Tim Tebow was signed by Urban Meyer purely to act as a heat shield for Trevor Lawrence

I'm also just a huge fan of the narrative that [Urban Meyer] brought in Tebow just to take off heat off Trevor Lawrence... Tebow is just going to be too much of a natural leader and take all the heat, including from the players, off Trevor Lawrence.

Tebow was cut early in the preseason, and Lawrence faced significant media scrutiny regardless during a disastrous 3-14 rookie season under Meyer.

The pandemic has caused fans to lose their minds and forget how to behave in arenas

I do think the pandemic has fucked people up more than we realize. And people are just getting back into the real world and losing their fucking minds. Preseason. Yes, preseason. No one knows how to act right now. Give it a couple weeks. I do not think it's some huge epidemic where this is going to be the new norm that fans are just fucking with players constantly.

Fan incidents did eventually decrease in frequency from the initial post-reopening peak, though occasional incidents persist. His prediction that it wouldn't be the 'new norm' largely held true.

The media will soon claim that sports were better without fans in the building

I'm going to level it up. I'm going to say by the time you're hearing my voice, if it's in the afternoon tomorrow... somebody will have already written the take that sports were better when there were no fans in the building.

Many articles were indeed written in June 2021 debating the value of fans vs. the safety of players after incidents involving Kyrie Irving, Trae Young, and Russell Westbrook.

The Celtics will not win another game in their series against the Nets

[Jason Tatum] had 50, right? Yeah, that's fine... The starting lineup, it's one of those things where it doesn't matter. You could play those starting two lineups 100 times and the Celtics might win one. [Big Cat: 'Can we call it over?'] 100%. It's over.

The Nets won Game 5 on June 1st to close out the series 4-1. The Celtics did not win another game.

The Jets in Week 16 are a layup win for the Patriots

We get the, the Jets, which is a nice, like layup week 16 leading into the Broncos and the Dolphins. So we got like kinda two easy wins and then a tough challenge week 17.

Outcome depends on the 2026 NFL season results.

I would love to give a detailed presentation on the pros and cons of every international NFL city

I would love to give a detailed presentation on pros and cons of each city. Something to think about. 11. I'm willing to show how much I care about these international games. And I feel like the only way to do real journalism is to go and feel it and take it in yourselves.

This is a statement of intent/desire regarding show content.

Rory McIlroy's foot blister will ruin his chances at the PGA Championship

I think it's gonna hurt his chances honestly. Have you ever played golf on a blister? We'll see how, I mean, I think it's gonna hurt his chances honestly.

Rory McIlroy was indeed dealing with a foot blister leading up to and during the PGA Championship, even cutting a practice round short. While he had a poor first round (74), he recovered significantly in the second and third rounds (67 and 66 respectively) and was in contention for the final round. Since the PGA Championship is still ongoing as of the review date, the ultimate impact of the blister on his chances of winning cannot be definitively determined yet.
