Telling a man 'you're mad' when he's trying to make a point is a top-tier emasculation move

There's nothing more irritating actually than like being told that you're mad about something that you're not. And then your whole little world around you is like, people like, look how mad you are. Look how mad you are when you're not actually mad... Therefore our last pick is telling someone that they're mad. Just be like, you can't control your emotions. You're mad.

This is a subjective take on psychological manipulation.

Scott Frost's claim about Nebraska's offensive line puking 15-20 times per practice feels like a lie

Scott Frost announced that his team is puking. His offensive line is puking 15 to 20 times per practice. That doesn't feel like it's... I don't know. When it was announced, everyone on Twitter was just like, that feels like a lie.

The claim was widely mocked and Frost eventually had to clarify that it was an exaggeration, making Big Cat's skepticism correct.

Al Michaels does not have a 'Thursday night voice'

I don't think he brings too much gravitas to Thursday night. Well, he doesn't have a Thursday night voice, especially... He's got a Sunday night or a Monday night voice. He does not have a Thursday night voice. There are certain people that have Thursday night voices out there. Al Michaels, no. I do not want to hear him on a week... I don't want to have to go to work for a full another day before the weekend when I hear Al Michaels' voice.

This is entirely subjective based on auditory preference and scheduling psychology.

The Masked Singer started the rumor that Tom Brady was a contestant during his training camp absence

I've gone like overly woke on this now. And I think that it's a rumor that was started by the Masked Singer because people are definitely gonna be tuning in trying to figure out is that Tom Brady. It's the one show that you can basically get all the way through the episode being like maybe it is Tom Brady.

Brady was not on the Masked Singer (he was actually on vacation in the Bahamas), and there's no evidence the show started the rumor, though they likely benefited from it.

Arm length doesn't matter for a tackle as long as the quarterback doesn't have tiny hands

Arm length doesn't always dictate everything. If you have a guy that's got short arms that's playing tackle, it's not the end of the world unless maybe you also have a quarterback with tiny hands, in which case it's like synergy factors. Right. Where if the guy with short arms can't block the guy and then the guy with tiny hands gets hit, more likely to fumble.

Whether specific arm length correlates to fumbles based on QB hand size is largely theoretical and difficult to prove or disprove.

You should never order appetizers at a steakhouse to maximize your sides

I'm of the mindset now that you don't need any appetizers at steakhouses. It's, it's a good place to run Zero apps... You don't need the calamari at a steakhouse... The sides at a steakhouse are elite. The mashed potatoes are always elite... mac and cheese always elite at a steakhouse, you wanna maximize your sides to go with a steak.

This is entirely a matter of personal dining preference.

Trent Williams is the rare offensive lineman who is actually fun to watch play

Trent Williams is a joy to have on your team. He's just a fucking bully. He's also the rare offensive lineman where you have fun watching him play. Like after the ball was snapped, my eyes would just go to Trent Williams because it's like this guy, we might throw an interception, but Trent Williams might punch a guy in the throat.

This is a subjective opinion about entertainment value.
