I am on a hot streak of fixing things around the house

In the last year or so, I got hot. I was touching things, and instead of breaking them, I was fixing them... I've even amazed myself. And you know what the key to it is? It's like anything else. When you get a little more confident, I'm willing to take a chance that I won't break what I'm trying to fix.

His wife immediately counters that he only put in a light bulb, making the 'streak' somewhat subjective.

There is nothing worse than getting shut out in the NHL playoffs

And there's nothing worse than getting shut out in the NHL playoffs. It's awful. You know what else is bad is overtime hockey when your team is in it. If another person's team is in it, it's great... But when it's your team, you just want to eat a gun.

This is a subjective emotional assessment of sports fandom.

Home ice advantage does not exist in the NHL playoffs

You know what I don't like about playoff hockey is that there's basically no home ice advantage. It doesn't exist. The ice is the same everywhere you go.

Statistically, home teams do still win slightly more often in the NHL playoffs, but it's famously more volatile than other sports.

The Bulls will give the Celtics a really good series in the playoffs

I think the Bulls are going to give the Celtics a really good series.

The Bulls actually pulled off a massive upset in games 1 and 2 before Rajon Rondo got hurt, eventually losing the series 4-2. Big Cat was correct that it was a 'really good' (competitive) series.

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.
