MLB should use completely random divisions if they play a shortened season

I'm actually all for this because it's going to be such a weird season anyway. If they play a shortened season that why not have just completely random divisions and have it beat something totally different where we always look back and I'm like, oh, yeah, that was the season that the Cubs were in the same division as the Giants.

MLB did eventually realign divisions geographically (East/Central/West) for the 2020 season, but they weren't 'completely random.'

The NBA HORSE competition is completely uninteresting

We did have HORSE last night which I'll tell you right now. I did not watch did not tune into that. Zach LaVine, that's really the only Zach LaVine who competes in every single like off-the-books contest there is... Chris Paul, Paul Pierce, really no interest in it whatsoever.

The HORSE competition was widely panned by fans and media for poor production quality and low stakes.

The NFL Draft is the only thing keeping sports fans going right now

The only thing that we have pulling us forward right now is the NFL draft. And thank God that that's there because that's at least giving us something to talk about. It feels normal that it's going to happen.

The draft did indeed proceed on schedule in April 2020 and was a major cultural moment for sports fans during the lockdown.

The NCAA will never give up a football season because they need the free money

I think that college is there's just no chance that they're going to give up entire football season. They're gonna figure out a way to make their free money like without that free money... if they miss a football season, they might have to just declare bankruptcy.

The NCAA and conferences did eventually push through a 2020 season despite many cancellations, primarily due to TV revenue.

UNC is one of the true blue blood jobs in college basketball

This is a job that doesn't come open very often. And it is a true blue blood job... It is the logo of a team that's won a ton of national titles and a ton of Final Fours. It is literally one of the blue bloods.

UNC's historical success, tournament wins, and titles objectively categorize them as a blue blood.

I've fallen hard and fast for Ben McCollum - he's a rock star coach

I've fallen hard and fast for Ben McCollum. He just wins everywhere. Ben McCollum always talking about toughness. I've fallen hard. I've read a lot of Ben McCollum this last week after beating Florida. This guy fucking rocks.

Subjective opinion on a coach's quality.

The Cubs are the second best team in the NL and will reach the NLCS

I think the Cubs are gonna be really fucking good. I think they're the second best team in the NL so I guess my expectations might be a little too high, but I think they're gonna be really, really good. I think they should definitely win the NL Central and be in the NLCS.

Predicting the Cubs to be the second-best team in the entire National League is a bold stance given the Dodgers and Braves.
