Shohei Ohtani was just playing against electricians in the World Baseball Classic

If you're talking about Shohei, you can literally say he was just playing against electricians. He got shut out by an electrician.

While technically true that some players on smaller nations' teams had day jobs (like the Czech electrician), it is an absurd reduction of the tournament's overall talent level.

The Ravens are using a physical loophole to back out of the Maxx Crosby trade

I'm calling bullshit on all this. It does feel like something's fishy here. And maybe it's just the Ravens using the loophole of, hey, we can see, we can trade for Maxx Crosby, see how the rest of free agency plays out, knowing that this stupid legal tampering and then official free agency, there's a two day gap and then just figure it out later.

The trade was literally rescinded, but the 'nefarious loophole' theory is a subjective interpretation of front office tactics.

The Ravens are using Maxx Crosby's failed physical as a convenient excuse to back out of the trade

Either one, [the Ravens] really trust the doctor to believe them on that or two, it's bullshit and it's made up and they're secretly planning a different move and they're using the physical as an excuse to get out of it.

The trade was indeed rescinded, but whether the 'physical failed' was a legitimate medical concern or a front for buyer's remorse remains a matter of speculation.

The Raiders' short statement indicates Mark Davis is furious about the rescinded trade

The statement that the Raiders put out said a lot, which is just like 'they backed out of the trade. We have no further comment.' That to me sounds like a pissed off Mark Davis.

This is an interpretation of tone and cannot be objectively proven true or false.

LIV Golf is effectively dead and the league will likely cancel its season before next year

I think Liv might be done. I mean, I think they were trying hard to find some new sponsors that looks like it's going a little harder than they expected. ... I think they canceled this event and it's looking like the league cancellation will probably happen at some point before next season.

LIV Golf continues to operate; this was a satirical bit.

Brad Stevens traded Jaylen Brown to the Sixers as a '4D chess' move to implode the team

I think that this could be the greatest thing that Brad Stevens has ever done. I think he's playing 4D chess. He knew what he was doing with the Jaylen Brown trade. And now with LeBron, like all the pressure's now on LeBron. Jaylen Brown didn't want to be a number two option with Boston. And now the Sixers, it's like he might be number four.

Requires seeing if the Sixers implode or win a championship.

The Boston Celtics are back to being scrappy underdogs after the Sixers signed LeBron

We're back to being the scrappy underdogs, which I feel like is where the Celtics thrives. So it's like everyone's expecting it's gonna be Knicks or Sixers. Everyone's forgetting about the Celtics. That's a fun spot to be in.
