The best basketball game plan for a team that can't shoot is to stop shooting and hunt for the double bonus

The point of me saying to the guys don't shoot is we needed to get in the double bonus because we suck at shooting. Nicki Smokes just decided to take the game into his own hands... If we had double bonus, we probably would've won the game. We'd had two shots at every single one of them.

This is a subjective coaching philosophy, though the team lost while ignoring the advice.

Every NFL owner is essentially Jerry Jones, they just choose to stay quiet most of the time

That was one of my big takeaways that Terry Pegula is, or it's not even Terry Pegula specifically. I think that, I just forgot that every owner is actually Jerry Jones. They're just Jerry Jones that choose not to speak every week.

This is a subjective characterization of NFL owners.

Sean McDermott deserves an apology for what he accomplished in Buffalo despite the leadership above him

Maybe we actually owe Sean McDermott a lot more credit. Yeah. Maybe we owe him an apology because we remember what it was like before he got there and what he was able to do with the bills. Nothing short of miraculous.

The Chargers will instantly improve offensively with Mike McDaniel and Jim Harbaugh

This is a big move for the Chargers though. Yeah. This is a very exciting move for them. They're going to instantly be better offensively, I would imagine.

The season outcome is unknown as of this future-dated transcript.

The Ravens are abandoning their draft-and-develop philosophy because they've drafted poorly lately

The Ravens feel like the team for however long, I mean, pretty much their entire history, it's like what they do is they draft really well. They don't have to do these type of moves. And then they do this move... maybe the Ravens haven't drafted as well recently. So now they do have to join everyone else and be these guys.

Subjective analysis of team building strategy.

The Ravens have a three-to-four-year window with Lamar Jackson to go all in and win a Super Bowl

Are the Ravens basically saying Lamar Jackson, he's 29, he's got, we got like a three, four year window where we're gonna have to go all in here? You're kind of forking the road. Are you trying to keep your draft capital to keep reloading around Lamar Jackson? You're like, 'Hey, let's go win this right now.'

The Ravens' success in this window depends on winning a Super Bowl before Lamar Jackson hits his 30s.

The NFL center market is currently the hottest position market in the world

The center market actually feels like it's the hottest market out there. The Packers signed their center who started seven games signed for 11 million a year. The center market just might be the hottest market in the world.

While 'hottest in the world' is hyperbolic, the sentiment reflects the actual 2026 free agency center market trends.
