The Final Four is a better and more fun sporting event to attend than the Super Bowl

I think the Final Four is borderline funner [than the Super Bowl] because the Sunday that you have... you get basically to drink all day Saturday, then you get a Sunday to come and like explore a city, have fun, see friends, all that stuff.

The 'fun factor' of a sports trip is entirely subjective.

Most sports fans no longer care about college athletes getting paid or schools facing NCAA violations

It is the perfect champion for this day and age where the rules have changed. I'd say most people don't give a fuck about college players getting paid whatsoever. And the NCAA has just been dragging their feet... they're giving a trophy to a school that is also facing violations.

Public apathy toward NCAA violations is an observable trend but ultimately a matter of opinion.

Kansas winning the 2022 national title is justice for their 2020 team having the tournament cancelled

It's justice though for Kansas for 2020, because going into that tournament... we I think we had Kansas number one overall seed. I think we picked them to win the championship in 2020 and the fake bracket. It's good to see Kansas get this bag.

This is a subjective interpretation of 'justice' in sports history.

Bill Self has the second-best active coaching resume behind Rick Pitino

Does Bill Self now, out of all the active coaches, have the second-best resume only to Rick Pitino? This second one for Bill Self puts him in rarefied air and it cements everything that he's done at Kansas. He has more wins than Jay Wright. He has gone to the tournament 23 straight years, and 12 out of those 23 he's gotten to at least the Elite Eight.

While subjective, Self's resume is widely considered top-tier. Pitino and Self are both Hall of Famers with multiple titles at multiple programs (though Pitino's titles are at two different schools).

Tom Brady helping Mike Macdonald prepare for the Patriots would be a huge slap in the face to the New England region.

That would be egregious if that was true. I don't believe it is true. But if it were, that would be unforgivable. Not unforgivable. That would be a, a blemish, a big blemish. Big time. It'd be a slap in the face of the whole region.

Subjective opinion on how a hypothetical rumor would be perceived.

Jayson Tatum is playing cute by claiming he found out about the Jaylen Brown trade on social media.

I'm sure he knew that he was on the trading block and he didn't know specifically when he got traded and he found out just like everyone else... all Brad Stevens, Jaylen Brown, they talked about how, you know, he was gonna be on the trading block and they were gonna try and move him. So I'm sure Jayson Tatum was also aware of that. But in terms of, he's probably playing a little, a little cutesy there where like no one specifically told him, 'Hey, this is the trade.' He found out like everyone else. But I'm sure he was not surprised and fully aware what the plan was.

Subjective interpretation of Tatum's PR framing.
