The ACC is rigged and the referees are bullshit

Also, my Fyre Fest is the ACC refs are fucking bullshit. ACC's rigged. I'm going to get an investigation. What they did to Louisville on Tuesday night will not stand. So I stand with Louisville and all the people who are angry about that game.

There is no evidence the ACC is rigged; officiating complaints are standard in college basketball.

You can safely drive 70-80 MPH on icy highways as long as the road is straight

Thankfully, a lot of the highways going out into the south are straight... once we hit Ohio, which was mostly straight highway, you can still carry 70 to 80 miles per hour safely. Whereas going around the corners, we had to go like 50 miles. So with this ice, the big thing will be stopping. Not many two people are on the roads, so no one's going to stop short in front of us. So as long as we just cruise, we're going to make awesome time.

Driving 80 MPH on ice is extremely dangerous regardless of how straight the road is, as any loss of traction or need to brake would result in a total loss of control.

The NFL will force Stephen Ross to sell the Dolphins because match-fixing is the only thing owners will actually vote a peer out for

I think that they're going to force him [Stephen Ross] to sell the team. I think this is the only way that an owner could be forced to sell. Because owners have so many skeletons in their closet that they're never going to vote another guy out... But when you start involving like changing the outcomes of games and bribing coaches... I feel like this is a great excuse for owners to try to sell the team or try to vote them out.

Ross was suspended and fined $1.5 million following an investigation into tampering and tanking allegations, but he was not forced to sell the team.

The Washington Commanders name won't matter once the season starts

The team name, I think I said it on Wednesday's show, but, like, people get mad about it for 24 hours. No one, like, will remember it, care. Then football will be back, and we'll be like, who cares? It's not going to be – I don't think it makes or breaks anything.

The name remains controversial and unpopular with the fan base years later, and there are ongoing discussions about changing it again under new ownership.

Miami of Ohio 100% deserves to be in the NCAA Tournament despite their first-round loss

I think a hundred percent they should be in. We need to just focus on the fact that there, I believe 31 and one and not do anything about strength of schedule. If you're able to go an entire season without losing a game that's hard to just wake up every day and not stumble once. I wanna see what happens when they play their first quad win one game in the middle of March.

This is part of the satirical 'Future' bit; Miami of Ohio was not 31-1 in 2026 (or 2024).

Conference tournaments are bad for top teams because they don't improve your seeding and lead to unnecessary fatigue

I'm kind of done with the conference tournaments. Like they just fuck you. It doesn't make your seed better and you end up being more tired today. If you have to play four games, you're just gonna get screwed.

The value of conference tournaments for high-seeded teams is a perennial debate in sports media.

Kyler Murray will be the next Sam Darnold now that he's with the Vikings

Kyler Murray is a Viking. We all kind of expected it. It happened. He's going to be the next Sam Darnold. The NFC North now has three number one picks at quarterback with Kyler Murray, Caleb Williams, Jared Goff. Kind of cool.

Kyler Murray did not sign with the Vikings; this is part of the episode bit.
