Game speed is much more important than 40-yard dash speed

I think game speed is a completely different than 40 speed. ... There's guys that can run 4.3 but they go out there and they don't look 4.3. And there's guys that run 4.5 that when they go out there, they're playing fast.

This is a widely held belief among modern NFL coaches and scouts, supported by GPS tracking data (Next Gen Stats).

Phil Mickelson is actually a pretty good gambler for only losing 10% of $1 billion

If we dive into Phil's gambling career, he's lost I think a hundred million dollars. Right? ... I'm gonna say that Phil Mickelson is a pretty good gambler. He's only lost 10%.

Phil Mickelson is not one of the most famous people in the world

Joe Rogan, Pardon My Take, Tiger Woods, like is whatever it is. A million X Phil in terms of, you know, celebrity and recognizability. ... I wouldn't say that if Phil Mickelson was walking down the street, do you think he would get stopped endlessly? I don't think endlessly.

The definition of 'most famous' is inherently subjective, though in terms of social media following and general population recognition, Phil is far below the global top 1%.

The USWNT coach is more to blame for the World Cup exit than Megan Rapinoe

I've reached a point now where I don't necessarily blame Megan Rapinoe. I blame the coach for even putting her on the roster. That's how bad she was.

Vlatko Andonovski resigned shortly after this, which aligns with the sentiment that coaching was the primary issue.

I should have been the first wide receiver taken in the 2021 NFL Draft

I'm going first. Yeah. I'd be a fool not to say yourself. I mean, all the receivers will tell you that. ... You'd be a fool not to say yourself.

While Amon-Ra is an All-Pro talent, Ja'Marr Chase and Jaylen Waddle have also been elite, making 'first' a highly debatable claim.

Quarterbacks aren't really 'dogs' because they don't hit people

For quarterbacks it's, it's different. I mean, you can't, he can't really hit anyone ever enough to be a dog. I feel like you gotta have some type of physicality for a quarterback. ... are you really a dog? I mean, you're just throwing balls around.

This is a subjective interpretation of a sports slang term.
