The Red Sox middle relief is their biggest postseason concern

I'm a little concerned, to be honest with you, about the middle reliever. You know, I think we need to approach the opposition better when it comes down to it... once Sale got out of the game in the 6 or 7, those inning and a half, I want to make sure that we are covered.

The Red Sox bullpen actually performed remarkably well in the 2018 postseason, particularly Nathan Eovaldi and Craig Kimbrel, en route to a title.

The Dolphins continue to be candy-ass frauds who always suck

The Patriots probably are good, and the Dolphins continue to be their candy-ass fraud selves. I'm so sick of the Dolphins. I think we need to put an official disclaimer every year. Like, hey, the Dolphins might start hot. Just remember, they always suck.

The Dolphins started 3-0 but finished 7-9 and missed the playoffs in 2018.

The Patriots are officially back

The Patriots look pretty good, I guess... The Patriots are kind of back, I think. This is their annual thing where they make us think that they're done with the dynasty.

The Patriots won Super Bowl LIII later this season.

The Chicago Bears are the best team in the NFC and will win the Super Bowl

They happen to be playing against the best team in the NFC, future Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears. So you can't really say that Fitzmagic is over. They just were in a buzzsaw situation.

PredictionFootballHotSarcastic
The Bears finished 12-4 but lost to the Eagles in the Wild Card round (the 'Double Doink' game).

I don't mind if a baseball player is selfish as long as they produce every day

People always talk about being selfish, playing the game. I don't mind if you're selfish. The longest you bring something to the table every day.

This is a personal philosophical take on the sport.

Bryce Harper will sign with the Phillies

To be honest with you, I think Philadelphia... Philadelphia's trying to win a World Series the next few years.

Bryce Harper signed a 13-year, $330 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies in February 2019.

I tried to hit triples in 2016 because my wife promised me special 'rewards' for them

My wife made me some offer behind the scenes. That's why I always want to accomplish a triple. One game I hit two. I don't know if you remember that. My wife take off running.

Ortiz did hit 1 triple in 2016 (his final year) and 2 in 2013, so he's likely conflating seasons, but confirms the incentive existed.
