The Houston Astros are going to kill the New York Yankees in the ALCS

The Astros are going to kill the Yankees. the Twins should stop I feel bad for the twin if that's what's gonna kill the Yankees. Justin Verlander and Gerrit Cole... he's insane. he's on a different level... the Astros are going to win the World Series.

The Astros defeated the Yankees 4-2 in the ALCS, but they did not win the World Series (lost to the Nationals).

Pass interference flags are the dumbest rule the NFL has ever implemented

Can we talk about the fact that PI flags are the dumbest rule the NFL has ever done. I think it was put out there as a trick on coaches to see which coaches have the least amount of respect for the officiating crews... It slows the game down. There's never ever going to be an overturned.

The rule was notoriously inconsistent and was actually scrapped after just one season due to how poorly it was received.

Penalties occurring after a negated interception should not count

The rule that if you have like a excessive celebration or a, you know, Block in the back or something on an interception that gets negated. It shouldn't count. if the interception is negated everything after that should be allocated.

This remains a matter of opinion as the current rules still allow for dead-ball or post-possession penalties regardless of play outcomes.

Frank Reich is on my list of coaches I love to bet on because he is always aggressive

Frank Reich is on my list of coaches I love to bet on because he's aggressive throughout the game... I honestly don't think there are more than a handful of franchises in the NFL that had their quarterback retired three weeks before the season would have been able to put together what the Colts were able to put [together].

Reich went 7-9 in 2019 but was widely praised for keeping the team competitive after Luck's sudden retirement.

The Brewers are the best team in baseball

They're the best team at baseball all year, and they proved it. They absolutely decimated the Dodgers.

The Brewers had reached the World Series and were described in the episode as having the best regular season; whether they were definitively the best team is partly subjective.

Bo Nix's problem is getting bigger

The Bo Nix problem seems to be getting bigger and bigger. What are we watching?

This is a judgment about Nix's trajectory and the Broncos' confidence in him, not a binary factual prediction.

A 24-team playoff is ruining college football

We're moving to a 24-team playoff. It just sucks. We don't need 24 teams. Twelve is probably a stretch already. What made college football special was the regular season mattered so much.

Whether playoff expansion improves or harms college football is an evaluative judgment.
