The NFL's TV audience would drop by half if all gambling and fantasy football were erased

If you took away gambling, if you made, if you had a button where all gambling, everything like illegal legal was just a race. No one could bet on anything. What do you think the NFL's TV audience would do? Half? Yeah, probably about half. It would be crazy.

Impossible to verify empirically, but a widely held belief in the sports media industry.

Russell Wilson's trade to the Broncos is a bigger story than Aaron Rodgers staying in Green Bay

I think Russell Wilson is the bigger story. Russell Wilson is definitely the bigger story because [Aaron] Rogers staying in at the Packers was kind of expected. Ish. Russell Wilson go to the Broncos is like, whoa.

Subjective comparison of story weight, but Wilson's trade was indeed a more significant roster shift than Rodgers' status quo.

The Broncos won the Russell Wilson trade because they finally got a franchise quarterback

I think that the Broncos won this trade because they've got a quarterback... I do like it for the Broncos though, honestly, if I, I do think that Russell Wilson is one of the quarterbacks that can take any team and turn them into like an instant contender.

The Broncos finished 5-12 in Wilson's first year and he was eventually cut after two disappointing seasons, while the Seahawks made the playoffs with Geno Smith.

The AFC West is the best division in football with the addition of Russell Wilson

I've seen more of people saying like, look how stack this division is. I agree. And Derek Carr is like, Def actually is probably the biggest God division and football right now.

While the Chiefs remained dominant, the other three teams struggled with consistency or internal dysfunction (Broncos/Raiders).

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.

Big Cat predicted that LeBron James would announce his free agency decision at 9:00 PM on July 20, 2026. However, reports from July 20 and July 21, 2026, indicated that James had not yet made his decision, and his agent stated on July 21 that he did not know when the announcement would occur.
