Race walking is the most metal sport in the Olympics

I think I've actually changed my tune on race walking... because it is the funniest looking sport by far, but it's insane. The dude that is the best in the world at it... he was just shitting himself during the race... his body just gave up. It's actually the most metal sport.

Whether a sport is 'metal' is entirely subjective, though the description of the physical toll fits PFT's definition.

JaVale McGee is the greatest American athlete of all time

JaVale McGee... three-time NBA champion and Olympic gold medal. In my opinion, the greatest American athlete.

JaVale McGee is a successful role player, but he is not the greatest American athlete by any objective measure.

Peyton Manning will become the Commissioner of the NFL

I thought that Peyton Manning's speech points us in one direction only, and that is that he wants to follow in the footsteps of his dad and become commissioner of the NFL. So that when Arch [Manning] gets to the league, he can implement some weird draft rule.

Peyton Manning has focused on media (Omaha Productions) and shows no immediate signs of seeking the commissioner role, though it remains a theoretical future path.

The ACC tournament belongs in Greensboro and it's not the same anywhere else

I grew up loving the ACC tournament. I don't love it anymore because it's not in Greensboro. The ACC is a North Carolina League. It's a tobacco league. Put it back in Greensboro.

This is a subjective preference about the historical home of a conference tournament.

The Ravens failed Max Crosby's physical intentionally to pivot to Trey Hendrickson

It's almost like they had it ready to go. They pivot to Trey Hendrickson. It feels like they had, by the letter of the law, they had the ability to fail [Crosby] for the physical because he's not ready to play. Technically the Ravens didn't break any rules, they just used it to get someone better that just came available.

This is a satirical bit; Crosby and Hendrickson did not have these transactions in real life.

The NFL will launch a spring game within a matter of years

We're a matter of years away, not decades, from the NFL doing a spring game. I think I might be into that. One spring game, just like college football. It would be kind of sick.

This is a long-term prediction about NFL business strategy.
