Maximum Security's disqualification from the Kentucky Derby was 100% the correct call

The actual change from Maximum Security getting kicked out of the race at the end, that was the correct call. 100%. You can't just drift in front of other horses. You have to give them a path.

Maximum Security was disqualified for interference, and despite appeals, the decision was upheld by racing commissions and courts.

The Bucks are going to walk to the NBA Finals

Like I'm saying, the Bucks are going to just walk to the finals this year. I'm very consistent on that.

The Bucks lost to the Toronto Raptors in the Eastern Conference Finals (4-2) after leading the series 2-0.

Steph Curry gets the least criticism of any superstar in sports for playing poorly

Watching [Steph Curry] play and watching him shoot and get hot is awesome. But there is not one single superstar that I've ever seen in any sport that gets less shit for sucking than Steph Curry.

Kevin Durant is the most unguardable human being ever created

What I'm saying is that when you look at all these guys [MJ, Shaq, Kobe, LeBron]... [Durant] does things at such an efficient level and at such a high rate. He's a seven-foot two-guard. He shoots 90% from the free-throw line. He's shooting 50% from three right now... if you had to create a basketball player, I think the two guys that you would create are probably Bron and KD for very different reasons.

To fix the Lakers, the front office needs to be cleared and someone should be stolen from the Spurs

I would change everyone that's in my front office, and then I would go and steal someone from the Spurs... There needs a lot more checks and balances. I think even Jeanie Buss needs somebody that can tell her no or can go in there and win an argument. And it doesn't have to be someone that she's friends with for 20 years.

Houston will win Game 3 against the Warriors, or they will get swept

I'm going to say Houston is going to win one game. And if Houston wins one game, the only game they will be able to win was game three. If they don't win game three, obviously they're going to get swept, in my opinion.

The Rockets won Game 3 126-121. They did not get swept; they also won Game 4 before losing the series 4-2.

Scott Foster is the best referee for a road team because he is a 'dickhead' who ignores the home crowd

There are certain referees that you want to see going into an arena... if I was going into Boston on the road, I want to see Scott Foster. Those kind of dickheads, those assholes, those guys that are kind of just like, leave me alone, I have to do my job. Those are the guys that I want. If anything, if the home team or the home crowd starts acting like jerks, they will actually go the other way.

Saquon Barkley will retire early from the NFL because the Giants are so incompetent

I can't wait until Saquon [Barkley] retires like year eight because he's like, fuck this shit. I'm Barry Sanders in this.

Saquon has completed 6 seasons in the NFL and left the Giants for the Eagles in 2024; he has not retired early yet.

Daenerys Targaryen is the worst dragon owner of all time

Daenerys is the worst leader of all time... she gets her fucking dragons killed every single turn. She's the worst dragon owner of all time. Honestly.

Sansa Stark is the biggest snitch in the Seven Kingdoms

Sansa's the biggest snitch of all time... Ned Stark kept that secret for his whole life. He basically died for that secret. Jon [Snow] went to his sisters... he made them swear. The second she got a chance she went running to Daenerys's hand [Tyrion].
