Weather should never be factored into betting over/unders

The weather's not going to—like, that's not going to be. I obviously have a lot of numbers and a lot of data points checking over in the rain. One of those data points is not weather. Not on over unders ever. No.

The impact of weather on NFL scoring is a statistically proven factor in betting markets.

If you look at the rest of the schedule for the Bengals, I have some breaking news for you. Yeah. The Bengals are going to have at least 10 wins this year. Yeah, no. I mean, they could have 11 wins very easily.

The Bengals finished the 2021 regular season with exactly 10 wins (10-7).

The Bengals have a top 10 defense in the NFL

They are a very, very good team and their defense is really fucking good. Like they are—now I would, I don't know, advanced stats and all that stuff, but just the eyeball test, I'm going to say they're a top 10 defense.

The Bengals finished the 2021 season 18th in total yards allowed and 17th in points allowed, which is not top 10.

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.
