The Blackhawks should hold a press conference to protect Connor Bedard from rumors

The Black Hawks should do a better job of making sure they protect Connor Bedard at all costs. And you're, he's your franchise player. Maybe just do a press conference and explain what happened [with Corey Perry].

The rumors were eventually debunked, but the team's initial vague handling did lead to significant social media speculation.

The Bears are no longer a million pieces away from being a good football team

For the first time in a very long time, I'm optimistic about the Chicago Bears and where they're headed because I think you can build off of what they've done defensively... we're no longer just like a million pieces away. We're a few pieces away from being a good football team.

The Bears showed improvement in late 2023 and had a major 2024 offseason (Caleb Williams), validating the 'few pieces away' sentiment.

Montez Sweat is a better overall player than Chase Young

I agree that Sweat is an impact maker on defense. I told you he was better than Chase Young.

Montez Sweat earned a Pro Bowl selection in 2023 and significantly transformed the Bears' defense, while Chase Young had a more rotational role with the 49ers.

Josh Dobbs should not learn the playbook to be a better quarterback

He maybe should just not learn the playbook because... when he was in Arizona, he had been signed to the Cardinals like two weeks before the season started and played well... maybe it's just learning the playbook is too much.

While comedic, Dobbs was eventually benched by the Vikings after several poor performances once the 'newness' wore off.

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.
