You cannot have a championship drought if you have never won a title

The Astros, the Indians are the longest drought for Major League Baseball. Yes. For a championship. The Rangers are second longest. The Astros are third. The Rangers and the Astros have never won a World Series. Can you have a drought if you've never won a World Series? Because I say no.

This is a subjective definition of the term 'drought' in a sports context.

The Dodgers are a better team than the Cubs

I am ready now to admit that the Dodgers are the better team. Was it a gentleman's sweep? Yeah, it was. I love the gentleman's sweep.

The Dodgers defeated the Cubs 4-1 in the 2017 NLCS.

The Yankees are the No. 1 team in the 'Team of Destiny' power rankings

My guess is the Yankees. The Yankees, currently right now, if we're doing our team of destiny power rankings, they're clearly No. 1. The pinstripes are popping extra hot right now.

The Yankees lost the 2017 ALCS to the Astros, so they were ultimately not the team of destiny.

Kris Bryant was likely playing through an injury during the playoffs

Look for Kris Bryant to come out with maybe like a little surgery soon. A little hockey surgery. Clean up. He's been injured. That's what I'm saying... I'm going to say lower body. Yeah. He'll just get his ankle cleaned.

While Bryant had various injuries in his career, there was no major 'clean up' surgery announced immediately following the 2017 season specifically for an ankle.

Spain is entering a period of absolute soccer dominance and will win the next Euro.

They won the Euro two years ago. They won the World Cup. They're probably gonna win the Euro in two years. They're just different generation dominating soccer.

Euro 2028 has not happened yet.

Goals scored in the World Cup third-place game should not count toward the Golden Boot.

I also had one bone to pick. The third place game, which is hilarious that they still do this... The fact that those goals count for the Golden Boot is such bullshit. That's stupid. That should not count. Like that's not a real game.

This is a subjective opinion about tournament rules.

LeBron James will announce his free agency decision tonight.

I'm fully expecting him to announce at 9:00 PM tonight. Yep. Like shit like that where it's like, I went to a movie on Thursday night. I was like, oh, LeBron's gonna fucking announce during the movie. He's, he's now fucking us... I think that's what's gonna happen. I think he's gonna decide tonight.

Big Cat predicted that LeBron James would announce his free agency decision at 9:00 PM on July 20, 2026. However, reports from July 20 and July 21, 2026, indicated that James had not yet made his decision, and his agent stated on July 21 that he did not know when the announcement would occur.
