I think Geno Smith might be a franchise quarterback

I think Geno Smith, I think he might be a franchise quarterback.

Geno Smith did eventually become a successful starter for the Seahawks in 2022, though at the time this was viewed as a total joke.

I really thought this was the Cardinals' year in the World Series

It sucks because Cardinals were actually my pick to win the World Series, so I feel bad about that. I really did think it was their year.

The Cardinals were eliminated in the NL Wild Card game by the Dodgers on October 6, 2021.

The Packers will dominate the Bengals by 10 points

My favorite's going to be the Packers. Minus three against the Bengals. I see this being a 10-point, never in doubt, Aaron Rodgers kind of dominates game.

The Packers won 25-22 in overtime, so they did not win by 10 points or dominate, though they did win the game.

I am officially 'standing my ground' on the Steelers against the Broncos

My personal stand my ground game where if the Steelers don't win this game, I am done not only with the Steelers this season, but done betting on them, just pretending they don't exist. This is the game that if they have any pulse left, it's a pulse check. If they have any pulse left, they will win this game.

The Steelers won 27-19, so they passed the pulse check and Big Cat's stand-his-ground bet was correct.

The Dolphins might beat the Buccaneers outright

I'm going with Buccaneers versus Dolphins. They're minus 10. I think they're going to cover. I think the Dolphins might win outright. Seriously.

The Buccaneers won 45-17. The Dolphins did not come close to winning outright.

The Bills will beat the Chiefs in their Sunday night revenge game

I do think the Bills are going to win this game because I think the revenge factor and also this is one of those games where it's like, which team do you trust more to get a stop? And I would put that on the Bills.

The Bills won 38-20, so the prediction was correct.

The Browns vs. Chargers game will be a high-scoring over

My over is going to be Browns at Chargers, 47. I like a lot of points in this game.

The final score was 47-42 (89 total points), easily clearing the 47-point total.

The Browns and Chargers will stay under the total (The 'Lunder')

I'm with Hank and Liam. I am calling this a Lunder. Lunder 45. Lunder, yes.

The game exploded for 89 points, making this an 'incorrect' prediction and fitting the 'Lunder' title perfectly.

The Cowboys are currently #2 in the NFL if we used BCS rankings

If we did BCS rankings for the teams right now, I think the Super Bowl would maybe be the Cardinals versus the Cowboys because the Cowboys have the best loss. I think the Cowboys might be number two in the BCS.

This is a subjective ranking based on a hypothetical system.

Deontay Wilder is a pathetic loser

I don't hate the guy. Guy's a pathetic loser. So how could I have any anger with him at all?

Fury beat Wilder for a second time via KO shortly after this interview.

Tommy Fury will knock Jake Paul clean out

I think it'll be a big buildup, a lot of talking, a lot of promotional stuff. But I think in the end, Tommy knocks him clean out.

The fight eventually took place in February 2023. Tommy Fury won by split decision, not a knockout.

You get rich through saving money, not just earning it

I fly on a plane called Ryanair. That's the cheapest you can fly on in England... In 10, 15 years, when all the boxing's done and all these idiots are all flat broke... I'll still be a multimillionaire. Because it's not how much you can earn. It's how much you can save.

This is a philosophical lifestyle take that can't be objectively proven but reflects Fury's personal values.

Dillinger was a better bull than Bodacious

I'd be a Dillinger guy. As far as what a guy would want to see out of a bucking bull as a rider, I think that Dillinger was a way better bull.

This is a subjective opinion from a professional in the field.

Bucking bulls are getting tougher and bred to buck harder

Bulls are getting tougher. It's just like the horse racing industry. They bred faster horses. They're breeding bulls to buck harder. And that's where we're finding a lack in actually getting more bull riders into the sport.

In pro rodeo, it is well-documented that breeding programs (like those of stock contractors) have significantly improved the athleticism of the animals over the last few decades.

Ted Bundy is a wildly overrated serial killer

Ted Bundy is wildly overrated. I mean, I... Ted Bundy was overrated as a killer. He's just good looking.

This is a highly controversial and morbid subjective take.
