The Rams were definitively the best team in the NFL this season

I'm walking away from this season not being like, oh man, it feels like the best team didn't win. All the Rams were the best team. They kicked the shit out of the Cardinals, they slayed the dragon in Tampa Bay and made Tom Brady retire, they then beat the boogeyman and Kyle Shanahan and the 49ers, and then they beat the Bengals. The Rams are a very good team.

They won the Super Bowl after a dominant playoff run, making them the de facto best team of the season.

Cooper Kupp just had one of the greatest wide receiver seasons of all time

I would say off the top of my head, [Cooper Kupp] is up there now with greatest wide receiver seasons of all time. In terms of his regular season and then what he did in the playoffs and what he did on that fourth quarter when it was pretty much they can't run the ball... the whole world knew it was going to Cooper Kupp and you still couldn't stop Cooper Kupp.

Kupp won the Triple Crown, Offensive Player of the Year, and Super Bowl MVP in the same season, statistically confirming it as one of the best WR seasons ever.

Eli Apple is the most disliked player in the NFL

Do you think that there's a more disliked player in the NFL than Eli Apple? Cause they picked on him and it was like every single player that was watching the game, current players, were just roasting the fuck out of him. Like he was getting just dragged by guys that are like the third wide out on some of the worst teams.

While 'most disliked' is subjective, the social media vitriol from peers (Mecole Hardman, etc.) at the time was unprecedented for a non-star.

The NFL has a 'super team' problem because the last two winners were built this way

I want to get ahead of the take because someone's about to drop this one. Does the NFL have a super team problem? Cause the last two super bowls were ruined by super teams.

The 'super team' trend in the NFL (Rams, Bucs) didn't actually persist as strongly in the following years with the Chiefs and Eagles winning/appearing.

Pigeons are the smartest birds because they live off human trash

Pigeons might be the smartest bird. There is one... they've essentially just over the years been like, Hey, you know where we should live? Right where the people leave their trash. We don't have to hunt for anything. We don't have to go fucking diving for worms and fish... Some guy's going to eat a calzone and not finish it and we're gonna finish it. So pigeons might be the smartest bird.

While funny, avian intelligence is usually measured by tool use (crows) or problem-solving, though urban adaptation is a form of intelligence.

Barry Bonds could still play in the MLB and take a million walks because of fear

I think of that with Barry Bonds for sure. Barry Bonds I like He could just, he, he could show up and just be awesome and, and take like a million walks. 'cause people would fear him.

This is a hypothetical claim about a retired player's current ability, which is fundamentally subjective.

American air conditioning is the equivalent of 'Hunter Biden crack' for European visitors

I would imagine air conditioning for Europeans hits like crack. Like the best crack of all. Oh, hunter Biden crack. Yeah. That's like when we go over to, to Spain and we see a nude beach. Like that's, that, that feeling that we get over there is their feeling when they're walking into one of our buildings over here.

Inherently subjective and hyperbolic comparison.
