Minnesota sports fans should celebrate their play-in win like a championship

Minnesota is an absolute factory of sadness... So if you're a Minnesota fan celebrate, like this is a championship because it has been that bad and they deserve a young, fun team like this.

This is a subjective opinion on how fans should behave based on franchise history.

There is a zero percent chance LeBron James watched the WNBA draft

There's no way he watched a WNBA draft. There's a 0.0% chance. If he was watching WNBA draft, he would have tweeted it during the WNBA draft, not 24 hours later being like just a thought I've had on my mind recently.

Impossible to definitively prove LeBron's eyeballs weren't on a screen, but the timing supports Big Cat's skepticism.

The Celtics will beat the Nets in six games

I think the Celtics are going to beat the Nets. I watched that game tonight that Kevin [Durant] and Kyrie [Irving] didn't miss a shot for three quarters and the Cavs... almost won... the Nets just don't have any defense... I think the Celtics are going to beat them in six.

The Celtics swept the Nets 4-0 in the first round. Big Cat was correct about the winner but wrong on the game count.

The Nets are going to 'whomp' the Celtics

I think that the Nets are going to whomp the Celtics. I really, I really do. I think it's going to be a whopping... When they want to play well, they can play well. They are the rare team that I think the switch can be flipped on.

The Nets were swept 4-0 by the Celtics. This was definitively incorrect.

Ben Simmons will return for the Nets during the playoffs

I do think that Ben Simmons is coming back. I think that he's ready. I think that they've just been waiting to get them back out there... I do think that he's going to come back. I think that he's ready to come back.

Ben Simmons never played for the Nets in the 2021-22 season or playoffs.

Dan Snyder is finished as an NFL owner because he took money from other owners

I think Dan Snyder has done. I think that motherfucker is done... it's been proven through the other books that have been released now, the documents that have been sent to Congress, that he was taking money out of the pockets of Jerry Jones out of all the other owners. And if there's one thing like you can have 40 sexual harassment claims against you. If you take money from the other owners, that's when they're going to do something about it.

While it took until 2023, Dan Snyder was eventually forced/pressured into selling the team for $6.05 billion.

LeBron James is a coach killer who has gotten six coaches fired

LeBron has been freed of another coach... LeBron has gotten six coaches fired in his career... I don't know why we don't talk about LeBron James as a coach killer more because Frank Vogel got overall raw deal.

LeBron has played for many coaches who were subsequently fired, though the degree of his direct influence is subjective.

Robot umpires will ruin the fun of complaining about baseball

That's been my take for a very long time. That robot ops will ruin everything because then we won't get to have guys like Joe West that we can complain about, right?

Inherently subjective take about the 'soul' of the game vs. accuracy.

You can't trust anyone who owns a snake as a pet

I have a longstanding theory that like, if you can't trust anyone who owns a snake as a pet and that's biblical, like the snake is bro snake showed up on what day seven and was in fucked everything up.

Subjective opinion on pet ownership.

Music is a deeper passion for me than acting

If I had to pick [between acting and music]... I would go with the band. I had to.

This is the guest's personal preference.
