Justin Bieber's 'too bad' DM to Ria on Valentine's Day was a 'flirty' response.

He just like it was in one of those Twitter moments... and her tweet was in there... so he said what do you say to her? Too bad. Too bad. That's a little flirty.

Subjective interpretation of a two-word DM. Bieber was married at the time, so 'flirty' is a bold interpretation of 'too bad'.

MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred's comments about the World Series trophy made the Astros scandal significantly worse.

Rob Manfred the commissioner made it even worse by getting in front of reporters and saying the idea of an asterisks or asking for a piece of metal [the World Series trophy] back seems like a futile act... he called the World Series trophy a piece of metal which is not... most dangerous trophy in all sports.

The 'piece of metal' comment became a major point of criticism for Manfred for years, proving PFT's point that he made the situation worse.

Jose Altuve should have claimed he had steroid-induced back acne instead of an 'unfinished tattoo' to explain his jersey-ripping controversy.

No, it wasn't a tattoo. I was just embarrassed because I had a ton of bacne from all the steroids I was taking. Reframe the conversation. Type of cheating... I was cheating by ingesting substances the cheating that's allowed.

This is a satirical suggestion and does not represent a factual claim made by Altuve.

MLB would have moved past the Astros scandal if they had just suspended players for 50 games.

If they had just suspended some of these players for 50 games or something, whatever it may be, it probably would have somewhat gone away. They didn't do anything correctly and it's just going to keep lingering.

This is a counter-factual theory about public relations and sports management that cannot be definitively proven.

The Jets in Week 16 are a layup win for the Patriots

We get the, the Jets, which is a nice, like layup week 16 leading into the Broncos and the Dolphins. So we got like kinda two easy wins and then a tough challenge week 17.

Outcome depends on the 2026 NFL season results.

I would love to give a detailed presentation on the pros and cons of every international NFL city

I would love to give a detailed presentation on pros and cons of each city. Something to think about. 11. I'm willing to show how much I care about these international games. And I feel like the only way to do real journalism is to go and feel it and take it in yourselves.

This is a statement of intent/desire regarding show content.

Rory McIlroy's foot blister will ruin his chances at the PGA Championship

I think it's gonna hurt his chances honestly. Have you ever played golf on a blister? We'll see how, I mean, I think it's gonna hurt his chances honestly.

Rory McIlroy was indeed dealing with a foot blister leading up to and during the PGA Championship, even cutting a practice round short. While he had a poor first round (74), he recovered significantly in the second and third rounds (67 and 66 respectively) and was in contention for the final round. Since the PGA Championship is still ongoing as of the review date, the ultimate impact of the blister on his chances of winning cannot be definitively determined yet.
