Stafford was traded to the Rams, not the Bears.

Matt LaFleur's decision to kick a field goal on 4th and goal was the most cowardly move ever

The most cowardice field goal of all time. Matt LaFleur, I do not understand what you're doing. The decision to kick a field goal with [2:10] left, three timeouts, down eight on the seven yard line, fourth and goal... so that you can seemingly go from needing a touchdown to needing a touchdown... was so beyond [stupid].

The Packers never got the ball back with a chance to win, effectively ending their season on a decision that minimized their win probability.

Kicking the field goal was the best path for the Packers to win the game

A touchdown on fourth down plus two-point conversion plus defensive stop for overtime was less likely to win than three points on fourth down and an onside kick or a defensive stop, two-minute warning, three timeouts, plus touchdown for a win. So kicking the field goal is the best path to win.

The decision was universally panned by analytics experts and fans alike; the Packers never got the ball back with a chance to win.

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 will be traded to the New England Patriots

[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.
