Tiger Woods will never win anything big again

I don't think [Tiger Woods] is ever going to win anything big again. But for right now, he's back. He looked really good.

Tiger Woods famously won the Masters in 2019, which is definitely 'winning something big'.

Dak Prescott sucks

Dak Prescott sucks. He sucks. And anytime – everyone's like, well, he lost to Zeke Elliott. Well, if losing your running back means that you aren't a good quarterback anymore, you weren't a good quarterback to begin with.

While Dak has had ups and downs, he has consistently been a top-tier NFL quarterback and led high-powered offenses with and without Zeke Elliott. Calling him 'sucks' is hyperbole.

The Dolphins +1.5 over the Broncos is a lock

I got the Dolphins. Plus one and a half. Jay Cutler's back. Yes, Mr. Fourth Quarter... Also big time revenge game against the Broncos.

The Dolphins beat the Broncos 35-9 on December 3, 2017.

The Chiefs -3 over the Jets is a lock

I think figuring out why the Chiefs are only minus three against the Jets gave me a concussion. So I think I'm going to have to take them and find out why.

The Jets beat the Chiefs 38-31 on December 3, 2017.

Bitcoin is fake and people should buy land instead

My stardom is land. Bitcoin, currency, it's all fake. You can't see it. Buy something you can see with your own two eyeballs. Buy a plot. Buy an acre. Squat on it.

While land is a stable asset, calling Bitcoin 'fake' proved to be financially short-sighted as its value exploded in the years following this take.

Josh Rosen is ready for the NFL now, but Sam Darnold should stay in school

I would take Rosen right now. I think Darnold needs to go back. I mean, I never want to tell a kid to go to school again for another year when he can get paid, but I think as far as being a quarterback is concerned, Darnold would be better going back for another year, whereas I think Rosen's ready to play in the NFL now.

Both players struggled significantly in the NFL. Rosen, despite being 'ready', was a major bust and was traded after one season.

Georgia will beat and cover against Auburn in the SEC Championship

I think that this week in Atlanta, where it's going to be a far friendlier environment for the Bulldogs, they're going to get back to the run game... So I really like Georgia in this one, not just to cover the two and a half, but just to win.

Georgia beat Auburn 28-7 to win the SEC Championship on December 2, 2017.

If Ohio State beats Wisconsin, Alabama will get the 4th playoff spot

If Ohio State beats Wisconsin, I think Alabama will get that spot. As long as Clemson beats Miami, Oklahoma beats TCU, and then it probably doesn't really matter what happens in the SEC title game.

Ohio State beat Wisconsin, and the committee chose Alabama over Ohio State for the 4th playoff spot.

Wisconsin will beat Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship

I'm going with Wisconsin, man. 13-0 after this game, 13-0... I think Jonathan Taylor is a player, dog. Like, I like his game, bro.

Ohio State beat Wisconsin 27-21 on December 2, 2017.

The Bears would have had a better chance to win the 2010 NFC Championship if they played Caleb Hanie earlier

We'd have had a better chance of winning [the 2010 NFC Championship], no question. [If Lovie Smith went straight to Caleb Hanie].

Subjective claim about a past game outcome; Hanie did provide a spark, but it's unprovable if an earlier switch would have won the game.

Wearing sleeves in the cold is weak for an NFL player

That is so weak, man... I am [calling Kyle Long weak]. That's weak, dog. Next time I see him, [I'll say it to his face].

Purely a matter of opinion on football culture and toughness.

Tennessee fans effectively coach the team by vetoing hires

Well, they kind of are letting their fans coach their team next season by letting their fans tell them who they can and can't hire.

Factual recap of the influence fans had on the search, framed as a humorous take on 'coaching'.

Having a Chili's on campus helps a football program win games

This is [UCF's] first football season with an on-campus Chili's, and they're 11-0... Jimbo Fisher's record with a Chili's on campus, 78-17 with one national title. Jimbo Fisher's record without a Chili's on campus, 5-6 with zero national titles. Chili's wins football games.

While the records cited are factually correct correlations, the claim that Chili's *causes* wins is obviously satirical.
