Sports networks need to stop forcing the 'Rory McIlroy is lurking' narrative when he is multiple strokes off the lead on Sundays

Can they just stop trying to like, will Rory down our throats? ... It feels like every major we watch Rory is, you know, teeing off early on Sunday. He makes a couple good shots and they try to show us and be like, well look out for Rory. Yeah. What do you mean look out for Rory? He was 10 strokes off the lead.

This is an opinion on broadcast television priorities.

The formula for the Timberwolves to win is for Anthony Edwards to not score at all in the first half

When [Anthony Edwards] is held below five points in the first half of the game, the timber wolves are seven and one this season. ... So he just gotta not score, just have him not score at all in the first half and then you're good.

While the stat was true at the time, purposefully having your star player not score is obviously not a sustainable winning strategy.

The Timberwolves are for real after beating the Nuggets in Denver

I couldn't be more impressed with, with the wolves. This series was just, it was the anti Minnesota series... they win the game somewhat convincingly. 'cause they were up 10 with like three minutes left and it was over in, in the Nuggets building. They win three games in Denver. I mean, what a what a what a performance. They're they're for real.

The Timberwolves reached the Western Conference Finals, confirming they were 'for real' that season.

France is unstoppable in the 2026 World Cup

When we first got the bracket, I said I was gonna go chalk and just bet on France. They just seem like there's nothing that you can do to stop him. France looks unstoppable.

The 2026 World Cup final is likely still pending or just occurring around the episode date.

The toxicity towards Christian Pulisic proves America is finally a real soccer country

I think with the amount of vitriol that has gone towards Christian Pulisic, we have shown for the first time we might be a real soccer country because that actually, it's nuts how he's gotten bashed by everyone. The fact that it's gotten so toxic towards this one guy, it's like, oh shit. Maybe we could become a country that people cared that much about it.

This is a subjective cultural take on fandom.
