Masters TV coverage is a joke because fans can't watch it all live

Best golf tournament of the year. And we cannot watch all of it live in 2024. It's a joke. Put it all on TV or online. I don't care. But I wanna watch it Thursday morning.

Broadcasting rights for the Masters are notoriously restrictive, though the Masters App offers some relief.

Banning the hip drop tackle is a massive mistake for the NFL

Banning that [swivel hip drop tackle] would be a massive, massive mistake. Mistake, mistake... It's such a subjective call because you have to have certain elements that are involved in the speed that the game's played at. You're gonna have referees that are like, 'I think that was a hip drop tackle. I'm not really sure.'

The rule has been highly controversial in the 2024 season, with many fans and analysts sharing PFT's sentiment about its subjectivity.

A big NFL game will be decided by a hip drop tackle penalty this year

The first reason in my mind is we have just added a rule that is going to be debated similar to can't land on the quarterback. There will be a big, big game decided by the hip drop. Because what is it, what's the penalty now? Is it 15 yards?

Whether a 'big game' was decided specifically by a hip drop tackle penalty is hard to definitively verify. The rule was implemented but no singular iconic game-deciding hip drop tackle penalty dominated headlines.

Banning the hip drop tackle makes tight ends even more valuable

I also think this now makes the tight end position even more valuable because a lot of the hip drop tackles are defensive back, smaller guys getting beat a little bit and trying to slow down a bigger guy with a hip drop tackle where he is trying to, you know, don't ride on top of him and let him get a couple extra yards. Try to stop his momentum and bring him backwards. I now that you can't do that, I think tight ends are gonna eat in the flats.

Tight end usage remains high, but it's hard to definitively attribute their success solely to the hip-drop ban versus general offensive trends.

This is the Knicks' championship to lose

This series is over. Right. And the Spurs Thunder series looks like it's going at least six, probably seven. Like it looks like an absolute battle. Yeah. So that's good for them. The Spurs all things, I mean, this is, this is the Knicks championship to lose.

The Knicks are currently in the second round/Conference finals (implied), so they haven't won the championship yet.

My official stance on the Toucher & Rich radio beef is simply 'fuck 'em'

I'm not leading this battle. They took a shot. I said fuck him. And that's where I stand... Official stance. So you guys can just fuck him.

Subjective personal stance.

I did not fart during the Kellen Moore interview; it was just air that fell out of my body

The sound did come out of me, my body. But it was not a conscious fart... Most farts air coming out of your asshole, max, most farts max have to push. Like most farts, you're like, this one fell out... I was not like, consciously like, oh, I got a fart. But when I lifted up my leg, I, I guess I had like gas down there... A dude came out of my ass. That was so loud.

It was definitively a fart.
