Bill Belichick might opt out of the 2020 season to sabotage Josh McDaniels and tank for Trevor Lawrence

My big-time stay woke on this is that Bill Belichick, he might opt out if coaches can opt out... he's got so many players on defense that are out, right? If Bill Belichick opts out McDaniels probably takes over, right? They go 4-12. All of a sudden no one wants to sign Josh McDaniels to a head coaching contract next year. He keeps the team together maybe gets Trevor Lawrence.

Belichick did not opt out of the 2020 season, and the Patriots finished 7-9, missing out on Trevor Lawrence.

The MLB will successfully implement a 'virtual bubble' by banning players from going out to dinner

The MLB is trying to get to a virtual bubble. They have new rules that basically... if you get caught doing these things you can't play anymore. Yep. They actually did that. So, thanks for listening, Rob Manfred.

The MLB did finish its 2020 season successfully outside of a strict physical bubble, though it did have some early outbreaks.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.
