Anthony Richardson's first preseason tape will decide his fate in my eyes

That tape is going to basically decide Anthony Richardson's fate in my eyes. If he throws one touchdown pass I'm in. Or one cool like stiff arm or long run. I'm all the way in.

Big Cat said Anthony Richardson's preseason tape would decide his fate 'in my eyes' — this is a personal opinion about how he'd evaluate a player, not a verifiable outcome.

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 goal allowed by the US goalie was the most embarrassing possible

What about the goalie? Yeah, I mean he... that was the most embarrassing goal that I've ever seen. Possible.

While subjective, the blunder by the US goalkeeper (Freeze/Turner) was widely mocked as a 'MAC football' level mistake.

The USMNT is the 'James Franklin Penn State' of soccer

People were making very mean jokes online that we were James Franklin, Penn State. And it is actually perfectly appropriate because if you look at who we played, we beat the teams we're supposed to beat... and then we absolutely got ass fucked by the team that was better than us in Belgium. We are not who we thought we were.

Subjective comparison.

We just suck at soccer as a country and that's okay

My take is we suck at soccer and that's okay. Like, I don't care that we suck at soccer anymore. I'm going to root for the US team. I'm gonna get excited when we're in a World Cup. I'm gonna get hyped up and it's gonna be fun to watch. And then I'm gonna be reminded that we suck at soccer and that it's just gonna be like, okay, yeah, that's okay.

Subjective perspective on American soccer.
