Giancarlo Stanton is a bum

Giancarlo Stanton, I'm ready to say he's a bum. No pinstripes for you, Giancarlo. If it were an April game between the Miami Marlins and the Atlanta Braves, I'm sure you would have hit a home run in a big spot.

Stanton's tenure with the Yankees remained controversial with fans due to injuries and postseason streaks, though 'bum' is a subjective harsh label for a former MVP.

An 8-8 record will win the NFC East in 2018

However, the NFC East is an absolute dumpster fire. I'm pretty sure 8-8 wins it, and you're playing against the Eagles at home on Thursday night. If you win that game, you now are the favorite to win the NFC East.

The Dallas Cowboys won the NFC East with a 10-6 record in 2018, while the second-place Eagles were 9-7. 8-8 would not have been enough to win the division.

The Yankees should fire Aaron Boone because anyone would be better

You probably should fire Aaron Boone, and you will get someone better than him because everyone is better than him. Anyone. Luis Severino bringing him out for the fourth inning in game three on Monday night was maybe the most inexcusable thing I've ever seen a manager do.

Boone was not fired after the 2018 season and actually stayed for many years, though he remained a frequent target of fan ire.

Giancarlo Stanton should change his name back to Mike Stanton to fix his hitting performance

Giancarlo Stanton needs to change his name back. That would do him a lot of good.

There is no scientific basis for a name change improving baseball statistics.

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 series has just begun as of the episode date.
