Bengals rookie Shamar Stewart has all the leverage in his contract holdout

Shamar Stewart Bengal's first round pick... could reenter the 2026 NFL draft. If he remains unsigned and the Bengals don't sign him by the deadline... Shamar Stewart has all the cards. He can just train for a year.

A rookie re-entering the draft is extremely rare and usually results in lower draft stock, so 'all the cards' is likely a hyperbole.

The Oilers will start Stuart Skinner in Game 5 despite his benching

He's gonna start game five. I think they'll go back to him. I mean, he got 'em there. Obviously the last two, whatever four periods have not looked good, losing six-one and then tonight in the first period. But I think they'll go back to him.

In the 2024 Stanley Cup Finals (which the transcript events describe), Skinner did start Game 5 and helped the Oilers win.

Hockey has tricked fans into loving overtime by simply taking away the fourth quarter

I have a question for you... has hockey tricked us into saying free hockey just by taking away the fourth quarter. And then whenever it gets to the fourth quarter, we're so grateful to have a fourth quarter.

This is a subjective observation about fan psychology.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

The Cavaliers-Knicks series is over after Game 1

Series over, you can't lose that game if you're the Cavs. When it went into overtime, we said the Cavs have to win this. This is must win. You can't give this up. All time choke.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.
