Mark Cuban is a genius for 'controlling' the media to protect his players

Mark Cuban, this is sneaky genius. [He's a] player's owner. All the players want to come play for him because they know he's got your back on Twitter. If someone is even remotely, even like a little bit mean on Twitter, he's going to CC the bosses and tell them that they're all in deep shit.

The Mavs have historically been a destination for certain players, though Cuban's Twitter antics are generally viewed as a distraction by most media professionals. Subjective in nature.

Jimmy Kimmel intentionally planned the La La Land / Moonlight Oscar mistake

Even if Jimmy Kimmel didn't plan this, which I think he did, he should be blamed for it for all the shitty Jimmy Kimmel pranks he did in the past.

The mistake was famously attributed to a PwC accountant handing out the wrong envelope, not a prank.

The Oscars would be better if the celebrities were made gradually more uncomfortable

I would like to watch the Oscars a lot more if instead of treating the celebrities to things, they gradually made them more uncomfortable as the show went on. Like crank the heat up five degrees every hour or something like that. So they were just a big sweaty mess at the end.

This is an inherently subjective comedic proposal.

Villanova is the only team I trust in college basketball this year

The field is wide open. I actually think the only team that I trust this year is Villanova, which is funny how the world has changed in the last couple years.

Villanova lost in the second round of the 2017 tournament to Wisconsin, making this trust misplaced.

College basketball has five absolutely dominant teams this year

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.

The dominance of these teams will be tested in the upcoming NCAA tournament in March 2026.

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.

Miami of Ohio will make the tournament even if they lose in the conference tournament

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.
