Michael Jordan is not a loser and is the definition of the word 'winner'

I say absolutely not [to MJ being a loser]. I think it's safe to say that Michael Jordan is not a loser. He is the definition of the word winner. He's synonymous with winner more probably than any athlete maybe besides Tiger Woods.

Jameis Winston's LASIK surgery might turn him into 'Captain Checkdown'

What if [Jameis Winston] is able to see those cornerbacks and he becomes Captain check down and he's like, I can't believe I used to make those throw[s]... his eyes are going to be seeing ghosts and it's going to affect his personality like any wild way.

Winston did become slightly more careful with the ball in New Orleans before his ACL injury (14 TDs to 3 INTs in 2021), but he remained a high-risk, high-reward passer rather than a checkdown specialist.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.
