The Jimmy Garoppolo trade is the beginning of the end for the Patriots dynasty

This started a chain of events that is going to end the Patriots dynasty... Belichick was basically cut out of this, right? So Belichick's pissed... and then he's going to resign. Okay. And then that's the end of it.

While the dynasty continued for two more Super Bowl appearances and one win (Super Bowl LIII), the Garoppolo trade is cited by many (including the book 'The Dynasty') as the moment the relationship between Belichick and Kraft/Brady fractured permanently.

Clayton Kershaw will close Game 7 of the World Series and finally get the monkey off his back

Clayton Kershaw, out of the bullpen to close Game 7 for the Los Angeles Dodgers... he does the old Steve Young, gets that monkey off his back. And the Dodgers, the great sports town of L.A., has a championship.

The Astros won Game 7. While Kershaw pitched 4 scoreless innings of relief, he did not close the game or win the championship.

Major League Baseball is better when the Dodgers are disappointed

The Major League Baseball is better when the Dodgers are good. That's what people always say. I don't really believe that. I like Los Angelinos to be very disappointed in all their sports because they have everything else.

This is a subjective preference about the state of the league.

Kelvin Benjamin will lose his conditioning in Buffalo because of the winter and chicken wings

Kelvin Benjamin, who, by the way, did the Bills realize he's already kind of a hefty guy with weight problems and that he's going to be in Buffalo? Yeah, and wings. And a lot of beer... I feel like Kelvin Benjamin is going to get off the plane in Buffalo and be like, oh, I don't have to be in shape in this city.

Kelvin Benjamin's tenure in Buffalo was a disaster; he struggled with conditioning and production and was released after about a year.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
