The Gillette Stadium structure is the largest lighthouse in the continental U.S.

The Patriots built the largest Lighthouse in continental us. It was, you know, discussed, promoted... Let's make the biggest Lighthouse in the continental US Asterisk. No big deal.

The Patriots marketing team claimed it as the tallest 'functioning' lighthouse in the U.S., but it is not a recognized aid to navigation by the Coast Guard, making the claim technically deceptive.

The NFL should not ban the 'tush push' play

I love the tush push. I think if you don't like it, then stop it. Figure out a way to stop it until then. If you don't like it, you can either try to figure out how to make teams stop doing it to you or do it yourself.

The NFL Competition Committee ultimately decided not to ban the play for the 2024 season.

The Eagles would still be 97% successful on the QB sneak even if the 'tush push' were banned

I actually think that if they ban this play, I think the Eagles will still do it. And it will go from like 99% success to like 97% success... 90% of the time [Jalen Hurts] is getting those yards himself.

The play wasn't banned, so this hypothetical couldn't be tested, though the Eagles' sneak success did slightly dip in late 2023.

The Eagles vs. Dolphins game on October 22nd will be the ultimate clash of football styles

I would love to see that matchup though. The Dolphins against the Eagles—two distinct styles of offense. [The Eagles] tush pushing all over the place... the best offense right now in football is a team that plays with everyone out wide in the Miami Dolphins.

This was indeed a massive regular season game that lived up to the hype, with the Eagles winning 31-17.

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 will be traded to the New England Patriots

[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.
