucky basketball, good for you guys.

Kentucky started very strong under Pope, while Calipari's transition has been more inconsistent.

Nikola Jokic is the best player in the NBA right now

Who is the best player in the NBA right now? Yoki. Yeah. He is. Yoki. I honestly think it's his feeling for the ball. Right. I know a ton of motherfuckers that can pass, but like a one second pass is worse than a 0.3 pass... His feel for the game, his feel for the ball I think is one of his best attributes.

Jokic is a multi-time MVP and widely considered a top-3 player globally.

JJ Watt's Hall of Fame candidacy is questionable because he lacks career sack volume

When JJ Watt retired people were having discussions about him being a first ballot hall of famer, which is absolute nonsense. What's, he's not even on the top 20 for career sacks. Meanwhile, Jared Allen is number 12 on that list and has still not gotten in. I'm honestly not sure if Watt should ever be a Hall of Famer.

JJ Watt is widely expected to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer due to his 3 DPOY awards, despite injuries shortening his career.
