Gonzaga is America's team because everyone's main team is secondary to them

I would describe us [Gonzaga] as America's team because we're always like, right? You have your main team, but everybody kind of cheers for Gonzaga, right?

Subjective claim about national perception of a mid-major powerhouse.

Matt Ryan fucking stinks

what we learned is everyone's fantasy teams went down the tubes during the playoffs and Matt Ryan fucking stinks.

While Matt Ryan was coming off an MVP season in 2016, his 2017 season was a significant step back (20 TDs, 12 INTs). However, calling him 'stinks' is objectively harsh for a mid-tier starter at the time.

The Packers will beat the Browns by double digits in Week 14

I think this is prime. Oh, wow. You want to put a lock on it? Yeah. It is now. ... I'm going to take the Packers. This is where they start their run, and they're going to piss everybody off, and then they're going to win a playoff game.

The Packers won the game 27-21 in overtime. PFT's prediction of a double-digit win was incorrect.

The Browns lost to the Packers 27-21 in overtime.

John Stockton never stretched before games or practices during his career

John never stretched. I don't think anybody would believe it. He'd warm up, go up and down maybe twice with a basketball and then go 'Alright, let's go' and just bust everybody's asses. Unbelievable... he played 16 years without missing a game. So I guess it worked for John.

Stockton's durability and lack of traditional stretching routines are well-documented parts of his NBA lore.

A major college basketball coach always knows when players are getting paid

There's no way a coach of a major program doesn't know exactly what's going on at his program. 100%. Totally agree. ... Especially with the sneaker companies doing that type of stuff, you have to kind of know that somebody's getting greased on the backside.

While often suspected, the degree of specific knowledge by head coaches is a matter of debate and varies by program.

Losing in college hurts more than the pros because you aren't millionaires yet

In professional sports, if you lose, there's no real losers in the NFL, MLB or NBA hockey... you're all millionaires... it's like, well, I'll go home in my Maserati and call it a night. And college, it's different.

This is a subjective perspective from a former high-level athlete.
