WNBA Finals will be the third most-watched sport in the fall

The finals of the WNBA specifically will have the third most ratings in the fall. So behind college football and the NFL. There needs to be a third place. And WNBA finals will surpass the NBA opening, will surpass the NHL and it'll be the third most watched sport. It'll battle the World Series and it will be three.

The WNBA Finals set viewership records (averaging 1.6M viewers, up 115% from 2023), but it's unclear if it definitively surpassed the World Series and NHL as the third most-watched sport. It was competitive with but likely did not clearly beat the World Series ratings.

Dan Orlovsky’s claim that Mac Jones was the best rookie QB ever is the Take of the Year

Dan Orlovsky incredible saying he believes Belichick will win another Super Bowl with Mac Jones at QB. Mac Jones is the best rookie QB that I have ever seen since doing this job when it comes to knowing where to go with the football, when to go with the football, and how to throw that football. 'Ever seen' is just something you should not—ever seen is crazy.

The take being discussed (by Orlovsky) has been proven incorrect as Mac Jones was traded from the Patriots after several benchings.

The NFL should implement a rule where players can only play 16 games in an 18-game season

18 game season, every player can only play a maximum of 16 games. I like it in theory because it just, it's chaos. It's a wrinkle, would be strategery would be awesome, but... I liked it at first and then I thought I definitely would get fucked because I'd bet a line on Monday and then they'd be like, 'this is the game we're throwing.'

This is a hypothetical 'what-if' rule suggestion, making it inherently subjective.
