Counterfeit wine is the perfect crime

It's the perfect crime. Really, even though he's in jail, I know that sounds very counterintuitive because you got caught, but finding a way to sell to get a bunch of rich white dudes drunk and then pulling a scheme on them while they're drunk is genius.

Subjective opinion on the brilliance of a criminal scheme.

September 20, 2020 will be the perfect sports day

September 20th is going to be a hell of a day in sports. Yeah, it's going to be the day when all the sports line. We're going to have NBA playoffs. We're going to have hockey playoffs. You've got also golf the US Open that's the final round of that on that day.

On September 20, 2020, there was a full slate of NFL Week 2 games, the final round of the U.S. Open (golf), Game 2 of the NBA Western Conference Finals (Nuggets vs. Lakers), and the Stanley Cup Finals Game 1 was the following day, but MLB and playoffs were in full swing. It was one of the busiest sports days ever.

Hockey is not one of the major four sports

No hockey doesn't count hockey doesn't count. Not one of the major four sports. What's the fourth? MLS?

This is a subjective classification of sports relevance, though the 'Big Four' traditionally includes the NHL.

The NBA return plan is effectively the 'Zion Williamson rule'

The New Orleans Pelicans are right now the 10th seed... they want to figure out a way to get Zion West and I am all for that. It's the Zion rule. Adam Silver could have just gotten in front of the nation and been like 'Hey guys Zion, have you heard of him? Kind of a big deal and we want to make sure that he's involved in this no matter what.'

While Adam Silver never officially called it that, the media consensus was that the play-in inclusion of the 10th-seeded Pelicans was highly beneficial for TV ratings via Zion.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.
