Deshaun Watson is a much better pocket passer than people realize

I think he's a good pocket passer. I think that that's one thing that people, when you think of [Deshaun Watson], you immediately think of a guy that can move around and get away from pressure, but he is good in the pocket.

Watson's career stats prior to his suspension showed high efficiency from the pocket.

The AAF outrating the NBA proves America loves football over everything else

We [the AAF] outrated the NBA game, the primetime NBA game, showing that America loves football over everything else, which we already know and we agree with.

The AAF debut on CBS did indeed outrate the NBA's primetime game that weekend, drawing 2.9 million viewers.

The AAF should schedule their season to end exactly when March Madness begins

What would be great is if they did the schedule... when you get to February, you can play the remainder of your season so that the Super Bowl of the AAF ends right before March Madness begins. Because I'm just being totally honest... there are certain points in the year of sports that I just won't choose a minor league football team... over what I usually watch.

The AAF folded mid-season in April 2019, never completing its first year or reaching a Super Bowl. Future spring leagues like the UFL have struggled with this exact scheduling conflict.

Tom Brady is a prisoner of his own success because of his extreme superstitions

Tom Brady's success is so successful and won so many Super Bowls, how many little things like this do you think he does in a day-to-day basis where he's like, well, it's helped me get to where I'm at? He's basically stuck in the most superstitious life of all time... He's permanently stuck upside down because he keeps winning Super Bowls... He's a prisoner of his own success.

Brady's superstitions and rigid lifestyle are well-documented (TB12 method, etc.).

The English Premier League is more exciting than American sports because of the high consequences of relegation and promotion

That's the beauty of it. That's why I love the English Premier League because it's relegation, it's promotion, the consequences are so much higher.

Houston is the most underrated food city in the world

Houston is the most underrated food city in possibly the world. Traffic and humidity suck, but for food and fans, Houston is the greatest city.

Highly subjective opinion about culinary quality.

Modern NFL players and trainers are smarter for not lifting heavy weights to avoid the high risk of injury

I do think that players and trainers have gotten a lot smarter about like, you don't need the risk reward for getting up to those levels of weights. It doesn't make any sense because you have a much greater chance of hurting yourself than you do of gaining that 0.01% chance of improvement.

Reflects modern sports science trends.
