If Tarik Skubal gets traded to the Dodgers, my Cy Young bet is in trouble

Tarik Skubal, who is the presumptive Cy Young favorite... is possibly gonna get traded... I bet it right then and there. So I have plus 400. I think he's like minus 125 now. But he might get traded to the Dodgers. If he gets traded to the Dodgers, I'm fucked. You don't want him in the National League. They only base their voting on what you did in your new league.

Skubal was not traded, stayed with the Tigers in the AL, and won the AL Cy Young award, making Big Cat's bet successful.

Jordan Love's training camp hold-in is one of the most selfish things a player has ever done

Jordan Love is the first player to do this. And it's disgusting. This is one of the most selfish things I've ever seen a player do... he's not going to practice with his team until he gets his new contract.

While it was a hold-in, calling it the 'most selfish thing' is a subjective characterization made for comedic effect.

Aaron Rodgers is currently less of a diva than Jordan Love

Is Aaron Rodgers less of a diva than Jordan Love? Aaron Rodgers at Training Camp, Jordan Love is not a training camp.

This is a subjective character judgment based on a snapshot in time.

Jordan Love will become the highest paid player per year in the NFL

The market is speaking right now and it's saying that Jordan Love, if they—do I think they will make him the highest paid like per year. I don't know what the, which is crazy 'cause he's—a grand total. He's gonna do, he's 32 years old. So, so, so making Jordan Love the highest paid quarterback after like, such a small sample. That's the free market in the NFL. Yeah. It, it's one of those situations where you have to pay him.

Jordan Love's extension (55M AAV) tied him with Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence for the highest annual average salary in NFL history at the time.

The Chargers' game against the Raiders is a must-win

The Chargers' season outcome and whether the loss effectively ended their season had not been resolved at the time of the episode.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.
