The 2021 NHL playoffs are under a 'bird alert' because every bird-themed team has lost their opening games.

Sabermetric stat of the week for the NHL playoffs, the entire league's on bird alert. All bird teams have lost so far. It's just the penguins. That counts.

At the time of recording, the Penguins (the only bird team in the playoffs) had lost Game 1 to the Islanders.

The NBA's current play-in tournament structure for the 7th and 8th seeds is stupid.

I just hate that they — like, they had something good. Eight versus nine is good... When you add the 10th seed, it's stupid. And the fact that the 7th seed could potentially not make the playoffs is even dumber. I just hate the whole thing.

This is a subjective opinion on league structure.

The Wizards could beat the Brooklyn Nets in the first round of the NBA playoffs.

I think that if the Wizards beat the Celtics, if they end up matching up against the Nets, I think that the Wizards could actually beat the Nets in the first round.

The Wizards lost to the 76ers in five games in the first round. They did not face the Nets.

I would love to see a 'Subway Series' between the Knicks and the Nets in the Eastern Conference Finals.

I would love to see, ooh, a Subway Series, Knicks-Nets, Eastern Conference Finals.

This did not happen. The Nets lost in the Second Round and the Knicks lost in the First Round.

High Point is a very, very good basketball team

I actually think that High Point is a very, very good team. It was no fluke. They're a very good team.

In the context of the transcript, High Point has just upset a major power (Wisconsin), validating their quality.

Never bet an under in a Hawaii game

If Jake's listening, do not bet on any under in a Hawaii game.

This is a subjective gambling strategy.

The St. John's vs. Northern Iowa first-round matchup will be ugly as shit

You and I, they will suck the life of out of you. They've got the second best defense in the entire tournament. They, they are just kind of a pain in the ass to watch snails pace. This game feels like it's gonna be ugly as shit.

Pending the outcome of the game and whether it is high or low scoring.
