LeBron James and the Lakers will win 50 games this season

I have the Lakers over 47 and a half... LeBron's going to win 50 games. I just think there's no way. I think Brandon Ingram is very, very good.

The 2018-19 Lakers finished with only 37 wins after LeBron suffered a groin injury on Christmas Day and the team chemistry imploded.

America is sick of Aaron Rodgers winning games in predictable, dramatic fashion

He will win a game late, and he will do it in dramatic fashion, and he will drop dimes and all that. I'm sick of it. I think America is sick of it, to be honest, if I'm just going to speak for America here.

This is subjective, but Rodgers' style of late-game heroics continued to be a major NFL storyline for years, though 'America' was likely more entertained than sick of it.

Jason Witten was hired by ESPN solely to mend the relationship between the network and NFL owners

Jason Witten is in place to mend the ESPN-NFL relationship, which makes sense... they put him in there, and it doesn't really matter if he's bad for the audience. It just matters that the rest of the owners and Roger Goodell likes him.

While Witten's hire was widely criticized for his lack of experience, the specific 'mending relationships' motive is a matter of corporate strategy that hasn't been officially confirmed but remains a strong industry theory.

The NFL referees are being bullied by the internet into not calling the game by the rules

The refs are getting bullied by the blogosphere and the twittersphere into not calling the game by the rules. I would have liked to see [Clay Matthews] get penalized for that [hit on C.J. Beathard].

Whether refs are 'bullied' by social media is inherently subjective.
