Shohei Ohtani is on one of the most irrelevant franchises in professional sports

Shohei Ohtani has been incredible... and he just completely lost by being on like one of the more irrelevant franchises in all professional sports. Like Anaheim, there's no reason that nobody cares about Anaheim, right?

Subjective opinion on franchise relevance.

Hard Knocks has successfully made me believe in the Detroit Lions

I'm hopeful for Detroit. I think hard knocks has successfully made me believe in the Detroit lions. Now I I'm going to be probably very wrong about that as anyone who's ever rooted for Detroit lions knows, but I'm at that point where like, yeah, I can see, I can see the lines making some noise.

The Lions finished 9-8 and missed the playoffs in 2022, though they did finish the season very strong, making the take partially right in spirit.

Honolulu blue is an electric shade of blue that doesn't get enough credit

Just as an aside, watching the hard knocks with the lions, Honolulu blue doesn't get enough shoutouts for being a great shade of blue. Like it's always Carolina blue. Yeah. Honolulu blue is electric.

Subjective aesthetic opinion.

A 9-8 record for the Detroit Lions would be the equivalent of a Super Bowl

If they can get you to believe in the Detroit lines, like even if they just go, if they go nine and eight, that's a super bowl for Detroit. Like what a story that would be.

The Lions actually finished exactly 9-8 in the 2022 season.

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.
