Jameis Winston will be the Saints starting quarterback for the next 13 years if Sean Payton can 'figure him out'

Hasselbeck was like, yeah, you know, Jameis is young, 27. Like, if Sean Payton figures it out, this is your starter for the next 13 years.

Sean Payton retired after the 2021 season, and Jameis Winston never established himself as a long-term starter in New Orleans, eventually leaving in 2024.

Cowboys fans should be freaking out about Dak Prescott needing a second MRI

But QB Dak Prescott is planning on getting another MRI... if you're a Cowboys fan, you have to be freaking out right now.

While Dak did miss the preseason and some time later in the season (calf), he started 16 games in 2021. The 'freak out' over this specific shoulder MRI proved to be slightly overblown as he played Week 1.

Dak Prescott should have teammates tackle him in practice to stop overthinking his injury

If I'm Dak... even if my shoulder is still not good to go right now, I would still have people do, like, tackling drills against me in practice where I would get hit because you've got to get that first hit out of your system to stop thinking about it all the time. I would just have people, like, tackle me into a big mat so I didn't hurt my shoulder falling on it.

Dak Prescott did not do this. He returned to play in Week 1 against the Bucs and threw for 403 yards, showing the 'psychological' hurdle was handled through traditional rehab.

Preseason football performance is like 'Play-Doh' that fans can mold to fit whatever narrative they want to believe about their team

Preseason really is just, it's like a Play-Doh that you can just mold to however you want to feel about your team going into the regular season. You can twist what you're watching in a preseason game to fit however you want. If Justin Fields comes out and he's awesome, I'd be like, well, this is incredible. If he stinks, I'd be like, well, COVID, preseason.

This is an observation about fan behavior and the nature of preseason football, which is inherently subjective.

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.
