Mark Wahlberg leaving the Super Bowl early was a bad move

Marky Mark, Miami Heat fan slash New England Patriot fan. Left in, what, like 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter? Yeah, he left really early... how about you respect your favorite player, I assume, Tom Brady, and his ability to come back in a game. That's a bad look... that was a fucked up move for you to leave.

Wahlberg was widely mocked for leaving early. He later claimed he left because his son was feeling sick.

Super Bowl 51 is the best Super Bowl of all time

Number one, right off the bat, is this the best Super Bowl of all time? ... [Big Cat] well, people forget there's never been an overtime. [PFT Commenter] That's a good point.

Widely regarded as one of, if not the greatest Super Bowl due to the unprecedented comeback and first-ever overtime.

The Falcons lost Super Bowl 51 more than the Patriots won it

Maybe the biggest thing that we're going to talk about is, did the Patriots win this game or did the Falcons lose it? Ooh, I think they lost it. I think the Falcons lost it.

Subjective sports debate, though the Falcons blowing a 28-3 lead is widely considered the greatest choke in Super Bowl history.

James White should have been the Super Bowl 51 MVP over Tom Brady

James White had a great game. Getting in on the fun. He should have been MVP. He had three touchdowns. He was all over the field. They had no answer for him. Tom Brady did the old Brett Favre. It was a participation trophy for Tom Brady. It was a lifetime achievement award.

Tom Brady was officially named MVP. While White had a historic game, Brady threw for a then-record 466 yards in the greatest comeback ever, making his win justifiable even if White was a strong candidate.

The intentional-grounding penalty was the right play

I actually think he had, that's an OC problem because there was no underneath route. If he throws that deep and, like, everyone had—it just was a shit show. He couldn't throw it deep because he was basically getting chased. If he takes a sack, everyone has to come back. It probably is more than 10 seconds to get the next play. So that one, I had no problem.

Whether the decision was optimal is an inherently debatable football judgment.

The Colts needed a complete reset after Chris Ballard's firing

Chris Ballard was there for 10 years, never won an AFC South. You finally just—it's inexcusable. The Andrew Luck retirement is probably what bought Chris Ballard a lot more years. He basically could just keep on saying, 'Well, our plans were screwed up because Andrew Luck retired.'

This is an evaluative judgment about a general manager's tenure and cannot be objectively resolved.

The NBA should start on Christmas Day and play 60 games

The NBA should start on Christmas day. It should be a 60-game schedule. It'd be so much better.

This is a preference about league scheduling and cannot be objectively resolved.
