The Seahawks have stolen the 'fun surprise team' narrative from the Giants

I'm dubbing this, the narrative stolen game. ... I think the Seahawks are now what the giants were in terms of the fun team that no one saw coming. ... They look for real kind of like, they kind of look for real. And they are the fun team.

The Seahawks did continue their surprising run, making the playoffs at 9-8, while the Giants also made it at 9-7-1. Both remained 'fun surprise' stories for the rest of the 2022 season.

Kirk Cousins is the second most liked player in the NFL

I saw a study that came out that actually addresses this very question. ... And the number one most like player is Kirk Cousins. Oh, and number two, they're outta here. No, no, no, he's, sorry. He's number two. Number one. Russell Wilson.

Likability studies are subjective and vary by methodology, but various 'Q Scores' and fan polls around this time did surprisingly show Wilson and Cousins with high name recognition and neutral/positive ratings among casual fans despite internet memes.

No NFL quarterback has a closer connection to their city right now than Josh Allen has with Buffalo

I don't think there is a closer connection quarterback to city right now than Josh what Josh Allen has going on in Buffalo. ... I don't think there's anyone right now [above him].

Subjective measure of fan-player relationships, but Allen's status in Buffalo remains near-mythological.

Trevor Lawrence is officially back in the bust category

Trevor Lawrence is now back officially into the bust category. ... This is as rock bottom as you can be if you're a Jaguars fan because you have the guy that was supposed to be the next Peyton Manning, the surest thing. ... You can't miss and then you might miss. That's as rock bottom as it gets.

While Lawrence struggled in 2022, he eventually led the Jaguars to a playoff win that same season and earned a massive extension, making the 'bust' label incorrect in the long run.

Paddy the Baddy is the next star of the UFC

Paddy the Baddy was electric. Paddy the Baddy is the next star of the UFC.

Paddy Pimblett has become a massive fan favorite and major draw, though he hasn't reached McGregor-level championship status yet. The take is largely validated by his popularity.

I bet LeBron James will announce his next team on Thursday using a golf ball gender reveal format

I think it's going to be like a gender reveal, but with a golf ball. And he's gonna hit the golf ball and it's gonna be the Cavs colors... Burgundy. Do it, do it Thursday. LeBron.

LeBron did not use a golf ball gender reveal to announce a team move in 2026.

Andy Reid on a horse is a massive Mount Rushmore miss

Andy Reid should have been a pick. The more, just think about it, the more Andy Reid on a horse... that is so fucking funny.

Subjective humor.
