It is not a 'sham' if Nikola Jokic wins a 3rd straight MVP without making the Conference Finals

Everyone's getting pre-mad right now about Jokic winning a third straight MVP... they're like, if he wins an MVP and they don't get at least the conference finals, this is a sham. Why? Again, it's a regular season award. Like that's just what it is.

Jokic didn't win a 3rd straight (Embiid won in 2023), but he did lead the Nuggets to a championship that year, rendering the 'playoff fraud' argument moot.

Aaron Rodgers will definitely continue playing football

Trying to figure out if he wants to keep playing football. Spoil alert he will. Yep. Wants to continue playing. Probably win an MVP.

Rodgers did continue playing, being traded to the Jets shortly after.

Aaron Rodgers will be phenomenal next season and probably win an MVP

I'm fully prepared for him to go back to the Packers and win an MVP. Yeah. Because it feels like this is just the cycle that we're in. And he's probably gonna be phenomenal next year.

Rodgers tore his Achilles four plays into the season and did not win MVP or play phenomenally.

The drama surrounding Brandon Miller will actually help his NBA draft stock

My other spin zone is I actually think this helps his draft stock. Think about all the attention he's getting. Everyone knows who he is and then after, you know, all eyes are on him, he drops 40.

Miller was drafted #2 overall, as high as most projected him before the incident, suggesting it didn't hurt and potentially highlighted his 'mental toughness' to scouts.

The Brewers have the World Series sealed

I think the Brewers have this thing sealed up after an insane Monday night where they were just awesome.

The episode says Tampa Bay extended the series to Game 5, so the prediction was not yet resolved at the time of this transcript; the eventual World Series result is not established in the provided context.

There will be no MLB lockout

They'll figure it out. There's too much at stake. They'll figure it out. It's not 1994 anymore. They'll figure it out.

The transcript is from October 2026 and the provided context does not establish whether MLB games were ultimately missed.

A 24-team College Football Playoff is starting to make sense

I'm starting to grow on it. My problem is, I'm thinking about it in just this year where we actually had parity.

This is a subjective opinion about playoff format and cannot be definitively judged.
