Rich Eisen In Studio, Heat Tie Up The Finals, SCF G1, Jake Hit A Hole In One And Who's Back Of The Week

The Miami Heat will win the NBA Championship because of the Taylor Swift curse

Every NBA team that made it to the semi-finals this year has had a Taylor Swift Eras tour stop through their city, and they've all been eliminated. The Denver Nuggets had Taylor Swift perform there... The Miami Heat is the only team that has not had Taylor Swift perform in their city. So if you're a Swifty, you know that that means that Miami is going to win these championship.

Erik Spoelstra is the best coach in the NBA

The [Miami Heat] are a really fucking good team. And Spo is the best. Yeah. He is the best coach.

The Florida Panthers' physical style of play might not work against the Vegas Golden Knights

Florida is like a team that as a team feels like they just want to get in fights and bother you. And Vegas is the most disciplined big team that it might not work for them. It's obviously game one, but it might not work against a team like Vegas who's like, no, fuck this, we'll play hockey.

Getting a hole-in-one is the best thing a man can do

It's like the best thing that a man can do. Yeah. Is get a Hole in one.

I could kill any bird in a fight, including a Great Horned Owl or an Ostrich

I'd fucking smash a baby owl... Fucking kick [a Great Horned Owl] to the moon. Listen, that's any bird dead. I will kill any bird. If you put an ostrich in front of me, I tie its neck into a knot... Choke it out.

Debating Skip Bayless every day is the worst job in America

I think it might be the worst job in America to debate Skip Bayless every day... Skip's not gonna pick someone who can go toe to toe with him. Skip's gonna pick someone that he can knock out in like the fifth round every single day. I really do think it might be the worst job in America.

I would never take a job that requires waking up at 3:30 AM

I am officially taking my name out of the hat... because of the early wake up time. I actually don't think that there's a single job in the world that I would do if it meant that I had to wake up at three thirty in the morning every day.

Luke Fickle will be awesome at Wisconsin

And we hopefully will find somebody like Luke Fickle. Yes. Who I told you prior to the, you know, our taping here. I think he's awesome. Yeah. And I, all Wisconsin fans will not know what to do with themselves when like a fifth wide receiver steps on the field. Even once. I love him... He's funny, he's engaging, he's young. He's exactly who Wisconsin should be going for.

The Detroit Lions will win the NFC North

Lions were one of 'em. Which I think we can all probably agree. They seem poised to make the playoffs. I think they win the division.

The Falcons will make the playoffs in 2023

Falcons that division's completely wide open. Yeah. Who do you think wins it? The Saints. Just cuz they got Derek Carr. I mean, I need to see what that looks like. I like what they did on defense and I like the coach.

Aaron Rodgers can play deep into his 40s like Tom Brady

I do believe Rodgers can be Brady 2.0 in terms of playing deep into his forties. If that is something he wants to do. He doesn't look to be a broken down guy. He looks to be the exact opposite. Taking care of himself.

The Washington Commanders should change their name to the Washington Football Team and then the Hogs

I would love to see them go back to Washington football team... Do a placeholder season... If I'm Josh Harris, I'm taking over a team. Change everything... Change it to the football team again. And then the year after that, change it to the hogs. Hogs would always made the most sense. It's a great name.

The 1990s Buffalo Bills are a dynasty

Do you consider the bills of the nineties of Dynasty? ... I would [say so]. We'll never see that again. Ever. We saw Brady, we saw Brady with the Patriots and Belichick and they didn't make four in a row... the bills of the early nineties dynasty there, there's names from that team that are all over the hall of fame.

Justin Fields is the guy for the Chicago Bears

So you think Justin Fields is the guy? [Eisen] Yes, I do too. I think they made the right move.

Urban Meyer would fail if he returned to college coaching in the transfer portal era

You think Urban would be able to coach in the transfer portal era where somebody's basically like, I don't like the way you've treated me... His way or the highway. And as you know, and you'll get drafted. There's now a highway. There's now a highway.
