That team, [Daniel] Vogelbach has just the perfect doing something huge in late October moment. Oh yeah, he's written for it... He is a hero in waiting. Like everyone knows that, buy stock in Vogelbach right now. He will have a big moment. And everyone who hasn't been watching baseball be like, who's this fat guy? This is incredible.

The Mets were eliminated in the Wild Card round by the Padres. Vogelbach went 0-for-7 in the series and did not have a 'huge' moment.

The NFL gave Deshaun Watson an 11-game suspension specifically so his return would be against the Texans

So you look at the schedule that game that [Deshaun Watson] would be coming back would be against the Houston Texans. So they have to talk about it all the time throughout the entire game, whole team in Houston, homecoming... just so happens [flex scheduling] starts right on week 11. I don't know if they'd flex this... but they're not gonna take the Dallas Cowboys out.

Deshaun Watson did return in Week 13 against the Texans after his 11-game suspension (plus a bye week). The narrative alignment was exactly as PFT predicted.

The move for NFL preseason betting is to bet against every rookie coach that won their first game

I think the move this weekend is to reverse that and bet against money line every rookie coach that won their first preseason game because they got that win under the belt. Now they're like, you know what? I just wanna evaluate now. Now they're gonna swing back in the other direction.

In Week 2 of the 2022 preseason, rookie coaches who won Week 1 (like Matt Eberflus and Kevin O'Connell) had mixed results, making the 'system' unreliable.

Owning a snake as a pet is a definitive pre-crime sign

Our first pick, we're gonna go with owning a snake as a pet. Anyone who owns snakes, fucking pre-crime city. You're just waiting for the snake to just escape in your house and then kill you in your sleep... If you own a snake, I just assume at some point you will commit a crime. It's part of your DNA.

This is a subjective character judgment for comedy purposes.

Betting the over on Alabama basketball is a cheat code

Alabama by the way is a cheat code if you want to get in on it. It's just betting their overs. They just never stopped missing. This has been like, oh, two weeks now they're over under for the first half was 45 and a half points last night. They scored 69 in the first half.

The 'cheat code' status of a team's over is based on a specific run of games; eventually, Vegas adjusts the lines.

Tua Tagovailoa's market value is non-existent relative to his contract

Everything's on the table for the Dolphins. Tua could be a fullback. What would you... What do you think the Dolphins would say yes to for a trade for Tua? Like a sixth round pick for Tua? A jugs machine? I don't know what the hell would Tua's market be?

The Dolphins' internal view on 'everything being on the table' is a subjective claim about team strategy.
