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.

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.
