The 'Send Beer Money' Venmo kid on College GameDay is a fake viral ad

No, you don't do that. Seemed a little fishy... Nowhere to be found. No one can find Sam Crowder... It's a fake. It's a viral ad.

Sam Crowder was a real person (an Iowa State student) who actually raised over $1 million for a children's hospital after the sign went viral. It was not a corporate ad.

Ryan Fitzpatrick is a top three NFL quarterback if given infinite time against a bad defense

I still think Ryan Fitzpatrick is – I think he's a top three quarterback in the NFL if you give him a lot of time and if you play against a bad defense.

Fitzpatrick had a career year in 2015 but threw 6 interceptions in a single game later this season, proving he was never top three.

Jeff Fisher's blueprint for job security is to ingrain yourself in every small facet of the company

Jeff Fisher gives everybody in corporate America a great blueprint for how to keep your job. You just – you ingrain yourself into every small facet of your company. It doesn't matter if you're doing your job well... If you just spread yourself out far enough into an organization, you're never going to get fired.

Jeff Fisher was eventually fired later that season (December 2016), proving the blueprint has limits.

Jeff Fisher only keeps his job because he looks like a 'football guy'

Jeff Fisher is the reason why people judge books by their cover. Because Jeff Fisher looks like a football guy. He's got that look. He's got the mustache. He's got that angry... look on his face. So you look at him and you're like, how could we fire this guy?

Subjective analysis of Jeff Fisher's aesthetic appeal to NFL owners.

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.

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.
