PJ Tucker's role on a championship team is specifically to be the 'dog'

PJ Tucker's role is to be a dog. So he was just like saying, you need dogs to win that's him. Yeah. So he was like, yeah. He was like defining his role. He had to teach everyone else how to be a dog.

I want to win an NBA championship as a podcast just for the opportunity to have a parade

I think we should try to win an NBA championship as a podcast. Because it looks awesome. I just think that there should be more parades in general. Parades really only exist nowadays if you win a championship or like for an inauguration... it looks like I really do think that we should try our best to win a championship in a professional sport because that looks awesome.

The podcast has not won an NBA championship.

Ordering soda without ice is a smart consumer move to get 25% more drink

No ice, I think that's just being a smart consumer. You get more soda that way. I think if you grow up with not a whole lot of money, you know the no ice trick, because you get an extra probably 25% of the drink with it and you don't need the ice.

Standard ice displacement in a soft drink is typically between 20-30%, so 25% is a very accurate estimate.

Texas is the most high-maintenance girl in college football

It is a very Texas thing to do. They always think that they're going to be the hottest chick in the room and they never are. It's like Texas is the most high maintenance girl that you've ever dated. They always need to be told how good they look all the time.

Subjective comparison of program prestige and behavior.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.
