I'm betting the St. Peter's money line against Purdue despite the physical mismatch

In the game against St. Peter's... there's no reason why I should bet St. Peter's against this team... with the physical mismatch... But I'm still gonna do it. Cause fuck it. Cause I ride. Sometimes you just gotta take the part of your brain that thinks that it's being smart and tell it to shut the fuck up.

PFT was right to trust his gut; St. Peter's beat Purdue 67-64.

Wisconsin's loss to Iowa State wasn't heartbreaking because they were a flawed team that was going to lose eventually

Wisconsin was obviously, I don't think that they were going to win it all this year. There were a flawed team... it was going to happen anyway... I was realistic about this team. I knew they weren't like that crazy talented. It just sucks because March for your team is so much fun.

The Badgers did indeed lose to 11-seed Iowa State in the Round of 32.

The NCAA rigged the Duke vs. Michigan State game for Coach K

I think the fix was in. NCAA rigged. I think that Tom Izzo and Coach K... Coach K has three friends, one the sports information director at Duke that keeps all of the bodies buried in the right locations... Jim Boeheim... and Tom Izzo. They're like the Big Three.

While Duke won, there is no evidence of a rigging conspiracy involving Tom Izzo.

Purdue is on the doorstep of a Final Four with a clear path through St. Peter's

On paper you have to think you have a Jaden Ivey, who's a lottery pick. You have two guys in Williamson and Edey who were fucking monsters. You'd have to think Purdue 12-point favorites to get to the Elite Eight to be on the doorstep of a Final Four.

This take turned out spectacularly wrong as St. Peter's upset Purdue in the Sweet 16 to become the first 15-seed in the Elite Eight.

Arm length doesn't matter for a tackle as long as the quarterback doesn't have tiny hands

Arm length doesn't always dictate everything. If you have a guy that's got short arms that's playing tackle, it's not the end of the world unless maybe you also have a quarterback with tiny hands, in which case it's like synergy factors. Right. Where if the guy with short arms can't block the guy and then the guy with tiny hands gets hit, more likely to fumble.

Whether specific arm length correlates to fumbles based on QB hand size is largely theoretical and difficult to prove or disprove.

You should never order appetizers at a steakhouse to maximize your sides

I'm of the mindset now that you don't need any appetizers at steakhouses. It's, it's a good place to run Zero apps... You don't need the calamari at a steakhouse... The sides at a steakhouse are elite. The mashed potatoes are always elite... mac and cheese always elite at a steakhouse, you wanna maximize your sides to go with a steak.

This is entirely a matter of personal dining preference.

Trent Williams is the rare offensive lineman who is actually fun to watch play

Trent Williams is a joy to have on your team. He's just a fucking bully. He's also the rare offensive lineman where you have fun watching him play. Like after the ball was snapped, my eyes would just go to Trent Williams because it's like this guy, we might throw an interception, but Trent Williams might punch a guy in the throat.

This is a subjective opinion about entertainment value.
