If I were starting FUBU in today's social media landscape, the brand would be ten times bigger than it originally was

If you had to do it again today, your, you know 20 year old Daymond John, do you think it still works... This would be, I would, it would be, it would be 10 times bigger. Really? Yeah. You remember, I didn't, the internet didn't even exist. Social media didn't exist. So I had to physically walk up and get into people's face to sell them something.

This is a hypothetical claim that cannot be proven, though it aligns with modern brand scaling trends.

The Dallas Cowboys are going to win the Super Bowl this year

I can't see a world that Dallas don't win at least 15 games and CD Lamb should be a first rounder and Amari Cooper should be a first rounder and Dak Prescott... should be a first rounder... they are going to win the Super Bowl.

The 2021 Cowboys won 12 games and lost in the Wild Card round to the 49ers. They did not win the Super Bowl or 15 games.

Ezekiel Elliott will return to his elite form this season because he finally has his six-pack back

Zeke is going to be back to physique this year... the dude has the six pack back. He doesn't have the belly anymore. physique-iel Elliott. He looks skinny. He looks, it looks very skinny.

Elliott rushed for 1,002 yards and 10 TDs in 2021. While a solid season, it was not a return to his league-leading 'elite' form from his first few seasons.

A head coach finding out their star quarterback is injured is the most devastating news possible

I need every head coach to be miked up when they get that type of news, because it is absolutely devastating. It's like stuff... I'm talking, you could tell them their family just got kidnapped and they'd be like, all right, well, we'll figure out after practice, but [the trainer] walking up being like, 'Hey, it's a muscular thing. We don't know.'

Subjective hyperbole about the relative importance of football vs personal life for NFL coaches.

Take $500,000 over a dinner with Jay-Z

[$500,000]. Because most likely Jay-Z has said it a million times in various different ways. So it would be like me saving $500,000 just to spend two days looking at every single interview he's ever done... why do I need to listen to him? I could save $500,000.

Purely subjective preference of a successful entrepreneur.

Parents should buy a share of stock that matches every toy they buy their kids

Buy him a little Caterpillar truck, right? Buy him a share in Caterpillar. Ooh. And then show him what that truck is equal to... Buy him a share in maybe Disney and a Disney product that he likes... he's gonna start to understand [finance].

Financial pedagogical advice.
