I want the Brewers' pitcher Brody Brecht to be the biggest bust in MLB history after he was selected over Ranger Suárez

I now hate this guy. I now want this guy to be the biggest bust in MLB history. Ranger Suárez has a 1.94 in 13 games... How do you possibly look at that and be like, this guy is more deserving than Ranger Suárez?

This is a subjective desire for a player's failure. Whether Suarez was more 'deserving' is also subjective.

I'm counting Novak Djokovic's Wimbledon loss as his 25th major because Jannik Sinner is a cheater

I'm counting this as Novak Djokovic's 25th major because he played [Sinner] better than Alcaraz played [Sinner]. And [Sinner] is a sinner and he's a cheater. So therefore Ipso Facto Djokovic is the goat 25th major Grand Slam championship.

Djokovic literally lost the final (to Alcaraz in 2024, but the transcript frames it around Sinner). Djokovic did not win a 25th major at this event.

LeBron James will not be playing for the Lakers next season

I don't think LeBron's playing for the Lakers next year... It also makes sense because they have [Anthony Davis], they have to start building the team around [him]. LeBron deserves any way that he wants to go out because of what he's done... but if you're the Lakers, you can't just let him like hold you hostage for the last couple years of his career.

LeBron James signed a two-year extension with the Lakers in July 2024 and remained on the team for the 2024-25 and 2025-26 seasons.

First dates should always start with drinks as a 'solos match' before committing to more

I was thinking we, we could run, we could run drinks if she's open to that. I like that Max, easy. Just happy hour. A few drinks. Nothing crazy. Maybe just one drink. We'll start with one drink. And then if it's good, then you go two.

The World Series of Poker should embrace its bad boy William Kass to save the game from 'robot' players

The World Series of Poker is gonna do the opposite thing that they should do. They should embrace this guy because these type of people... you need personalities. You need people that are aggravating. You don't need people who are robots who are playing by an algorithm and just going through it.

This is a subjective opinion on entertainment value and sports marketing strategy.

Opening Counter-Strike skin cases is officially back

My who's back of the week is going to be Counterstrike cases specifically opening them... They went CS:GO case unboxings, $590,000 in cases they unboxed. Unprecedented territory is what we're approaching there.

The data supports a massive surge in unboxing revenue for Counter-Strike in 2024-2025.

Disney World with kids is the absolute worst place in the world to be violently hungover

Disney World with kids would be hell on earth. Because then you actually actively have to parent and chase them around and worry about where they're being and stand in lines and eat gross food. I actually don't think that there's, I've never been to Disney World as a kid or an adult, but I think that might be the worst place in the world.

I consider myself a top 10 quarterback in the NFL

I mean, I think, I think I should be top 10 quarterback... where I'm at in my career year five, like it's time to time to go and start winning consistently and, and be not just that team where it's like, you know, you're always like, no one really takes you seriously.

Dabo Swinney is a master motivator but not the most 'cerebral' X's and O's coach

He's not like the biggest, he understands the game, he's not a huge X's and O's guys, but he's like motivator vision... he would make you believe like you could do anything. Like our team, we'd be like, dude, we're gonna like, it didn't matter who we're playing, like we're gonna kill these dudes.

I will donate and shave my hair if I win a Super Bowl

I would be thrilled to cut my hair [if I won a Super Bowl]. I'll match. If you do it, I'll match. We all cut our hair. All three of you?... We're circling back to that. I'm interested. I would be thrilled to cut my hair.

Pending the outcome of Trevor Lawrence winning a Super Bowl.
