Jay, you will be our senior Iceland correspondent. Done... Jay Mariotti has been named senior Icelandic correspondent for Pardon My Take.

This was a joke hire meant to mock Mariotti's career decline and his odd comments about Icelandic content.

The mosquito is the state bird of Minnesota

State bird here is the mosquito, too. That's the only place you could say that.

The Common Loon is the state bird of Minnesota.

If a fantasy league member dies after the draft but before the season starts, their players should go to waivers

I would say if the guy passes away after the draft and before the year starts, his whole team goes on waivers. Yeah, I'd say you do that.

Alabama will lose at least one game due to a brutal road schedule at Tennessee and LSU

The other top three teams in the SEC are LSU, Tennessee, and Ole Miss, and they play each of those three on the road. So it's a brutal schedule for Alabama... I'm going to say the two toughest ones are Tennessee because Tennessee is on the road... and then, of course, the LSU game.

Alabama went undefeated in the 2016 regular season, including wins over Tennessee and LSU on the road. They only lost the National Championship game.

Spain is entering a period of absolute soccer dominance and will win the next Euro.

They won the Euro two years ago. They won the World Cup. They're probably gonna win the Euro in two years. They're just different generation dominating soccer.

Euro 2028 has not happened yet.

Goals scored in the World Cup third-place game should not count toward the Golden Boot.

I also had one bone to pick. The third place game, which is hilarious that they still do this... The fact that those goals count for the Golden Boot is such bullshit. That's stupid. That should not count. Like that's not a real game.

This is a subjective opinion about tournament rules.

LeBron James will announce his free agency decision tonight.

I'm fully expecting him to announce at 9:00 PM tonight. Yep. Like shit like that where it's like, I went to a movie on Thursday night. I was like, oh, LeBron's gonna fucking announce during the movie. He's, he's now fucking us... I think that's what's gonna happen. I think he's gonna decide tonight.

Big Cat predicted that LeBron James would announce his free agency decision at 9:00 PM on July 20, 2026. However, reports from July 20 and July 21, 2026, indicated that James had not yet made his decision, and his agent stated on July 21 that he did not know when the announcement would occur.
