The 2017 Stanley Cup Final will go seven games

Nashville was outplaying the Penguins. I think this is going to go seven. I think it's going to be a classic Stanley Cup final that only a million and a half people watch.

The Pittsburgh Penguins defeated the Nashville Predators in 6 games.

Tiger Woods' hair plugs are working

His hair did not look as bad as it has in the past... No, but it looks like the hair plugs might be working. Because Tiger Woods is a notorious guy who went balding pretty early.

Tiger Woods' hair remains a topic of speculation, but his mugshot showed significant thinning, contradicting the 'working' claim.

Tiger Woods' DUI arrest gives him street cred

I didn't think that Tiger Woods could have any more street cred, but he certainly does now. Now he's got it all.

Whether this provided 'street cred' is purely subjective and satirical.

I only have a Super Bowl ring because Jay Cutler got injured in the 2010 NFC Championship

I do thank Jay Cutler for getting hurt, and also B.J. Raji for being the fattest guy to ever score a touchdown in the NFC Championship... I think Aaron Rodgers is the only reason I have a Super Bowl ring, to be honest.

This is a subjective assessment of a past game outcome.

Justin Smith is the hardest player to block in NFL history

Currently Aaron Donald, all-time, probably Justin Smith... Dude, I mean, you can't judge toughness on a dude who has a giant Budweiser tattoo on his arm... Yeah, he was a bitch to block.

Subjective opinion from a professional player.

I think we're going to win the division. Okay. I'll start there.

LeBron James is maybe better than Michael Jordan

And LeBron James... better than Michael Jordan, maybe. Tune into FS1, Colin Cowherd will tell you about it for the next four hours.

Small schools should pay recruits in Bitcoin because it is untraceable and 'theoretically legal'

We just pay recruits in Bitcoin. Untraceable... Is there an NCAA law that you cannot pay your recruits in Bitcoin?... Bitcoin isn't tangible. It's theoretical. So, theoretically, we didn't do anything wrong.

Hot TakeCFBScorchingSarcastic
NCAA eventually allowed NIL payments, but directly paying for attendance remains illegal. Bitcoin is also very traceable via blockchain, despite PFT's claim.
