The Raptors, Bengals, Capitals, and Mets have a 'stink' that makes them destined to lose

I actually do think there is something to be said for a franchise just having that stink where you're like, no matter what, no matter how good we are, we're probably going to lose. The Cubs had that. The Mets have it now. The Raptors... they're a joke until they win a title. The Bengals have the best team in the league, and you should be like, come on, it's the Bengals.

Since this take, the Capitals (2018), Raptors (2019), and even the Bengals (2021 Super Bowl appearance) have shed much of this reputation. The Mets still arguably have the stink.

D.C. is a loser town

Say what you want about Dan Snyder. They always compare the D.C. teams because D.C. is a loser town. I agree with that 100%. You can't really make an argument against that.

While subjective, the 'loser town' label was shortly debunked by championships from the Capitals (2018), Mystics (2019), and Nationals (2019).

I might just go tonight and get a Washington Capitals 2018 Stanley Cup champions tattoo.

The Capitals did indeed win the 2018 Stanley Cup. PFT later famously got this tattoo.

Ben Johnson ran the illegal play wrong on purpose

I think Ben Johnson ran it wrong on purpose to put something on tape that then he can run a variation off of it.

This is an interpretation of coaching intent that cannot be definitively verified from the game broadcast.

The Bears are good

I think the Bears are good.

Whether the 2026 Bears are 'good' is ultimately a season-level subjective assessment.

The NFL is testing its way toward Tuesday and Wednesday games

Florio basically was like the NFL is testing out putting teams three times in a row on primetime because we're going to get to a point where they start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games. And I believe it.

This can be evaluated if the NFL introduces regular Tuesday or Wednesday games as described.
