I am taking the over on the Astros season win total because they'll get on base from HBPs

I want to find out what the line is on the amount of times that the Astros are going to get beaned this year. And I'm going to take the over on it no matter what... I feel like I might take the season win total over for the Astros just on that alone.

Partially correct. The Astros led the MLB in HBP per game in 2020 (33 in 60 games), though they finished with a losing record (29-31).

Tom Brady hates everyone in the Patriots organization and wants to get out fast

I'm reading that as Tom Brady hates everyone in the Patriots organization is looking to get out of town as fast as possible.

While Brady did leave for the Buccaneers shortly after this, the claim that he 'hates everyone' is hyperbole, though relationship tensions were well-documented.

The Buccaneers have the weirdest uniforms of any potential Tom Brady landing spot

The buccaneers [are one of the teams that would piss off Patriots fans most] because I actually think that there are the weirdest uniform that I could ever imagine Tom Brady in. [The Vikings] purple would be jarring, but that's a list.

Brady did eventually sign with the Buccaneers and wore their uniforms for three seasons.

Bill Belichick is interested in Andy Dalton to prove he can win with anyone

A lot of people have been saying the reverse that Bill Belichick would be interested in Andy Dalton because if you can win a Super Bowl with Andy Dalton, then everyone will say wow. This guy can do anything he walk on water.

The Patriots did not sign Andy Dalton; they eventually signed Cam Newton after Brady left.

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.

Jeffrey Simmons makes the Bears Super Bowl contenders

I thought they could win the Super Bowl before Jeffrey Simmons. Now I really do.

The 2026 NFL season and Super Bowl outcome have not yet been resolved from the episode date.
