Sean Manaea's new delivery has made him unhittable despite his career stats

Sean Manaea sucked. And then he just did that one thing to switch it up and now no one can hit him. If you're bad, just do that. Everyone on the Phillies had great numbers against Manaea. Everyone on the Dodgers had great numbers against Manaea, but it doesn't matter 'cause he's just a different pitcher this year.

Manaea was a key factor in the Mets' deep playoff run, validated by his postseason performance.

The Davante Adams trade was a masterclass in PR by the New York Jets

This is actually a masterclass in PR by Woody Johnson and his son, Erik Johnson and the entire New York Jets organization because they didn't even let the media have a single news cycle where we're talking about what happened on Monday night.

The trade did dominate the news cycle, though it didn't ultimately save the Jets' season.

Aaron Rodgers will eventually play for the Minnesota Vikings

I have been hoping for the last two years that the way this would all shake out for Aaron Rodgers is he goes to the Jets and then he goes to the Vikings. He does the Brett Favre. Like the guy he started his career out hating the most. It's like you become your parents at some point in life when you get older.

Aaron Rodgers went to the Steelers, not the Vikings. He did not do the Brett Favre move to Minnesota.

A head coach cannot have a beard as long as Jeff Ulbrich's

I don't think you could have a beard that long as a head coach. I'm just saying in terms of if you're looking at a head coach, like if you're mocking up a head coach, when are you drawing in a massive beard? The beard just doesn't give head coach vibes.

This is an entirely subjective aesthetic opinion.

Fettuccine Alfredo is fake Italian food.

Alfredo's not real Italian. There's no heavy cream in Italian cuisine. Alfredo's fake Italian. He [Rick Pitino] would maybe do a lemon chicken, maybe do a lemon chicken Piccata. But Alfredo... Cacho e pepe, that's Italian. But there's no heavy cream in Italian cuisine.

Whether Alfredo is 'real' Italian is a matter of culinary debate, though it originated in Rome, it is largely considered an American-Italian staple.

The Sixers are a bad team that loses every game Joel Embiid doesn't play

The Sixers suck. The Sixers are a bad team. Embiid's not playing. They lose—the Sixers are back to losing every game that Embiid doesn't play.

The Sixers' record without Embiid is a verifiable fact claim and a subjective assessment of team quality.

My 'dinner simulator' habit of building food orders and not buying them is a sign of good self-control

Instead of going and making myself a snack or making myself food or ordering food, I'll just pull up the apps, Uber Eats... and I'll just like put together an order of what I would order if I were to get something. And then I clear my cart and I go to bed... It's really good self-control.

Subjective self-assessment of his own behavior.
