LeBron James considering a meeting with the Warriors is a savvy leverage move against the rest of the NBA

If he opens up the Warriors, it's like everyone's got to compete with that. Everyone's got to basically be like, 'yeah, LeBron, we'll go get every free agent you want'... So he just got instant leverage over everyone, which he already had, but now it's even more.

LeBron eventually signed with the Lakers; the Warriors meeting never happened or resulted in anything serious, but the move served its purpose as a media cycle dominant story.

I'm betting on the Eagles to cover the spread in Super Bowl 52

I'm actually going to bet on the Eagles. I think they're going to cover the spread. I really am banking that the Patriots are going to win and the Eagles are going to cover.

The Eagles won Super Bowl 52 outright (41-33), so they easily covered the spread.

The Patriots will win Super Bowl 52 with a score of 24-20

I'm going to go 24-20 Patriots. I think it's going to be a relatively low scoring game.

The Eagles won 41-33. PFT was wrong on the winner, the score margin, and the total points (under).

Fletcher Cox will be the Super Bowl MVP if the Eagles win

I wouldn't be shocked if there was a defensive MVP in this game. And if the Eagles win, I would put money on Fletcher Cox getting it.

Nick Foles won Super Bowl MVP.

Shohei Ohtani currently holds both MLB's longest active on-base streak AND longest active scoreless innings streak simultaneously

As of Wednesday, with Shohei Ohtani getting on base and throwing six scoreless innings today, MLB's longest active on-base streak is now up to 43 games. MLB's longest active scoreless innings streak among starting pitchers is now 28.2 innings pitched. Shohei Ohtani has both of them. That's insane.

Big Cat self-corrects noting the scoreless innings streak ended that day, but the 43-game on-base streak was accurate as stated. The core claim about Ohtani's dual dominance was real at the time.

Chet Holmgren has never been anything but a one-seed in his entire basketball career

Do you know that Chet Holmgren in his entire basketball career has never been anything but a one seed while playing? In high school at Minnehaha Academy 2018, one seed; 2019, one seed; 2021, one seed; Gonzaga 2022, he was a one seed; 2023 he missed the NBA season with an injury; and then 2024, 2025, and now this year with the Oklahoma City Thunder, one seed, every single team he's played for has been a one seed.

This checks out — Holmgren's teams have consistently been one seeds throughout his career. The OKC Thunder were indeed a one seed in 2026.

Nikola Jokic holds the fastest triple double in NBA history at 14 minutes and 33 seconds

Jokic holds the record for fastest triple double in NBA history, achieving the feat in just 14 minutes and 33 seconds. The previous record was 17 minutes in 1955.

This stat appears to be AI-generated and potentially inaccurate — the fastest triple double records are hard to verify precisely, and the '1955' comparison seems dubious. Marking as pending since this is a specific verifiable claim that's hard to confirm.
