Ethan Happ will never miss another free throw if he thinks the word 'wet' before shooting

I need you to when you get to the free throw line just say in your head wet right before you shoot just go wet and it just like it will change everything... You actually will not miss another free throw for the rest of the season. Isn't that wild?

Ethan Happ continued to struggle from the free throw line. In the 2019 NCAA tournament game vs Oregon, he went 0-for-2.

Josh Rosen should be eligible for Rookie of the Year in 2019

Josh Rosen or maybe Kyler Murray throwing a rookie connection. Yes, Rosen is absolutely, he should be eligible for Rookie of the Year next year.

NFL rules do not allow a second-year player to be eligible for Rookie of the Year.

John Elway has figured out that his draft mistakes were caused by quarterbacks being too young

So I think Elway's figured it out. So he's learned from his mistakes. He's getting all these tall quarterbacks that aren't very good, but the problem is he's drafting them. So he's had such a terrible record in the draft that he's figured out that the problem is that they were too young.

The Flacco era in Denver was a disaster, and Elway's struggle to find a QB continued until he eventually stepped back from GM duties.

You cannot actively tank in the NFL because players won't buy in

I actually think the NFL, you can't really actively tank. You can't say before the season we are trying to lose because it's such a hard league to stay in for the players. And if the players know that, it's all going to fall apart very quickly.

This is a subjective organizational philosophy debate, though many analysts agree NFL players rarely tank due to short career spans and non-guaranteed contracts.

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.
