The NBA Bubble won't feel weird until the conference finals

I actually think it's not going to be that weird to start. But once we get into, like, the conference finals, it's going to be fucking bizarre to have, like, games go on with no fans and just, like, big, big moments happen to, you know, 20 people in the room.

The Bubble atmosphere was widely regarded as bizarre throughout, but the lack of crowd noise in the NBA Finals (Lakers vs Heat) was particularly noted by fans and media.

LeBron James will put 'James Sr.' or 'Father of Three' on the back of his NBA jersey

This would be – it would be so LeBron if he came out with a James Sr. on the back of his jersey... Or just father of three. Very tasteful... Father of – and then Roman numerals probably.

LeBron James chose not to wear a social justice message on his jersey at all, keeping his name 'James' on the back.

NFL games will be played on Saturdays if college football is canceled

If there's no college football on Saturdays... they're probably going to play a lot of NFL games on Saturdays.

While some college conferences postponed, the season ultimately happened, and the NFL did not significantly move regular-season games to Saturdays beyond their usual late-season window.

Apple purposefully throttles iPhone battery life when a new model is about to be released

My iPhone on Saturday started, like, rapidly losing battery, getting way overheated... and then I Googled it... iPhone 12 coming out soon. Oh, it's fucking every single time. I don't understand how they're able to get away with this.

Apple admitted to slowing down older iPhones with aging batteries to prevent shutdowns and settled multiple lawsuits related to this practice.

The Vikings officially have a Kyler Murray problem

I think we can officially say they have a Kyler Murray problem. Justin Jefferson has reached his point where he's like, 'What the fuck is going on?' So that would be my point. Maybe there's a Kyler Murray issue.

Whether Minnesota had a significant Kyler Murray problem is an evaluative football judgment rather than a definitively resolvable fact.

The Vikings should trade for Kirk Cousins

What if I told you the Vikings could trade for a quarterback that has 18 touchdown passes and a rushing touchdown? Would that be something you think you'd be interested in if you were a Minnesota Viking fan? Kirk Cousins.

Whether Kirk Cousins was traded to Minnesota during the 2026 season is not established by the transcript or reliably known here.

Jalen Warren is a top-five running back

Jalen Warren is the top five running back this year. And it's like watching him play, that changes what I think about the Steelers.

Top-five running back status is ultimately a subjective ranking that cannot be definitively resolved.
