St. John's is going to be a force in the NCAA tournament

Johnnys are good people. Your defense is legit. I was looking at some numbers the other day and their profile is like, you know, it was like an Elite Eight or a Final Four team. Johnnys are good... They're gonna be a force in the tournament.

Outcome depends on St. John's performance in the 2025 NCAA Tournament.

Canada won't get the Stanley Cup back from the United States

We got the Stanley Cup. They're not getting it back.

The Stanley Cup remained with a US team - the Florida Panthers won in 2025 for the second straight year. No Canadian team won the Cup.

The NHL's Four Nations tournament completely outclassed the NBA All-Star weekend

The NHL absolutely bodied the NBA in terms of getting it right and what they did, what they've done with the Four Nations Tournament instead of the All-Star game versus everything that's been going on for the NBA All-Star game. It's not even close.

Subjective comparison of entertainment value and player effort.

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.

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.

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.
