Awarding the Heisman Trophy before postseason games are played is bizarre

The only thing I would wish for the Heisman Trophy that it was awarded when all the games were done. That whole award before these postseason games are played is absolutely bizarre to me. Like, I don't, I can't comprehend it. Never will.

This is a subjective opinion on the structure of sports awards.

Statcast measurements for home run distances are a lie

Stack Cast said [the Aaron Judge home run went] like 473. I don't believe that for a second. ... When they say like 373 feet on their like internal measurement system, there's no way that was only 373 feet, right? No, I don't believe any of that.

This is a subjective opinion on the accuracy of tracking technology, which cannot be definitively proven wrong without independent data.

The Blue Jays are the only team with the mental criteria to beat the Dodgers in the World Series

I ran a mental simulation last night to, 'cause I was pissed off. 'cause it seems like the Dodgers were gonna win the World Series and there's nothing anybody else could do about it. I did 2000 mental simulations. I was laying in bed envisioning a team that I could picture beating the Dodgers in the World Series. And the only team that fits my mental criteria is the Blue Jays.

This is a subjective mental exercise and the Blue Jays didn't win the 2025 World Series (the Dodgers did).

If the Yankees had got swept, it's in like MLB needs to do something territory. Someone's, you know, someone's gotta extend a series. ... I'm saying like MLB is gonna rig games to advance the series. ... when the Brewers and Dodgers are pitching, they'd give him the, the juiced ones.

OpinionBaseballHotSarcastic
While MLB has admitted to varying ball properties in the past, there is no evidence of specific rigging to extend series in 2025.

The adults and coaches set the tone for a program, not the players

People always saying, well, players nowadays bullshit. Right? It the adults, the adults set the tone right and the players will follow. And we have the right kind of players with the right kind of mentality is full throttle every day, man. And you and you're honest, don't, we don't sugarcoat anything.

This is a fundamental coaching philosophy and is inherently subjective.
