It is 'winner talk' for a fan to want their team to lose for a better draft pick

If you're friends with someone who's a Bears fan, if you have a family member's Bears fan who thinks that they should somehow try to win week 18, you need to tell 'em to shut the fuck up. This is not loser talk. No, no, no. It's actually winner talk to try to actually set up your franchise to be in the best possible position to get the most possible picks going forward.

The Bears lost in Week 18 and secured the #1 overall pick, which they traded to the Panthers for a massive haul (including the pick that became Caleb Williams).

The college football playoff semifinals were the best in history

The best college football playoffs we've ever seen. Semi-finals. I like how people were tweeting, like is it a hot take to say these are the best semi-finals we've ever seen? No, they usually always suck. And those were two incredible games.

The games were objectively some of the highest-scoring and closest in CFP history to that point.

The 2022 Buccaneers are flawed but have learned the lessons they need for a playoff run

It looks like the Bucks have actually looked at what's made them flawed and then realized there are certain things that we can do good. Let's lean into those things... as if it turns out that still throwing deep balls to Mike Evans works.

The Bucs lost their first playoff game 31-14 to the Cowboys, so the 'lessons learned' didn't lead to a run.

Mike Evans is a Hall of Famer

Mike Evans is a hall of famer. Yeah. Which is crazy cuz it's, it doesn't, it feel like he's had a very good career, but then when you stop and you look at it, you're like, holy shit. He's, he's got 81 touchdowns in his career. If he gets to a hundred, he'll be top 10 all time in touchdowns. Everyone in the top 15 is in the Hall of Fame. Every single year he's been in the NFL nine years. Every year he's gotten over a thousand yards and he's not even 30 yet.

Evans extended his streak to 10 consecutive seasons in 2023 and is widely considered a future Hall of Famer, though his career is still active.

College basketball has five absolutely dominant teams this year

We have five, you could even maybe go to six, just absolutely dominant teams. Michigan, UConn, Duke, Arizona, and Florida that are playing at such an insane level.

The dominance of these teams will be tested in the upcoming NCAA tournament in March 2026.

Florida can win the national championship because they can shoot threes now

Florida though, I've been talking about Florida for three weeks. They could shoot threes now. They absolutely kicked [Arkansas's]... They just throttle teams. All four of [Duke, Michigan, Arizona, Florida] would be the best team in the previous five years.

Whether Florida wins the title or performs as an elite team will be decided by the end of March Madness.

Miami of Ohio will make the tournament even if they lose in the conference tournament

I'm saying right now, winning every... If they go undefeated in the conference, that is so hard to do. I think if they go undefeated in the conference and then lose in the conference tournament, I think they will be in.

This will be resolved on Selection Sunday, March 15th, 2026.
