I am finally willing to admit that weather and wind exist in football

I've learned a lot over the years. I know some things, I don't know some other things. Before yesterday, I was steadfast in my belief that weather doesn't matter, wind is not a factor unless it's a tornado... but Bill Belichick, the wisest, smartest man in the history probably of this planet... taught me a lesson. I'm willing to admit... that weather does matter.

If you're going to have bad weather, it's better to have extreme weather than halfway bad weather

If you're going to have bad weather, I think it's better to have really, really bad weather than halfway bad weather. Yeah, it's—you're right, like the problem with the wind is the wind got tired out. We needed more wind to keep it crazier.

The Bills' season is at risk of falling apart with upcoming games against the Patriots and Tom Brady

It’s bad for the Bills right now because they thought this was going to be the year they're going to win the AFC East... now in a three-week stretch or four-week stretch, the Bills' season can sort of kind of fall apart here by having to face the Patriots and Tom Brady. Oh, you have to go up against the quarterback that as a team, [Tom Brady] is 32 and 3 against [them].

The Bills actually recovered, winning four straight to end the season and defeating the Patriots in the Wild Card round.

Bill Belichick will regret not winning the Patriots-Bills game with zero pass attempts

I actually think that Bill Belichick did not want to attempt a single pass last night. He was forced into it at the end and it would have been amazing. I actually that's, that's a regret that Bill Belichick is going to have. He's not going to have many of them at the end of his career, but he's going to regret not winning this game with zero passes, zero passes.

Purely speculative about Belichick's internal motivations.

Tom Brady helping Mike Macdonald prepare for the Patriots would be a huge slap in the face to the New England region.

That would be egregious if that was true. I don't believe it is true. But if it were, that would be unforgivable. Not unforgivable. That would be a, a blemish, a big blemish. Big time. It'd be a slap in the face of the whole region.

Subjective opinion on how a hypothetical rumor would be perceived.

Jayson Tatum is playing cute by claiming he found out about the Jaylen Brown trade on social media.

I'm sure he knew that he was on the trading block and he didn't know specifically when he got traded and he found out just like everyone else... all Brad Stevens, Jaylen Brown, they talked about how, you know, he was gonna be on the trading block and they were gonna try and move him. So I'm sure Jayson Tatum was also aware of that. But in terms of, he's probably playing a little, a little cutesy there where like no one specifically told him, 'Hey, this is the trade.' He found out like everyone else. But I'm sure he was not surprised and fully aware what the plan was.

Subjective interpretation of Tatum's PR framing.

The Celtics have another major move coming following the Jaylen Brown trade

There's something going on here. I I said it to Max on the boat yesterday. I was like, Jalen Brown was getting traded. I could, I could just feel it. I could feel it coming... I feel like the Paul George thing is, there's the, like, they might be doing another trade. There's another move coming.

The trade just happened in the fictional 2026 timeline provided; further moves are pending.
