Ben Simmons is a 'penny stock' worth investing in right now

I'm kind of low key addicted to Ben Simmons because he really is like a penny stock. If he could figure it out a little bit, it would be incredible. Like he would be, you know, a starter on the all-star team because he has all the other stuff. Defense, passing, dribbling... If he could just figure out when to shoot and have the balls to shoot, I'm telling you invest now.

Since this take, Simmons sat out a year, was traded to Brooklyn, and has seen his career derailed by injuries and continued shooting hesitancy, his 'stock' value has actually plummeted.

The Dallas Cowboys are going to win the Super Bowl this year

I can't see a world that Dallas don't win at least 15 games and CD Lamb should be a first rounder and Amari Cooper should be a first rounder and Dak Prescott... should be a first rounder... they are going to win the Super Bowl.

The 2021 Cowboys won 12 games and lost in the Wild Card round to the 49ers. They did not win the Super Bowl or 15 games.

Ezekiel Elliott will return to his elite form this season because he finally has his six-pack back

Zeke is going to be back to physique this year... the dude has the six pack back. He doesn't have the belly anymore. physique-iel Elliott. He looks skinny. He looks, it looks very skinny.

Elliott rushed for 1,002 yards and 10 TDs in 2021. While a solid season, it was not a return to his league-leading 'elite' form from his first few seasons.

A head coach finding out their star quarterback is injured is the most devastating news possible

I need every head coach to be miked up when they get that type of news, because it is absolutely devastating. It's like stuff... I'm talking, you could tell them their family just got kidnapped and they'd be like, all right, well, we'll figure out after practice, but [the trainer] walking up being like, 'Hey, it's a muscular thing. We don't know.'

Subjective hyperbole about the relative importance of football vs personal life for NFL coaches.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
