Ben Simmons' struggles in Philadelphia were a result of a lack of mental toughness and a generational shift in athletes

I just think it's a generational shift with some athletes, you know, the mental toughness aspect of it... Philly fans are probably the hardest fans to play in front of. You don't ever want to piss them off. Philly fans just want to see you working and just trying to be your best. So yeah, it was a tough situation.

This matches the consensus view of Philly fans and many observers regarding the Simmons/Sixers divorce.

The US Men's National Team will definitely get out of the group stage in the 2022 World Cup

The knockout rounds are going to be interesting. I'm not too concerned with them [USMNT] getting out of the group. It's really up to them. I mean, they have a favorable draw.

The USMNT finished 2nd in Group B and advanced to the Round of 16.

Lionel Messi is a better and more magical soccer player than Cristiano Ronaldo

I respect the amount of work that Ronaldo puts in... he's top notch pro. But Messi, I mean, what the guy has done on the field, it's magic. You don't see that in a player. And I don't know when, and if we will ever see a player that is quite like Messi again.

Michelle Akers is the greatest women's soccer player of all time

All time goats... I would say probably Michelle Akers. Yeah. She just—talk about somebody that would run through a brick wall, play on one leg if she had to, she scored in some of the biggest moments. She was definitely somebody I looked up to.
