Every NBA team should have a 13th roster spot reserved for a 40+ year old legend

There should be just a 13-man on every team that's like a million dollars. Everyone gets it, and it has to be, the player has to be 40 years or older. Just so we can see, like, imagine Shaq just standing on a sideline. Just every now and then, just let him go in.

The NBA has not implemented this, though the 'Udonis Haslem' role essentially exists unofficially for many teams.

Cowboys fans should be freaking out about Dak Prescott needing a second MRI

But QB Dak Prescott is planning on getting another MRI... if you're a Cowboys fan, you have to be freaking out right now.

While Dak did miss the preseason and some time later in the season (calf), he started 16 games in 2021. The 'freak out' over this specific shoulder MRI proved to be slightly overblown as he played Week 1.

Dak Prescott should have teammates tackle him in practice to stop overthinking his injury

If I'm Dak... even if my shoulder is still not good to go right now, I would still have people do, like, tackling drills against me in practice where I would get hit because you've got to get that first hit out of your system to stop thinking about it all the time. I would just have people, like, tackle me into a big mat so I didn't hurt my shoulder falling on it.

Dak Prescott did not do this. He returned to play in Week 1 against the Bucs and threw for 403 yards, showing the 'psychological' hurdle was handled through traditional rehab.

Preseason football performance is like 'Play-Doh' that fans can mold to fit whatever narrative they want to believe about their team

Preseason really is just, it's like a Play-Doh that you can just mold to however you want to feel about your team going into the regular season. You can twist what you're watching in a preseason game to fit however you want. If Justin Fields comes out and he's awesome, I'd be like, well, this is incredible. If he stinks, I'd be like, well, COVID, preseason.

This is an observation about fan behavior and the nature of preseason football, which is inherently subjective.

American sports dominance is officially over

Are we as a country washed? because this also is on the heels of shams announcing SGA back to back MVP and I think it's been like nine years, I believe eight years since an American has won the NBA MVP... and Aaron Rai, it's the second European to win a major this year and Europeans are now two and oh in majors for the first time since 1934.

While hyperbolically stated, the fact that international players have dominated NBA MVPs (Jokic, Giannis, Embiid, SGA) for nearly a decade is factual.

The Steelers will be stuck with a 7-10 win ceiling with Aaron Rodgers

Aaron Rodgers is back. I feel bad for Steelers fans... he's not the same quarterback... the Steelers just put a finite floor and ceiling on their season. Right? And it's somewhere between seven and 10 wins. That's what we're thinking.

Outcome depends on the 2026 NFL season results for the Steelers.

The Chicago White Sox are no longer a joke and could win the AL Central

White Sox are good. They're actually like, this is finally like, it's kind of, they're not a joke. They've got some sluggers. Big time dude... I don't know what the price is for them winning the AL Central, but they, they, they are not a bad team.

White Sox performance in the 2026 MLB season is ongoing.
