Hosting a Super Bowl is not worth it for a city long-term financially

If you look at the, the long term like financial impacts of hosting Super Bowl, it's not worth it. It's not, it's stupid. It's really not. You just, it Same thing with the Olympics or the World Cup. You just bend over backwards for people.

Many economic studies support this, though it remains a debated topic among urban planners.

The Bears will likely end up in Arlington Heights despite the Indiana stadium news

The Indiana has voted to go forward with taking the bears. Having the Bears, holding the Bears in Hammond. While it doesn't actually mean anything, because I still think they're gonna be in Arlington Heights. It is the closest they've ever been to potentially finding a place.

The Bears' stadium saga is ongoing as of early 2026, but the Indiana move remains a secondary possibility to Illinois options.

In 20 years, everyone will regret the decision to put every NFL stadium indoors

I firmly have, have come around to the idea that in 20 years from now, we are all going to regret the fact that we put every single stadium indoors.

This is a subjective long-term cultural prediction that cannot be definitively proven but reflects a common sentiment among purists.

The Super Bowl should just rotate back and forth between Las Vegas and New Orleans permanently

No city should bend over backwards to try to get a Super Bowl if they're not already capable of handling it... The Super Bowl should at this point just be Vegas back and forth. New Orleans. Vegas. I'd be fine with that.

The NFL currently prefers a wider rotation to reward various markets and new stadiums.

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.
