LeBron James was born without a clutch gene

The poor man was just born without a clutch gene, and we see it again and again and again. MJ or LeBron? Stop it. Don't even go there because it's offensive to me. You would put those two in the same sentence because LeBron could not carry Jordan's sneakers.

Whether LeBron is 'clutch' is highly subjective, though stats often show he is statistically very successful in late-game situations.

Brock Purdy is just flat out good

Brock Purdy's just good. He has wheels. He is moving around. He's throwing guys open. Yeah, he's good.

Purdy has consistently performed as a top-tier QB since taking over for the 49ers.

The Phillies are in a downhill spiral and their window is closed

Philly's lost the game. They looked like shit. It's exact same thing that went on from 2009 to 2011 of the Phillies... and then what I am saying, yes, it is the same thing. Like it is just a downhill spiral with no World Series. There's no hope. There's no hope. And the window's closed for every team.

The Phillies have been a perennial contender, but this is a subjective view on their future window.

The Mets are a team of destiny

The Mets are too fucking good. The Mets are really fucking good. They're a team of destiny. I've said it and I'll say it again.

The Mets had a legendary 'Grimace' fueled run that took them all the way to the NLCS, far exceeding expectations.

Michael Jordan would destroy LeBron James in a one-on-one game

I think [Michael Jordan] would destroy [LeBron James] in one-on-one. That's just me. [Jordan] would just out-intangible him. He would out-trash talk him. LeBron could not carry Jordan's sneakers.

Inherently subjective and impossible to prove as they played in different eras and one is retired.

Tim Tebow would have won a lot of games if an NFL team ran his college offense

If I run his college offense, I'm going to win a lot of games in the National Football League. He'll never make a Pro Bowl, but I want that guy on my team... nobody ever gave him a shot [after Denver]. Nobody ever gave him a shot. I, I just believed in him winning football games.

Tebow was given brief stints with the Jets, Patriots, and Eagles but failed to stick as a QB in conventional systems.

Dak Prescott is not a Super Bowl winning quarterback

I'm just not buying. I don't believe I've, I've seen enough. I know what he is. And what especially he is not, he is two and five in the postseason. And every time a big moment has come in a postseason game that is begging to be won, he's not there. He's safe, and you know, he's going to put up gaudy enough numbers to be somewhere on the fringe of the MVP race... but they'll be just good enough to be a factor, just good enough to be relevant.

Dak Prescott did not win the Super Bowl in 2024. The Cowboys went 7-10, Prescott was injured and missed significant time, and the team didn't make the playoffs. Skip's assessment was validated.
