DK Metcalf is wildly overrated as a wide receiver

DK Metcalf, he runs a straight line, but he's wildly overrated as wide receiver. ... He's not that good. I me and DK have a little thing, but I'm faster than him.

Metcalf remains one of the most productive receivers in the league, consistently putting up 1,000-yard seasons, making the 'not that good' take objectively questionable.

Pardon My Take is the fastest podcast in history to reach 1 billion downloads

We got to 1 billion without even hitting our 500th episode. ... Fastest to a billion. We're a fucking Rocket ship.

While the billion downloads is a verified Podtrack stat, 'fastest to a billion' is difficult to verify across all private podcast data, though they are certainly in the top tier.

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%.

While mathematically true regarding the percentage, describing a $100 million loss as 'good' is purely subjective and meant for comedic effect.

Phil Mickelson trying to bet on the Ryder Cup while playing in it is the craziest part of his gambling story

The craziest part wasn't the 1 billion... The craziest part was that Phil tried to call in a bet on the 2012 Ryder Cup... from the golf course trying to put in... $400,000 for the US team to win.

This is a subjective judgment on which part of a news story is the most 'crazy'.

The Chiefs-Rams Trent McDuffy trade is the first true win-win trade in NFL history

I think the only win-win trade in the history of the NFL might be the McDuffy trade. The one that just happened. Where the the Chiefs traded McDuffy to the Rams. The Rams don't give a fuck about first round picks. They got a great player and they still have their better first round pick from the Falcons. That to me is the first win-win trade in the history of the NFL.

Subjective assessment of trade value over time.

The Rams have proven that first-round draft picks outside of the top 10 don't matter

Are the Rams doing it correctly? Not that draft picks don't matter. Draft picks outside of the top 10 don't matter as much... instead of taking risks on a bunch of 21 year olds, let's get the known commodity knowing it's a crapshoot and just keep punting that down the line being like, we don't care.

This is a subjective organizational philosophy that has yielded mixed results for other teams, though the Rams have remained competitive.

Alec Pierce is about to get a massive contract in free agency

I think Alec Pierce is about to get paid too. I think the market on Alec Pierce is gonna be crazy. Possible Patriot. Possible Commander.

Pierce remained on his rookie contract through 2024; he did not hit free agency or get a 'crazy' bag in 2025.
