The 'Wood' meme will be remembered as the dominant group chat prank of the 2020 quarantine

Wood memes. When they were just... That was all anyone could text for about a week and a half... Every fucking text you opened. Every link you clicked on.

For PML listeners and the Barstool audience, the Barry Wood meme was indeed ubiquitous during this period.

The NBA Bubble won't feel weird until the conference finals

I actually think it's not going to be that weird to start. But once we get into, like, the conference finals, it's going to be fucking bizarre to have, like, games go on with no fans and just, like, big, big moments happen to, you know, 20 people in the room.

The Bubble atmosphere was widely regarded as bizarre throughout, but the lack of crowd noise in the NBA Finals (Lakers vs Heat) was particularly noted by fans and media.

LeBron James will put 'James Sr.' or 'Father of Three' on the back of his NBA jersey

This would be – it would be so LeBron if he came out with a James Sr. on the back of his jersey... Or just father of three. Very tasteful... Father of – and then Roman numerals probably.

LeBron James chose not to wear a social justice message on his jersey at all, keeping his name 'James' on the back.

NFL games will be played on Saturdays if college football is canceled

If there's no college football on Saturdays... they're probably going to play a lot of NFL games on Saturdays.

While some college conferences postponed, the season ultimately happened, and the NFL did not significantly move regular-season games to Saturdays beyond their usual late-season window.

Victor Wembanyama is already better than LeBron James

I'm gonna enjoy him because he's, he's like, I I said on Wednesday's show, he is, he's already better than LeBron. So I, that's how I'm gonna enjoy him.

Comparing players across eras or at different career stages is inherently subjective.

People only hate on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's flopping because his play style is fundamentally boring

I actually think the problem with SGA more than anything is he's just boring. That's really what people are upset about. The flopping like sucks. But... more than anything he's just, he's boring because he is a lethal mid-range guy. He doesn't have flashy dunks. He's not doing... He's just methodically an exceptional basketball player.

Subjective analysis of fan sentiment regarding a player's style.

The Cavaliers-Knicks series is over after Game 1

Series over, you can't lose that game if you're the Cavs. When it went into overtime, we said the Cavs have to win this. This is must win. You can't give this up. All time choke.

The series has just begun as of the episode date.
