I'm not far-fetched as a Hall of Famer, but I'm not conceited enough to say I belong yet

To think of yourself belonging with such legends and icons, I'm not that conceited and not that confident in myself to say that I belong with those people. But if they invite me to join them, I would gladly take a seat and it would be a great honor.

Manning's measured take that he's 'not far-fetched' but wouldn't presume has been validated — HOF finalist twice but not yet inducted.

Augusta National pipes in bird noises for the Masters broadcast

I'm more convinced than ever that the birds are actually piped in crowd noise. Agreed. There's one bird in particular. They play its call over and over and over. It's a cardinal, I think. They're getting sloppy with it. I think it might be a whippoorwill. But whatever it is, it's very obvious.

While CBS was caught using recorded bird sounds in 1990 and 1991, Augusta National and modern broadcasters maintain the sounds are natural, though the theory persists among fans.

Bryson DeChambeau looks fat when he is playing poorly

When you're bigger and you're doing well, you're strong. And when you're doing poorly, you're fat. And he looks fat today. Not to body shame, but there's something about the plus four next to his name that the strength now becomes a little pudgy.

This is a purely subjective observation about visual perception based on athletic performance.

I like Patrick Reed more than Bryson DeChambeau because Reed is a genuine villain

I somehow like Patrick Reed more because he's more of a villain than Bryson is... He's the ultimate heel in golf. Bryson is like, he's an aspiring heel. [Reed] knows everyone hates him, and he kind of has just accepted it.

Subjective opinion on which golfer is more likable or a better villain.

Quarterbacks should slide and turn their backs to the defense

You gotta slide and then you gotta turn. So if someone does hit you, you don't just get taken to the shot to the face and get knocked out. The point of sliding is not to take a hit.

This is a football technique claim grounded in quarterback safety principles and is generally correct.

Baker Mayfield has a little Manning in him

I always kind of said it about Baker Mayfield, just because he wasn't scared to throw three interceptions. He was gonna let it rip.

The comparison is a subjective stylistic judgment.

Josh Allen is the best quarterback in the NFL right now

I think Josh is the best quarterback in the NFL right now. His skill set, being able to run and make the throws, and be a fourth-quarter guy and throughout the whole game take over a game.

The best quarterback is a subjective evaluation, even though Allen’s performance can be measured.
