The NFL preseason should be 10 weeks long and start in July

I think preseason should start in July. Give us something more to talk about. We should have 10 weeks of NFL preseason.

The NFL eventually shortened the preseason from 4 games to 3 in 2021, the exact opposite of this suggestion.

Pardon My Take has more female listeners than any other sports podcast

I honestly think that we have more female followers and listeners than any other sports podcast out there.

While podcast demographics are notoriously hard to verify exactly, it is highly unlikely PMT outpaced more mainstream or female-led sports podcasts in female listenership in 2016.

LeBron James is delaying signing with the Cavaliers because he doesn't have a printer

He's just keeps putting it off. He just doesn't. He's like, yeah, I'll sign tomorrow. Don't worry. Maybe he doesn't have a printer in his house. Maybe that's what it is.

LeBron eventually signed; the delay was almost certainly due to contract negotiations and league logistics, not the lack of a printer.

Mississippi State is going to struggle this year because Dak Prescott is gone

I'm going to say Mississippi State is going to struggle a little bit this year just simply because we don't have Dak Prescott on the field anymore for us.

Mississippi State finished the 2016 season 6-7, a step back from their 9-4 season in 2015 with Dak Prescott, though they did win the St. Petersburg Bowl.

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.
