The NCAA will be defunct within five years due to NIL and conference realignment

With all the conference realignment and stuff going on and all of the NCAA. And NIL, I think that the NCAA will be defunct within five years. I like it. I liked that. So it was the sec just gonna become the, the NCAA. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's what it feels like. That's where is trending anywhere where it's all just money they're taking out the administrative school part of it.

The five-year mark is 2026. While the NCAA still exists, its power has been massively curtailed by court rulings (Alston) and the autonomy of the Power 2 (Big Ten/SEC). It is effectively a shell of its former self, but not literally defunct.

Coach K will win 'Retirement of the Year' multiple times because he wants a year-long 'suck my dick' tour

I'm going to say coach K is going to win it this year. And he's going to win next year when he actually does retire because coach K has said that he's going to retire, but he needs everyone to suck his dick for an entire year before he actually retired. He could probably be talked into coming back... then he could have a dynasty of retirement.

Coach K did indeed have a long farewell tour throughout the 2021-22 season and retired after the 2022 Final Four.

The European Super League would have been sick and a great idea

I honestly kind of missed the idea of the super league. I, again, it's bad. We understand football's a sport. Everything else is a business, but super league would have been sick and low key. Imagine Man City against Barcelona on a Wednesday, like twice a year on a Wednesday that you would have. That's just a great idea. Great idea.

The Super League collapsed within days of its announcement in April 2021. This is a subjective opinion on its potential quality.

Dan Wolken thinks sports should not exist until he personally approves of them

[Dan Wolken] thinks it's sports and he doesn't think that sports should ever exist. He thinks that balls, every ball should be deflated in America until such time that Dan Wolken personally approves of it.

This is a satirical characterization of Wolken's caution regarding sports during the pandemic; it cannot be literally verified.

Aaron Judge is an absolute choke artist after his WBC performance

Aaron Judge just sucking yet again. And he's gonna get, he's gonna lose some pinstripes over this. I think that's only fair... absolute choke artist. Expected nothing else from him. And he delivered nothing.

Subjective opinion on Judge's 'clutch' gene, though Judge did strike out in a key moment in this fictional 2026 WBC scenario.

The Broncos should go all in and try to win now with Bo Nix on a rookie deal

I kinda like this for the Broncos just being like, hey, we have, we have Bo Nix right now under a rookie deal. Bo Nix is a good quarterback. ... take the window and try to win. Right now.

This is a subjective strategy opinion that cannot be strictly proven right or wrong.

Justin Fields going to the Chiefs is a career-ending mistake if he fails to perform in Andy Reid's offense

Is this a mistake by Justin Fields? Because if he, if Patrick Mahomes doesn't come back and he has to start and it doesn't go well, like if, if you can't do it in Andy Reid's offense, it's over. Right?

Logical football analysis; failure in a gold-standard system usually ends the 'high potential' narrative for QBs.
