Larry the Goldfish is officially admitted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame archives

We can certainly put him in the archives... He's not going in the bronze bust room. He's not getting a gold jacket... he will be included in the archives of the Hall of Fame.

Baker literally confirms they will keep the records/trinkets in the archives, making this a true claim within the context of the show's lore.

Hard Knocks stinks

Hard Knocks stinks. There's nothing that can turn around a bad episode of Hard Knocks like watching it with a cool dog... The ending was, I had to like check myself because they had the dramatic rainstorm and Liev Schreiber was doing some unbelievable speech, and then I was like, wait, they lost in a preseason game to the Cardinals by three points. What are we doing here?

Subjective opinion on entertainment value.

Dak Prescott is probably going to miss the whole year with his shoulder injury

They can't show it [on Hard Knocks] because they don't want to tell us that [Dak Prescott's] shoulder's fucked up and he's probably going to miss the whole year.

Dak Prescott did not miss the whole year; he played 16 regular season games in 2021.

Jerry Jones is the only person I've seen put on weight after the age of 75

Jerry is the only guy I think I've ever seen that's put on weight after the age of 75. Most people just start to wither away. He's just ballooning up.

Subjective observation of Jerry Jones's physical appearance over time.

The 2021 Hall of Fame weekend will be one of the greatest gatherings in the history of football

It is going to be, I think one of the greatest gatherings from football ever. We'll have 161 Hall of Famers... we have the Centennial class, which again, that was originally going to be 20 Hall of Famers for 2020... that leaves us 19 [living inductees].

The 2021 ceremony was unique due to the induction of two classes (2020 and 2021) simultaneously because of the pandemic.

Peyton Manning's Hall of Fame debate only lasted 10 seconds

He knew it, it took 10 seconds for him to get in the hall of fame. You know, Mike Chapple from Indianapolis did his presentation. And I think all he said was Peyton Manning dropped the mic. Yeah. And, and, and he, he didn't have to make the presentation. Everybody knew he was going to.

Baker is the ultimate authority on these meetings. It is a well-documented story that the Manning presentation was incredibly brief.

Olivia Manning is effectively a Hall of Fame 'contributor' for her role in her family's success

I feel like Olivia Manning should be nominated for the hall of fame as a contributor... [Baker]: Olivia and... frankly, her mom was a world-class sprinter, you know? So I think he [Christian McCaffrey] got some speed from her... Olivia and I, and again, I got to tell you... I've always regarded him [Archie] as one of the great fathers.

This is a subjective tribute to mothers of athletes.
