The Houston Astros will break the all-time record for hit-by-pitches during the 2020 season

Imagine if they [Astros] break the record for hit by a batter in a 60 game series like break the hundred and sixty two games. I think we can do it. I believe strongly enough in the unwritten rules of baseball.

The Astros were hit by 38 pitches in 60 games in 2020 (leading MLB), but this was not close to the all-time record pace of 162 games (105).

Joey Chestnut is the greatest athlete of all time

Joey Chestnut is the greatest athlete of all time. That's it. It's over. If you look at the career that he's put together and how he keeps beating himself. He doesn't have a guy that he's going up head-to-head against he's only competing against his past self and he continues to dominate himself from a year ago.

Whether eating is a sport is subjective, but in the context of competitive eating, Chestnut is widely considered the GOAT.

Joey Chestnut is better than Tiger Woods because he competes against everyone who has ever eaten a hot dog

He is better than Tiger Woods better. I would say better because Tiger Woods only competes against what 200 other people in a golf major right? Joey Chestnut is literally competing against anybody that's ever eating a hot dog.

The logic is intentionally flawed for comedic effect; Tiger Woods' competition is far more elite.

The 60-game 2020 season is Mike Trout's best chance to finally make the playoffs

Mike Trout feels like he might opt out... doesn't this feel like the one chance Mike Trout has to go to the playoffs a 16-game season [meant 60]... he may never go to the playoffs. In this case, he might finally reach that point.

The Angels went 26-34 in 2020 and missed the playoffs yet again.

Malik Nabers is a true No. 1 receiver

Malik Nabers is a bonafide, bonafide number one in the league, I think. I think Malik Nabers is a true number one.

Receiver ranking is inherently evaluative and cannot be definitively resolved.

The Giants are a fun, good team

Even when they're good, they're not fun. This is a fun team. The Giants are fun. Good. Yeah. And I do think that they are a good team.

This is an evaluative opinion rather than a definitively verifiable claim.

The Falcons can win the NFC South

Why can't they win the NFC South? Especially what we saw from the Panthers today.

The NFC South winner will determine whether this prediction comes true.
