James Harden and Chris Paul will be fighting over the ball within two months

I give that about two months before we get James Harden doing something weird and being like, 'hey, I need the ball.' And Chris Paul's like, 'well, I'm the point guard and I need the ball.'

The Harden/Paul pairing was incredibly successful in its first year (2017-18), finishing with the NBA's best record. While they eventually clashed in 2019, Big Cat's two-month window for conflict was way off.

Phil Jackson's master plan was to get paid for screwing up the Knicks

Phil's master plan was to get paid for screwing up a franchise and he's getting paid. He's just like [fucking] the ground, having a good time, getting paid for it. He played James Dolan like a fiddle.

Jackson was fired with two years left on his $60 million contract, effectively getting paid a massive sum not to work for the team.

Chris Paul hated Doc Rivers because of the preferential treatment given to Austin Rivers

Chris Paul hated Doc Rivers ever since he brought Austin Rivers on and basically didn't yell at Austin Rivers and treated him exactly like his child.

Reports at the time from ESPN and others heavily suggested that the relationship between CP3 and Doc soured due to Doc's handling of his son Austin.

The 2017 Cubs are fine and will win the NL Central

The Cubs are fine until they finish 81-81 and probably win the Central. I have decided I'm going to keep telling myself the Cubs are fine.

The Cubs did win the NL Central in 2017 with a 92-70 record, surpassing Big Cat's 81-81 floor prediction.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
