The Chicago Cubs' 2025 trade deadline was a disaster with no clear plan.

Cubs Trade deadline recap... They got no plan. They got a bunch of rental arms. A super utility man. Which I like that. That's cool... But it feels like Kyle Tucker will not be resigned. The Cubs had, they, they traded a prospect, a really good pro prospect in Cam Smith for Kyle Tucker... And then they did nothing at the trade deadline. And they're holding onto prospects and then they're probably not gonna sign Kyle Tucker... it's a disaster.

Opinion Baseball Medium Subjective

Whether the Cubs' 2025 trade deadline was a 'disaster with no clear plan' is a subjective evaluation of front office strategy.

The Dallas Cowboys should bench Dak Prescott and start over with Trey Lance at quarterback.

[The Cowboys] should start over with Trey Lance... Jim Harbaugh was [interviewed] and that got me pumped up... technically football is back.

Sarcastic take about a player who has struggled to find a starting role. Dak Prescott remains the established starter in 2024 and likely 2025.

The new 'Hawkeye' tracking technology in the NFL is just AI slop that doesn't solve anything.

The Hawkeye, they're putting tennis in our football. They mixed tennis in with football. And what they did was, on the first down, they showed the AI slop 3D cam that they hit a button and then they put a graphic on the screen and then the yellow line appears on the screen. The yellow line. That's, that's not new technology. The ball is still spotted by the refs. So it doesn't really have anything to do with anything.

I am 111% confident that the Commanders will get a contract extension done with Terry McLaurin.

[The 110% confidence] went up better today. [It's at] 111. The request of a trade actually got me more confident that it's gonna be done. It makes me want more. That's probably what he is doing.

Prediction Football Medium

The Commanders completed a contract extension with Terry McLaurin. He agreed to a 3-year extension worth up to $96 million with a $30 million signing bonus, ending his hold-in.
