The Dodgers have a chance to win more games than any team in MLB history this season

They have an incredible team. They have a chance to win more games than any team in Major League Baseball history this season if they can manage to stay healthy.

The Dodgers finished the 2025 regular season 93-69, far short of the MLB all-time wins record (116 wins by the 2001 Mariners). While they won the World Series, they did not come close to the most wins in MLB history as Jeff Passan suggested was possible.

Texas Tech deserves all the credit for their win over Arkansas

Texas Tech, incredible fight by them. They deserve all the credit. They willed it... Texas Tech, we deserve that game.

The outcome of the game is a matter of record; the 'credit' is an opinion.

No team in the country beats Alabama when they shoot like they did against BYU

I don't think any team in the country beats Alabama if they're shooting like that. It was absolutely nuts.

While hypothetical, Alabama did lose later in the tournament when they didn't shoot at that historic clip.

Florida will make the Final Four

Florida killed Maryland and Florida's really, really good. I expect Florida to go to the Final Four.

Florida made the Final Four as a #1 seed, defeating Texas Tech in the Elite Eight 84-79, then beating Auburn in the semifinal 79-70, and ultimately winning the national championship by beating Houston 65-63.

MLB has the best trade deadline in sports by a mile

I believe it was 42 [trades] on Deadline Day alone. And baseball's... I don't think the NFL's trade deadline day is anything like this. The NBA's usually has at least a few big moves. But to me, baseball has the best trade deadline by a mile, even if it's a bunch of jobbers who are going back and forth.

Subjective comparison of sporting event excitement levels.

Sports fans should value winning right now over potential future gratification

We've been conditioned as sports fans... to accept that now is not as important as the future. And I hate that. I hate that as a sports fan. I want executives and owners to treat this year like it's the last year that's going to be played. I want them to have reckless abandon trying to go for a championship right now. Because we don't know what the future's going to look like.

This is a philosophy on sports management.

The Orioles' trade of Adley Rutschman was a reset, not a rebuild, and they 'crushed' the deal

I think this is more reset than rebuild though... to ship him away, it's painful. Getting back Anthony Sasson and Kaizen Witherspoon and Andy Zakar and Carlos Nevas, like they crushed that deal. The Red Sox understood they were overpaying significantly.

The long-term impact of the trade will take years to fully evaluate.
