Super Bowl winning teams always have a talented tight end, so the position should be paid more.

If you look at the last year, 10 Super Bowls, I think every team that's won has had a very, very talented tight end. So, like, it has to do with winning Super Bowls. So, I mean, I think that's the most important thing, so you might as well pay the tight ends.

The recent winners (Chiefs, Bucs, Eagles, Patriots) all featured elite TEs like Kelce, Gronkowski, and Ertz.

The Process is officially dead.

Today is Monday, June 21st, and the process is dead. We had a good run. This was going to be the postseason where we judged whether or not processes actually work. Turns out they don't.

The core 'Process' era essentially ended here; the team subsequently traded Ben Simmons and failed to reach the ECF in the following years.

Ben Simmons proves that you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

I always thought that saying the Wayne Gretzky-Michael Scott quote didn't really make that much sense. [Ben Simmons] actually proves that you do, in fact, miss 100% of the shots that you don't take.

Simmons famously attempted zero fourth-quarter field goals in the final four games of the series.

Ben Simmons will still have trade value because a team will believe they can fix him.

I think [Ben Simmons] still will have trade value because someone will think, I can fix that. I can make him better because he still has elite levels to his game. It's just the whole point of shooting a basketball into a hoop is the game, and he just doesn't want to do that.

Correct; Simmons was eventually traded to the Nets in a blockbuster deal for James Harden in February 2022.

90% of NFL players prefer grass fields; teams should install them everywhere

Put me on a soapbox man. I mean, if you can put grass in MetLife and in SoFi, I think you could do that year-round if you really gave a shit... I think if you polled every single player, I would say probably 90% would prefer grass field. Why not just spend a couple extra million dollars? Which you, we know they all have. Just grass all the fields. It doesn't seem that difficult.

Surveys by the NFLPA consistently show a vast majority of players prefer natural grass over artificial turf.

Victor Wembanyama would struggle at tight end because his height creates a huge target area for safeties to hit

If he was only running a fade? Yeah, maybe. I think part of me thinks he would get the hell jammed out of him at the line of scrimmage though. ... Not a lot of base. And also if he tried to run like a crossing route across the middle, I think his, he's getting taken out pretty quickly. ... Like if you're a receiver or a tight end and you're over six six, you're that, that like your ankle to like hip, that's a huge target for safeties to just run through.

Subjective sports crossover hypothetical.

LeBron James would be a hell of a left tackle

LeBron would be a hell of a left tackle. He'd be an, he'd be a really good left tackle. If he just did like the Trent Williams ninja stuff where he just swats and swipes people's faces out of the way. I think he could handle it.

This is a hypothetical sports debate that can never be proven.
