The Ben Simmons holdout is unique because for once, the team is good and the player is the problem

This is uncharted territory because whenever you have a holdout or a guy demanding a trade it's because he's really, really good. And his team sucks and he's like the franchise won't support me. It's the exact opposite. The team is good. And Ben Simmons sucks. So it's like you have all the support. You are just the problem.

This is a subjective assessment of the Simmons/76ers dynamic.

Trevor Lawrence has officially arrived in the NFL

Trevor Lawrence has officially arrived in the NFL. He played very well. This was officially his first game.

Lawrence played his best game to date at that point, though the Jaguars still lost and his rookie season remained difficult.

Urban Meyer looks miserable and doesn't like coaching in the NFL

Urban Meyer, what are you doing? Urban Meyer doesn't like coaching football. It was pretty apparent like in the first half... He just looks like he's miserable out there all the time. I don't know why he does it to himself.

Urban Meyer's tenure was a disaster and he was fired on December 16, 2021, following poor results and off-field scandals.

The Bengals are officially on 'frisky watch'

The Bengals, I think are officially on frisky watch. Who is more frisky? The Bengals or the Panthers. I think the Panthers... The Bengals just joined the Panthers in the frisky watch.

The Bengals were much more than frisky; they won the AFC North and represented the AFC in the Super Bowl.

The goal allowed by the US goalie was the most embarrassing possible

What about the goalie? Yeah, I mean he... that was the most embarrassing goal that I've ever seen. Possible.

While subjective, the blunder by the US goalkeeper (Freeze/Turner) was widely mocked as a 'MAC football' level mistake.

The USMNT is the 'James Franklin Penn State' of soccer

People were making very mean jokes online that we were James Franklin, Penn State. And it is actually perfectly appropriate because if you look at who we played, we beat the teams we're supposed to beat... and then we absolutely got ass fucked by the team that was better than us in Belgium. We are not who we thought we were.

Subjective comparison.

We just suck at soccer as a country and that's okay

My take is we suck at soccer and that's okay. Like, I don't care that we suck at soccer anymore. I'm going to root for the US team. I'm gonna get excited when we're in a World Cup. I'm gonna get hyped up and it's gonna be fun to watch. And then I'm gonna be reminded that we suck at soccer and that it's just gonna be like, okay, yeah, that's okay.

Subjective perspective on American soccer.
