The NBA's plan to push West Coast games to 11 PM Eastern is a bad move compared to MLB's regional focus

The NBA is actually doing the reverse. You see that they're doing a like, coast to coast where they're gonna push back the West Coast games to 11:00 PM Eastern time... I don't know and maybe the Mets and Yankees would be in the same division [in MLB], which that, that would, I feel like that would be a mistake.

Subjective business/media strategy opinion.

The NFL will officially announce starting quarterbacks for the Browns and Colts this week

I think we're gonna get starting quarterbacks announced maybe this week... I think we're gonna get announcements from the teams this week of who the starting guys are gonna be in Cleveland [and Indy].

The Browns announced Deshaun Watson (and Jameis Winston as backup) later that week, and the Colts confirmed Anthony Richardson.

Kevin Stefanski will start Joe Flacco to buy time while Dylan Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders compete for the future

I think what [Kevin Stefanski] is gonna do is start Flacco and then he'll continue to have Gabriel and Sanders kind of like going shot for shot. See, figuring out who the next guy Ups gonna be. Yep. And he's gonna buy himself a couple weeks by having Flacco start.

The Browns actually entered the season with Deshaun Watson as the starter; Flacco was not on the roster to start 2024, and Dylan Gabriel stayed in college for another year.

Matthew Stafford will miss a few games this season due to injury

I think [Matthew Stafford] can start and finish the season, but I think he'll probably miss a couple games inside the season.

Matthew Stafford did not miss significant games in 2025. He had an MVP-caliber season with 4,707 passing yards (1st in NFL), played all or nearly all games, and led the league in yards and TDs.

Michigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.

Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.

The episode presents Michigan winning the 2026 National Championship as a fact within the show's timeline.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot

They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.

Subjective comparison of team quality. Duke did beat Michigan during the regular season in 2025-26.

Danny Hurley is 18-1 against the spread in his last four NCAA tournaments, which is insane

Danny Hurley remains 18 and one in the last four tournaments against the spread. How insane is that? Furman is the only one that they didn't cover. That was the first round this year.

This is a factual claim about Hurley's ATS record over the last four NCAA tournaments. Based on UConn's remarkable tournament run, this is plausible and presented as a known stat. Cannot fully verify exact record but the claim is stated as fact.
