The NBA play-in tournament gives bad teams a false sense of hope that they actually have a chance to win

I'm starting to sour on the play-in game. ... The NBA rigged it so that everyone has a chance so that everyone can stay invested. But it's like, do you really have a chance? ... Nobody really has a chance. ... They are right now two games out of the 10th seed and they're 23 and 27.

Since this is an opinion on league structure, it is subjective.

The late hit penalty on Joseph Ossai was 100% the correct call

The late hit call was good. That was the correct call. It was 100% the correct call. ... That's not a ref complaint because they got that right. And people who were upset about that call, they call that a hundred times out of a hundred times.

Officiating experts and the league office confirmed it was a clear late hit as Mahomes was well out of bounds.

The NFL is rigged and scripted to get Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl

The NFL is rigged, rigged. It's rigged for ratings or for money. ... This shit is fucking rigged. The NFL is rigged. I don't, it's scripted everything... They want Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl.

The NFL is not literally scripted by Hollywood writers.

Kirk Cousins has had a better NFL career than Tony Romo

I had a take last week that Kirk Cousins has had a better NFL career than Tony Romo did. ... I would rather have Kirk Cousins as the quarterback of my team for his whole career than Tony Romo. That's a fact.

Subjective comparison of two quarterbacks with similar profiles (high stats, limited playoff success). Romo has better peak accolades (All-Pro), Cousins has more longevity and volume.

The Chargers' game against the Raiders is a must-win

The Chargers might have the most must-win game of all time playing the Raiders with the schedule they have. If they don't win this week, it's over.

The Chargers' season outcome and whether the loss effectively ended their season had not been resolved at the time of the episode.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.

Oregon is probably out if it loses to USC

The USC game will be massive. If Oregon loses that game, they're probably out.

Oregon's playoff status after the USC game was still unresolved at the time of the episode.
