The US Men's National Team will definitely get out of the group stage in the 2022 World Cup

The knockout rounds are going to be interesting. I'm not too concerned with them [USMNT] getting out of the group. It's really up to them. I mean, they have a favorable draw.

The USMNT finished 2nd in Group B and advanced to the Round of 16.

The Jets and the Eagles were the media darlings of the 2022 NFL Draft

Right now I think if you're going to take the darlings of the draft, who are the media darlings of the draft? Because I think it's the Jets and it's the Eagles.

Post-draft coverage overwhelmingly praised the Jets (Sauce Gardner, Garrett Wilson, Jermaine Johnson) and Eagles (Jordan Davis, A.J. Brown trade).

The Houston Texans are morons for their draft strategy

It's very funny to me that everyone's spent a year over a year projecting the entire draft and they screwed it up because they forgot that the Houston Texans are morons.

Subjective opinion on franchise competency.

The Falcons are a trap team I'm going to talk myself into every year because of their skill players

The Falcons continue their quest to just have awesome players on all the skill positions with Drake London at wide receiver. Now I'm going to buy into the Falcons again, being like, how can you stop Drake London and Kyle Pitts?

The Falcons remained a mediocre team (7-10) despite their talent, showing PFT was right to be skeptical of his own optimism.

Ben Simmons' struggles in Philadelphia were a result of a lack of mental toughness and a generational shift in athletes

I just think it's a generational shift with some athletes, you know, the mental toughness aspect of it... Philly fans are probably the hardest fans to play in front of. You don't ever want to piss them off. Philly fans just want to see you working and just trying to be your best. So yeah, it was a tough situation.

This matches the consensus view of Philly fans and many observers regarding the Simmons/Sixers divorce.

Lionel Messi is a better and more magical soccer player than Cristiano Ronaldo

I respect the amount of work that Ronaldo puts in... he's top notch pro. But Messi, I mean, what the guy has done on the field, it's magic. You don't see that in a player. And I don't know when, and if we will ever see a player that is quite like Messi again.

Michelle Akers is the greatest women's soccer player of all time

All time goats... I would say probably Michelle Akers. Yeah. She just—talk about somebody that would run through a brick wall, play on one leg if she had to, she scored in some of the biggest moments. She was definitely somebody I looked up to.
