Footballs were never actually made of pigskin

Wilson football reached out to me about that and they explained that it was never pig skin, it was cow skin... I said, so now I was thinking to myself, now I should just go around and just start saying, like, let's go toss the cow skin around.

In the early days of the game, inflated pig bladders were used, but the outer covering has almost always been cowhide since the ball became standardized.

Mitch Trubisky being the 20th best quarterback in Madden with a 75 rating is fair

Trubisky was ranked the 20th best quarterback with a rating of 75. That's okay.

Mitch Trubisky's subsequent career trajectory (being benched/moving to a backup role) suggests 75 was a very reasonable, if not slightly generous, rating.

Dennis Rodman is a top pick to storm Area 51 because of his diplomatic experience in North Korea

My first pick, I'll just take Dennis Rodman because he went to North Korea. He can figure out diplomatic stuff. He will be able to talk to the aliens.

The take is inherently subjective as it involves a hypothetical raid on a secret government facility.

Sam Cassell would be the perfect athlete to storm Area 51 because the aliens would think he's one of them

My second one, I guess I'll go with Sam Cassell. Just because, you know, maybe if there is any type of, like, maybe these guys are like us, they'll see Sam Cassell and be like, all right, that's an ally.

This is a comedic take based on an NBA meme and cannot be factually verified.

The sky is actually flat

The sky is flat. The earth's not flat, the sky is. The sky's flat.

The sky/atmosphere is not a flat object; it's a layer of gases surrounding a spherical planet.

I would much rather get my information from Ask Jeeves than Wikipedia

I'd much rather read off Ask Jeeves than Wikipedia. If we can start that back up, then I'm all for that. You can't quote Google anymore, so you got to go ask Jeeves. I never got a bad grade on my paper from ask Jeeves.

The take is a subjective preference for one website over another.
