Andrew Luck is the NFL's version of Derrick Rose

Andrew Luck, by the way, is now... He's, like, almost, he's not Derrick Rose, but, like, there's that semblance of, like, he could just have a random surgery at any moment without an injury happening

Luck would ultimately retire early in 2019 due to the cycle of injuries, making this comparison quite prescient.

Week 3 is the week we officially find out which NFL teams are frauds

There's a lot of frauds. And week three is who we find out. That's when we know who the frauds are.

This is a subjective framing of the NFL season schedule commonly used by analysts.

College football is more exciting than the NFL, but it isn't 'better than' the NFL

Saying something is better than is not exactly correct in this case because, yes, college football is more exciting, but it's not better than. I mean, the guys aren't playing defense half the time. People are wide open. The windows are wide open.

This is a matter of personal preference regarding the technical quality of play versus high-variance excitement.

Roman Anthony is a defensive liability for the Red Sox because everyone is successfully running on him in left field.

Roman Anthony, world baseball classic hero. But he has been, he's become a meme basically. If he can't, he just can't throw anyone out from left field. Everyone's just running on Roman. Shane tried to tell me he was great last year, but he was playing right field. Now he's playing left field... it's just not good.

Whether a player is a 'liability' is subjective, though defensive stats can provide some evidence over time.

[AJ Brown is] gone no matter what... New England. [In my] unbiased mind, he's still gone.

AJ Brown was not traded to the Patriots in the immediate aftermath of these rumors.

UConn can't win the championship

I hope UConn can get it done. I don't think they can win it all.

UConn was in the 2026 Final Four. Resolution depends on whether UConn won the championship.
