Notre Dame's green jerseys are officially cursed and should be retired

I feel like Notre Dame wearing the green jersey the last 20 years, they haven't won a big game. The green jerseys have flipped. They went from a Mighty Ducks story where you guys warm up in one jersey, go in the locker room, put on the green jerseys, everyone's pumped... to now whenever Notre Dame wears the green jersey, I'm sitting there like they've got no shot.

Notre Dame has a mixed record in green jerseys since 2000, including high-profile losses to USC (2005) and Michigan (2011), supporting the 'curse' narrative.

The Capitals made a massive mistake not re-signing Stanley Cup-winning coach Barry Trotz

The fact that the Capitals didn't re-sign their Stanley Cup winning coach after he won a Stanley Cup is still so fucking crazy to me. I know there's money and all that stuff, but how do you win a cup and not bring that guy back? ... He's a fun coach. He's a player's coach and once it gets to the playoffs, it's all about just making your team comfortable. Todd Reirden is not that guy.

Barry Trotz won back-to-back Jack Adams nominations with the Islanders while the Capitals were eliminated in the first round in consecutive years under Reirden, who was fired in 2020.

This is the easiest sports letdown of all time because fans can't attend games or have parades anyway

This is the easiest letdown of all time because you can play that game in your mind like, 'What's the point of even winning a cup if you can't go to games or go to the bars with your friends?' ... If your team loses, just enjoy the fact that this will be the easiest letdown of all time that we will ever have as fans.

This is a subjective take on the fan experience during the pandemic.

The Lakers are going to destroy the Blazers in five games

The Lakers are going to fuck the Blazers up. Put it up, put it right down, quote it. Five games. Maybe [four]. ... The Blazers play pickup basketball. They do not play defense. And they play against the Lakers. I think the Lakers just need to get three consecutive stops and the game's over.

The Lakers did beat the Blazers 4-1 in the first round of the 2020 NBA playoffs.

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.
