Recap
PFT CommenterIt is a red flag that prominent NBA owners are cashing out right now
Isn't it interesting that the Lakers got a screaming good deal on what's going to be the face of their franchise for the next 10, 15 years right before they sold? ... Mark Cuban sold the Dallas Mavericks, the Celtics got sold... Is that a good sign for every other owner if all the preeminent owners are selling their teams right now? ... Are we hitting the bubble?
PFT CommenterJames Wood will be the face of baseball within two years
Buy all the James Wood stock that you can get right now. ... 22 years old. I think he's got 20 dingers right now. 50 some RBIs. ... I think we're gonna have a James Wood face of baseball conversation in the next two years.
Big CatOilers fans will not blame Connor McDavid if he leaves Edmonton
Conor McDavid is such a special talent. I'm wondering if there's maybe parts of the Oiler fan base... If he did leave, I bet you there'd be some Oilers fans who'd be like, we don't blame you. You've done everything you can for the Oilers and they just aren't able to put the full team around him.
Interview
Boban MarjanovićA team of former Yugoslavia countries could beat the United States in basketball

Bret BielemaThe best indicators for a recruit's success are the uncles on the mother's side
If you can meet mom and then if you meet one of her brothers. The uncles from mom's sides are usually the greatest indicators of what you're gonna get... DNA means a lot.
Bret BielemaTeams that throw it all over the place cannot win consistently
I think the balance of running... the teams that throw it all over the place, just you can't win consistently. You can get a hot hand, you got a great quarterback, maybe some receivers, but you can't win consistently.
Fyre Fest
Big CatSugar cones with soft serve ice cream is crazy
I think sugar cones with soft serve is crazy. I think it's crazy. Soft serve ice cream will drip. ... Sugar cone's guaranteed dripping. ... Sugar cone is a classic ice cream cone [for scoops], not a soft serve cone.
PFT CommenterPistachios are a grand slam nut
I would put pistachio on my Mount Rushmore of nuts. ... Peanut is a double off the wall. I enjoy peanuts. But you talk about a grand slam, now we're talking pistachios. ... It might be my favorite nut.
