Never buy James Harden, always lease him on six-month rentals

Maybe that's the key to James Harden. You just need six month rentals where it's like, he's going to be in shape. He's going to be happy. He's going to try really hard. And you lease him. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Never, never buy James Harden always lease him.

Harden's tenure with the Sixers eventually soured, leading to a trade request to the Clippers, fitting Big Cat's 'lease' theory.

The NFL will move the Combine to LA just to make it shittier and more expensive

I'm going to miss Indy because... this is probably the last year that the combine is going to be in Indy because the NFL, anytime they have something nicer, like, well, how can I make this 50% shittier, but make more money doing it. So they're going to move it. People were speculating, maybe Dallas. I actually hope that they move it to LA because just to see the big Jay's just shit themselves.

The Combine stayed in Indy for 2023, 2024, and 2025, though the league continues to consider other cities.

I'm reporting that Aaron Rodgers is retiring (per my arch-nemesis Aaron Nagler)

My arch nemesis, Aaron Nagler... he actually told me breaking news that Aaron Rodgers is going to retire... he was actually crying when he told me it. I had to like console him. He cried on my shoulder.

Aaron Rodgers did not retire in 2022; he signed an extension and played for the Packers that season.

Steakhouses in Indianapolis are engaged in a spicy cocktail sauce arms race

I noticed the shrimp cocktail sauce was spicier than normal. I think they're trying to compete with St. Elmo's. It's an arms race... St. Elmo's is going to eventually just burn your mouth off and be like, 'here's your bill'.

Subjective observation about food trends in a specific city.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.
