Taylor Swift fans did not invent 'gig tripping'; hippies have been doing it for decades

This is from the article. Gig Tripping Combines travel with music, with people willing to merge vacation plans with a music event... This is literally what hippies have been doing for decades. Decades and decades and decades.

The concept of 'following' a band (Deadheads, Phish phans) is well-documented long before the Eras Tour.

There should be a 'free fight' rule allowing players to defend themselves against court-storming fans

I think like if there should be a rule that if you're a player and a fan comes at you, you can just go hog wild on 'em. Free the free fight rule that I've had for a very long time. Let the players have a free fight.

This is a subjective rule proposal that has not been adopted by any governing body.

Kyle Filipowski was not seriously injured during the Wake Forest court storming

I just, I think he's probably fine. I think it might've been a phantom roll of an ankle. Like, oh shit, we lost and I just shoved the guy possibly—ow my ankle hurts now my arm.

Filipowski played in Duke's next game against Louisville only three days later, scoring 9 points, and didn't miss any subsequent time, supporting the claim that it wasn't a severe injury.

Rick Pitino is good for the sport of college basketball

You have to like Rick Pitino, he's good for college basketball. Show, I mean, win. Yes. I respect Rick when he's wearing the white suit. This guy doesn't understand that. We like Rick Pitino.

This is an inherently subjective opinion about the entertainment value of a coach.

There will not be a Major League Baseball season next year because of the CBA negotiations

Next up, we're just not gonna have baseball next year. ... In its next CBA, the league is proposing a max contract. The length of five years for free agent players switching teams, six years to retain their own players. No deferred contracts. ... It just feels like we're so far away. I don't know.

Pending the outcome of the MLB CBA negotiations for the upcoming season.

The WNBA should be doing more to protect Caitlin Clark as their cash cow

They are though. Like it is kind of crazy that they aren't like they should be protecting her. Their cash cow a little bit. ... I mean she does make them the most amount of money.

This is a subjective opinion on league strategy.

To have a great sports league, you need a couple of dominant dynasties rather than total parity every year

Adam Silver saying the goal over time has been, and I've said it to be more NFL like where you believe your team has a shot. ... he also likes the parity, which I, I can't like parity is fun to a point. But dynasties are what get people, you know, upset and passionate. Like dynasties are, you know, teams of the decade and all that stuff. So you can't have just a new winner every single year. You need a couple dynasties.
