The Patriots filmed the Rams Super Bowl walkthrough

Off the record. [Big Cat: Did the Patriots film your walkthrough at the Super Bowl?] Yes. I'll say yes. And I think it gave him an edge as well. I mean, you know, we were really rolling that year, and no one covered us... TMZ never came out with that tape. You never saw that tape. [But] he [Terrell Buckley] was beating us to spots and he hadn't been there that long and he was on the street.

The Boston Herald originally reported this but retracted it and apologized in 2008. Bruce maintains his belief, but there is no definitive proof.

The new XFL is probably going to suck

I'll give you – it's going to suck. We all agree, right? It's probably going to suck. It's going to be shitty football. The problem with... The XFL is this weird thing.

The 2020 XFL was actually widely praised for its quality and rules before COVID-19 ended the season, so the 'sucking' part was largely incorrect.

The XFL will force the NFL to adapt and implement things that make the NFL better

But here's what it will do, is it's going to force the NFL to actually implement some things that make the NFL better. Because like Skycam, the XFL is going to do one or two things right, and the NFL is going to have to adapt and implement those things.

The NFL has since adopted several XFL-style innovations, including revamped kickoff rules and betting-friendly broadcasts.

Jerry Jones may have helped fund the XFL to screw over Roger Goodell

So it wouldn't shock me if Mr. Shadow Commissioner Jerry Jones maybe helped to fund the start of the NFL, gave him some of the seed money just to fuck Roger Goodell over.

There is no public evidence that Jerry Jones funded the XFL; Vince McMahon sold $100M of WWE stock to fund it.

NFL players could successfully perform on a plant-based diet

Absolutely. I think it would really help them. I think it'll transform them back to their rookie second season, third season type feel. And, you know, we're always looking for edge. And anytime you can attain more energy, or perform at the same level as you did in the first quarter, as you do in the fourth quarter, I think guys would really benefit from it.

Several players (like Cam Newton or Justin Fields) have since attempted vegan/vegetarian diets with varying degrees of success.

The 'Greatest Show on Turf' Rams would easily average 42 to 45 points per game in the modern NFL.

If we played in the same rules, I mean, we could easily score 42, 45 points a game this day and time.

This is a cross-era hypothetical that cannot be proven, though the 2013 Broncos hold the actual record at 37.9 PPG.
