Victor Wembanyama is a bust

Victor Wembanyama from France. The Frenchman not played in Summer League. Bust. Oh, okay. I like that take.

Wembanyama went on to win NBA Rookie of the Year and had one of the most statistically dominant rookie seasons in history.

Chiefs Aholic is the last outlaw of the West

Chiefs Aholic is really the last outlaw of the West. Roaming from Kansas City to Oklahoma, even to Arizona for the Super Bowl on leave. He did not report to court. And he's probably down in Mexico like many outlaws before him. You know, embodying the spirit of those like Josie Wales, Wild Bill Hickok.

Chiefs Aholic (Xaviar Babudar) was eventually captured in July 2023 in California, not Mexico.

I blew the lead at the Masters because Blakes don't win anything

I decided to blow the lead at the Masters because Blakes don't win anything. Right? Yep. So I figured that that was my way in, unfortunately, a couple weeks before I won [the PGA], but yeah, I figured that was... Blakes haven't won anything.

Koepka famously held a lead at the 2023 Masters before losing to Jon Rahm, though his reason for doing so is obviously satirical.
