MLB's black and white jerseys are heinous but a genius marketing move

Way to stay relevant baseball. It's Players Weekend, and they have the new jerseys... This year... Straight black and white. I actually think this is a genius move by baseball. They're heinous, the jerseys. But genius move to get everyone to talk about them.

Subjective marketing analysis.

Derek Carr is incredibly awkward on Hard Knocks and acts like a robot impersonating a quarterback

Hard Knocks is back. Derek Carr is awkward as fuck... He was like a robot trying to impersonate a quarterback... It's very clear that the message the Raiders are trying to send is Derek Carr is our quarterback.

Subjective opinion on a player's media performance.

Jon Gruden will prevent anything interesting from being shown on Hard Knocks

It's very obvious that Jon Gruden is not going to let them show anything that's remotely interesting. We just have to hope for next week with Sean McVay trying to out-Gruden Jon Gruden.

The season was generally viewed as less explosive than expected despite having AB and Gruden, though some moments like the feet injury were notable.

The 'I'm a dad now' excuse for behavior expires once your child turns one year old

When do you get to stop using 'I'm a dad'? [LeBron] still does. 'I'm a dad now.' I think you can't use it after your kid's like one. 'I'm a dad now' is different than 'I'm a dad.'

This is a subjective rule for social etiquette.

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.
