Low-budget MLB teams like the Pirates and Reds would just pocket a Dodgers-sized budget rather than spend it on players

For all the teams that cry poor, I really do wonder if you just could [give them the budget]. Snap your fingers and be like, 'Pirates, you have the budget that the Dodgers have. Reds, you have the budget that the Dodgers have.' I don't think any of those teams would actually spend the way the Dodgers do. They just take a profit. Which is bullshit.

This is a hypothetical about owner behavior and inherently subjective.

The Bears are just going to win the Super Bowl

And I, in that moment [after the Cole Kmet touchdown] was like, I think the Bears are just gonna win the Super Bowl. They're just gonna, they're just gonna pull Miracle After Miracle, because that play was so dead.

The Bears lost to the Rams in overtime shortly after this moment and were eliminated from the playoffs.

The Seahawks will smoke the Rams in the NFC Championship

I also think Rams or Bears are getting smoked by the Seahawks. [Watching them on Saturday night], the thought definitely crossed my mind as like, I don't know how the Bears [or Rams] could potentially do anything against the Seahawks defense in Seattle.

Hank predicted the Seahawks would 'smoke' the Rams in the NFC Championship. The Seahawks did beat the Rams 31-27, but it was a close, competitive game decided in the final seconds — not a smoking. Correct on the winner, wrong on the margin.

Drake May is statistically the worst quarterback in the NFL on 3rd and 6

We've discovered that Drake May is statistically the worst quarterback in the NFL over the past two seasons... on third and six. I think he's 34th or 36th in the league. And he has a 27% completion percentage. League average is about 50.

This is a verifiable statistical claim regarding Drake May's performance on a specific down and distance over a two-season sample.

American sports dominance is officially over

Are we as a country washed? because this also is on the heels of shams announcing SGA back to back MVP and I think it's been like nine years, I believe eight years since an American has won the NBA MVP... and Aaron Rai, it's the second European to win a major this year and Europeans are now two and oh in majors for the first time since 1934.

While hyperbolically stated, the fact that international players have dominated NBA MVPs (Jokic, Giannis, Embiid, SGA) for nearly a decade is factual.

The Steelers will be stuck with a 7-10 win ceiling with Aaron Rodgers

Aaron Rodgers is back. I feel bad for Steelers fans... he's not the same quarterback... the Steelers just put a finite floor and ceiling on their season. Right? And it's somewhere between seven and 10 wins. That's what we're thinking.

Outcome depends on the 2026 NFL season results for the Steelers.

The Chicago White Sox are no longer a joke and could win the AL Central

White Sox are good. They're actually like, this is finally like, it's kind of, they're not a joke. They've got some sluggers. Big time dude... I don't know what the price is for them winning the AL Central, but they, they, they are not a bad team.

White Sox performance in the 2026 MLB season is ongoing.
