Soccer will never be a top-tier sport in America because MLS isn't the best league in the world

NHL, NFL, MLB and NBA. Those are the best leagues in the world for those sports. MLS is not that way, so I think it's a little bit harder. It's definitely growing, but I don't know.

This is an ongoing cultural debate, though soccer's popularity is rising, it remains behind the 'Big Four'.

Michigan is the best college basketball team in the country

I think Michigan should be number one. They're the best team in the country. What they've done has been insanely impressive... They are just killing people.

Michigan earned a #1 seed in the 2021 NCAA Tournament and reached the Elite Eight, but Baylor and Gonzaga were generally considered the superior teams by the end of the season.

Hunter Dickinson is the best player in college basketball

I think Hunter Dickinson is the best player in the entire country. I'm only saying that because he's an AWL.

Dickinson was a Second Team All-American that year, but Luka Garza was the consensus National Player of the Year.

JJ Watt should sign with Cleveland or Buffalo to achieve legendary status

Cleveland does, you know, we discussed it when he became a free agent. Like, that is the... franchise you can go to that will embrace him... If you're the final piece to bring a Super Bowl to [Cleveland or Buffalo], it's a totally different level than signing with the Titans or with the Packers.

Watt signed with the Arizona Cardinals on March 1, 2021, the same day this episode was released.

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.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.
