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 Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.

Jeffrey Simmons makes the Bears Super Bowl contenders

I thought they could win the Super Bowl before Jeffrey Simmons. Now I really do.

The 2026 NFL season and Super Bowl outcome have not yet been resolved from the episode date.
