Tyler Glasnow is the nastiest pitcher in the MLB

I think Tyler Glasnow might be the nastiest pitcher in the league. Like on two pitches too, like way above average fastball, way above average breaking ball. He throws a 93 mile an hour cutter that nobody can hit. That dude is filth.

This is a subjective evaluation of a player's performance/stuff.

The Baltimore Ravens are frauds until they can win from behind

The Baltimore Ravens are frauds. They are F-R-A-U-D-S frauds. They panic, they look terrible on Monday Night Football. The stat was 18 and 0 with a ten-point lead, 0 and 5 with a ten-point deficit. They can't come from behind. They're very good team, but kind of like Oregon back in the day with Chip Kelly... until I see it, I don't trust that the Ravens offense can work when it gets in a hole.

The Ravens finished 11-5 and won a playoff game but were eliminated in the Divisional round after falling behind the Bills, somewhat validating the 'play from behind' critique.

The Baltimore Ravens are the Houston Rockets of the NFL

Are the Baltimore Ravens the Houston Rockets of the NFL? Their analytics are Mickey Mouse-ish. By any objective measurement the Baltimore Ravens are awesome... and then in the playoffs the Chiefs are going to beat them by 40. They shit pump all the bad teams, but when the chips are down... they fall short.

Both teams at the time were known for high-efficiency regular seasons and early playoff exits against the eventual champions.

I agree that the 3-0 Bears are frauds and not an exceptional team

I have a lot of Ravens fans be like, 'dude, the Bears are frauds.' I agree that they [the Bears] kind of are. I don't think the Bears are like an exceptional team. I won't apologize for three and oh, while also thinking like, 'yeah, this might not end so well.'

The 2020 Bears started 5-1 but finished 8-8 and were widely regarded as a mediocre team that lucked into a playoff spot.

If a pitcher calls themselves a 'bad motherfucker' on the mound, they have to follow it up with a fastball, not a slider

[Amir Garrett] mouthed 'I'm a bad motherfucker' and then he threw a slider. If you say that, you got to bring the fastball, right? If you say 'I'm filthy,' then you can throw the slider, because then you're implementing the filth. But if you drop like a 'nasty' or something, you're going heater.

This is a subjective interpretation of baseball etiquette.
