Trevor Bauer is a 'dumb smart person' whose antics are good for baseball

Trevor Bauer... he's a dumb, smart person. ... I think that he might be exactly what baseball needs. We always talk about baseball. We don't have a face of the game. Lean into marketing this dumbass. ... Baseball hasn't really had an asshole for a long time.

Subjective opinion on marketing and league entertainment value. Bauer certainly remained a polarizing figure until his suspension.

Brooks Koepka is the greatest golfer of all time this year

[Brooks Koepka] is the greatest golfer of all time this year. So I don't understand how it works, but I just know that this one triggered all the other finishes, and now he won it all.

Koepka was World No. 1 in 2019 and had an exceptional year, though 'greatest of all time' even for a year is subjective hyperbole.

A player will eventually use a hologram to make a training camp entrance

A hologram will arrive for the player, and then they'll show up later. That will be the greatest entrance. ... That will happen eventually in the next, like, 10 years.

While technology has advanced, no NFL player has yet used a hologram specifically for a training camp entrance as of 2024.

I would pay Ezekiel Elliott before Dak Prescott and Amari Cooper

I get it with Ezekiel Elliott. This is the take I'm willing to squat on. I would pay Ezekiel Elliott first. I would pay him before Dak. I'd pay him before Amari.

This is a team-building philosophy question. The Cowboys eventually signed all three, but Zeke's massive contract is often cited as a mistake in hindsight compared to Dak's value.

The Chargers' game against the Raiders is a must-win

The Chargers might have the most must-win game of all time playing the Raiders with the schedule they have. If they don't win this week, it's over.

The Chargers' season outcome and whether the loss effectively ended their season had not been resolved at the time of the episode.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.

Oregon is probably out if it loses to USC

The USC game will be massive. If Oregon loses that game, they're probably out.

Oregon's playoff status after the USC game was still unresolved at the time of the episode.
