Fans will hate watching sports with no crowds after just two days

Two days into baseball and stadiums... with no fans in the stands and guys sitting like eight seats apart in the bleachers people going to go like this blows. I don't like this everyone hates everything. No one's gonna like it.

While people missed crowds, the return of sports was largely celebrated as a distraction, rather than universally hated after two days.

There will be sports played in some format this summer

I think that there it sounds more and more like there will be Sports at some point this summer. We don't know what that formats going to look like. We don't know if there will be fans.

MLB, the NBA bubble, and the NHL return-to-play all occurred in July and August of 2020.

Jerry Rice and Randy Moss are the two best receivers in NFL history and it is not a debate

Jerry Rice and Randy Moss... you agree they're just on there absolutely? They're one and two and that's not even a debate. That's not up for debate.

This is a widely held subjective consensus, though the order and inclusion of others like Don Hutson can be debated.

Calvin Johnson is a better receiver at his peak than Terrell Owens and Marvin Harrison

I think [Calvin Johnson] is a better receiver at his Peak then T.O. and Marvin are. If you look at it has a higher yards per reception than everyone else that I just listed. He also has the the greatest receiving season in 122 receptions 1964 yards, and he was playing on the Lions.

This is a subjective evaluation of talent vs. career statistics.

Rory McIlroy's Masters win was primarily 100% relief

It was almost all relief. And the thing that Andy North described to me... you feel so much more relief than joy... it was so obvious that sure there's joy in there... but clearly it was like, just thank God I did it.

Rory himself later admitted it was a burden, supporting this view.

Now that he's won the Masters, Rory McIlroy could stack three or four more majors

This is the damn burst that now frees them up to be truly like, fuck it. I'm gonna go do like... he's got a ton of runway in front of him. He could stack three or four more of these.

This will be proven over the next several years of golf majors.

Maryland needs Florida's Clayton to sprain an ankle to win the Sweet 16 matchup

I think we need Clayton to sprain his ankle. Not badly, not bad. I'm not rooting for it and I'm not rooting for an injury like that guy's got such big balls... Maryland needs to play its best, the best be the best version of itself and I think they can win the game.

Florida defeated Maryland and advanced to the Final Four. Walter Clayton Jr. was healthy and named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player, leading Florida to the national championship.
