The New York Mets might be a team of destiny

The New York Mets might be a team of destiny. They have the omg that they're running around the rallying cry they have... the Mets might be a team of destiny.

The Mets made a deep postseason run to the NLCS, defying expectations after a poor start to the season, confirming the 'destiny' narrative for most of October.

I have zero confidence in the Phillies beating the Mets in the NLDS

I wanted nothing more than to play any team but the Mets going into yesterday and like the way everything has gone in the past two days, it's like I have zero confidence in that series.

Max's lack of confidence was justified as the Mets defeated the Phillies in the NLDS 3-1.

Tarik Skubal will win the Cy Young

Tarik Skubal, who's a Cy Young, shout out... he's gonna win it. I bet it instantly... he's gonna win the Cy Young. He was an absolute beast.

Tarik Skubal won the 2024 American League Cy Young Award unanimously.

Small ball wins in the baseball postseason

Small ball. Mike Socialism. Yeah, bring it back. It's great. Pete Rose would be disgusted by the Baltimore Orioles. Yeah. Swing down at the ball line drives ground balls. Those can be hits. Pop flies can't.

Whether small ball specifically wins more than power in the modern era is subjective and statistically debated, but it's a staple of PFT's sports philosophy.

Spain is entering a period of absolute soccer dominance and will win the next Euro.

They won the Euro two years ago. They won the World Cup. They're probably gonna win the Euro in two years. They're just different generation dominating soccer.

Euro 2028 has not happened yet.

Goals scored in the World Cup third-place game should not count toward the Golden Boot.

I also had one bone to pick. The third place game, which is hilarious that they still do this... The fact that those goals count for the Golden Boot is such bullshit. That's stupid. That should not count. Like that's not a real game.

This is a subjective opinion about tournament rules.

LeBron James will announce his free agency decision tonight.

I'm fully expecting him to announce at 9:00 PM tonight. Yep. Like shit like that where it's like, I went to a movie on Thursday night. I was like, oh, LeBron's gonna fucking announce during the movie. He's, he's now fucking us... I think that's what's gonna happen. I think he's gonna decide tonight.

Depends on exactly when LeBron actually announced his decision following this episode.
