Mark McGwire is the top steroid user, and his 1998 home run title should have belonged to Sammy Sosa.

I got Mark McGwire. It's a shame what he did to Sammy Sosa that season because that should have been Sammy's home run title. So Mark McGwire is my number one.

McGwire did hit more home runs than Sosa in 1998 (70 to 66), so literals results favor McGwire, while the fairness is subjective.

Mark Teixeira is one of the most forgettable great players of all time.

Mark Teixeira, I think, goes down as the most forgettable great player ever. Like one of the most forgettable great players of all time. He has over 400 home runs. He was great at first base. He won a title. And do you think there is a single Mark Teixeira fan out there?

Teixeira finished with 409 HRs and 5 Gold Gloves, but is rarely discussed as a top-tier legend of his era.

Alex Rodriguez never truly earned his pinstripes.

Did A-Rod ever earn his pinstripes? I would say no.

This is a subjective debate about team legacy and culture.

A-Rod will enter the Hall of Fame as a Seattle Mariner.

I don't think he's a true Yankee. I think he goes in the Hall of Fame as a Mariner.

A-Rod is not yet in the HOF, and while he played 12 seasons in NY vs 7 in Seattle, PFT's prediction is mostly to needle Yankee fans.

The Celtics are resetting this season to target Nikola Jokic in 2027

I think the Celtics are basically saying this year we're resetting and then next year maybe Jokic could definitely be in the be in the realm of possibility.

This is a long-term prediction for the 2027 offseason.

The Kawhi Leonard era with the Clippers was an absolute failure

The Clippers Kawhi era is maybe the most unforgettable or or forgettable, I'm sorry, era of all time. Like they did nothing. Just an absolute tease.

This is a subjective evaluation of a player's tenure with a team.

France is playing the World Cup on 'easy mode' and looks unstoppable

France is just playing on easy mode. Like they're not even trying and they're just dummying people... France could have played with nine guys and they probably would've won that game.

This is a subjective observation of a team's dominance.
