The Clippers are going to be a problem in the NBA this season

John Wall moving to the Clippers. Club's going to be a problem. So Clippers are an issue right now. Playoff P is back this season... Kawhi is him. They have three hims. He plays every other year... he comes back and plays one insane year and they're like Kawhi, best player in the league.

The 2022-23 Clippers were a 5th seed and lost in the first round of the playoffs, largely due to injuries again. They were not the dominant 'problem' predicted.

Kyrie Irving's teammates probably don't enjoy the drama despite what they say publicly

I would guarantee his teammates don't love this. I don't know. But he gets so much... I feel like all of his teammates that have ever talked about him publicly have said how much they love him. They like go out of their way to come up them playing with him. Yeah. But he, the problem is he hasn't been playing that much.

While speculative, subsequent reports of internal friction and Kyrie's eventual trade suggest his teammates likely grew tired of the distractions.

Deshaun Watson will be suspended for at least a full year

We're first reporting on Pardon My Take that Deshaun Watson will be suspended for [at least a full] year. Yep. On Friday... my guess is it will be a suspension for a year, and then the appeal is going to come through... then Goodell is going to be like, okay, I'll like reduce it to 14 games or 12 games.

Watson was originally suspended for 6 games, but after an NFL appeal and settlement, it was increased to 11 games (effectively most of the season). Big Cat was close with the 12-game estimate.

Wait until the last week of August to do your fantasy football drafts

Just a reminder. Don't do your fantasy drafts until the last week of August. Yeah. Even maybe the Tuesday before the Thursday kickoff. That's usually what I do that Monday or that Tuesday. The freaks out there that draft their fantasy team in July and then they're shocked when half the roster is gone before the season starts stop doing that.

This is logically sound advice to avoid drafting players who might get injured in training camp or preseason.

Spain is entering a period of absolute soccer dominance and will win the next Euro.

They won the Euro two years ago. They won the World Cup. They're probably gonna win the Euro in two years. They're just different generation dominating soccer.

Euro 2028 has not happened yet.

Goals scored in the World Cup third-place game should not count toward the Golden Boot.

I also had one bone to pick. The third place game, which is hilarious that they still do this... The fact that those goals count for the Golden Boot is such bullshit. That's stupid. That should not count. Like that's not a real game.

This is a subjective opinion about tournament rules.

LeBron James will announce his free agency decision tonight.

I'm fully expecting him to announce at 9:00 PM tonight. Yep. Like shit like that where it's like, I went to a movie on Thursday night. I was like, oh, LeBron's gonna fucking announce during the movie. He's, he's now fucking us... I think that's what's gonna happen. I think he's gonna decide tonight.

Big Cat predicted that LeBron James would announce his free agency decision at 9:00 PM on July 20, 2026. However, reports from July 20 and July 21, 2026, indicated that James had not yet made his decision, and his agent stated on July 21 that he did not know when the announcement would occur.
