The NBA rigs series to make them go longer and more exciting, and fans shouldn't complain about it

The NBA, when it needs a series to go a little bit longer, we'll send a guy [Scott Foster] and you'll make sure that it goes a little bit longer. I like that. People need to quit doing is complaining about [it] being rigged. They rig it to make it better. It's Buffalo Wild Wings. They rig it to get us as close as seven-game series as possible. I want more, right?

This is a subjective theory about league officiating and entertainment strategy.

The Suns are still going to win the NBA Finals despite the Bucks' Game 3 win

I do think that the [Bucks]... they have enough guys to make this a series. I do still think the [Suns] are gonna win, but that was a great performance to come home.

The Bucks won the next three games to win the series 4-2. The Suns did not win.

I'm officially over the 8K 'fan-cam' because it makes fans perform for the camera

I'm done with AKA [8K]—the fans and AK, I'm over it... the best fan moments that you have is when the fan doesn't know the camera's on them. With 8K, they have to get close enough so that you know that the camera's on you. So it's everyone going crazy for the fan for the camera. It's basically like watching a jumbotron.

Personal preference on broadcasting technology.

Conor McGregor is finished as a legitimate top-tier fighter

So him, him as a legitimate fighter that is over... he hasn't won, he's won one fight since 2016. And the guy he beat had has lost or has not won a fight in his last six fights. So he, he's not, he's just not going to be able to fight at a high level.

As of late 2024, McGregor has not won a high-level MMA fight since this take was made, largely due to injury and inactivity.

Aaron Judge is an absolute choke artist after his WBC performance

Aaron Judge just sucking yet again. And he's gonna get, he's gonna lose some pinstripes over this. I think that's only fair... absolute choke artist. Expected nothing else from him. And he delivered nothing.

Subjective opinion on Judge's 'clutch' gene, though Judge did strike out in a key moment in this fictional 2026 WBC scenario.

The Broncos should go all in and try to win now with Bo Nix on a rookie deal

I kinda like this for the Broncos just being like, hey, we have, we have Bo Nix right now under a rookie deal. Bo Nix is a good quarterback. ... take the window and try to win. Right now.

This is a subjective strategy opinion that cannot be strictly proven right or wrong.

Justin Fields going to the Chiefs is a career-ending mistake if he fails to perform in Andy Reid's offense

Is this a mistake by Justin Fields? Because if he, if Patrick Mahomes doesn't come back and he has to start and it doesn't go well, like if, if you can't do it in Andy Reid's offense, it's over. Right?

Logical football analysis; failure in a gold-standard system usually ends the 'high potential' narrative for QBs.
