Straight audiences will enjoy 'Bros' because it is a funny R-rated comedy, regardless of the gay lead characters

What you realize is one of the things straight people love about the movie is that in addition to it being really funny, I hope it is a peak behind the curtain at a culture that you think you know about... one of the straight guys in the audience, they asked him, 'What did you think of that?' And he said, 'I kind of felt like I was watching Jackass... it was so fucking funny I didn't care.' I actually thought that was amazing.

The movie was critically acclaimed but underperformed at the box office, with Eichner later tweeting that straight people simply didn't show up in some theaters, which complicates this earlier optimistic take.

Tua Tagovailoa should not have played against the Bengals on Thursday night

The bottom line is I think we talked about this on Sunday night, so it's not like news to us. [Tua] probably shouldn't have been playing tonight. It was scary, especially going into it. We knew that at least we had talked about it, that Tua should not have been in that game.

Tua did suffer a significant concussion during this game, and the NFL/NFLPA later updated concussion protocols as a direct result of this specific sequence of events.

Jeff Bezos should invent an anti-concussion helmet for the NFL

Why hasn't Jeff Bezos tried to invent a machine that can definitively tell you if someone is concussed? Like a helmet that definitively makes it so you can't be concussed? He's invested in football now. He really has gotta put his money where his mouth is. Save football, Jeff Bezos.

The technology for an 'anti-concussion' helmet that prevents all concussions does not currently exist, though safety improvements are constant.

The Bengals are still playing clunky and disorganized football

The Bengals, I don't wanna say they're like back because it does still feel like there's, they have drives where it's just very clunky and disorganized.

The 2022 Bengals did eventually find their rhythm, finishing 12-4 and reaching the AFC Championship game.
