NFL referees are intentionally not calling false starts on the tush push so they can use the tape to ban it in the offseason.

Refs are purposely not calling the false starts so that they can use that in the off season to ban it... they thought of how can we get a reason of why this should be banned? Say it's hard to officiate it, don't officiate it correctly, then it'll be banned.

This is an unprovable conspiracy theory about referee intent.

The College Football Playoff committee is intentionally keeping JMU out because they don't want any 'presidents' in the bracket

I think it's a anti-PFT thing. I think maybe the college football playoff committee has gone woke and they don't want any presidents in their bracket. Makes sense. It's sad. I mean, just fast forward 20 years, Trump University probably will be blacklisted too.

Hot TakeCFBHotSarcastic
The committee rankings are based on performance and strength of schedule, not a political aversion to 'presidents'.

If South Florida wins out, they absolutely deserve to be in the College Football Playoff.

If South Florida runs the table... I also understand that South Florida is deserved to go in. Because they went and they beat Florida, you know, in the swamp. So that, you know, that's a, that's a big, big time win.

Whether a G5 champion with a signature P4 win 'deserves' a spot is a matter of opinion, though USF did beat Florida in 2025.

James Madison deserves a playoff spot because they are undefeated on Saturdays.

One school [James Madison] has not lost on a single Saturday... Undefeated on Saturdays. The other school [South Florida] has lost twice on Saturdays... You better hope to God that it's on a Friday if you don't put the undefeated on Saturday team in.

The merit of a team's record based on the day of the week is inherently subjective and satirical.

I've thought AJ Brown was probably going for a while now. I think it's just gonna, he's just gonna get traded after June 1st.

Brown remained on the Eagles roster past June 1st, 2026.

The NBA's 65-game award rule was specifically created because of Joel Embiid

It's a thousand percent... it's literally the Joel Embiid rule. No, this rule was made because of Joel Embiid. They made the rule because of Joel Embiid because people were upset that he won the MVP and they didn't think that he played enough games.

While the rule was spurred by 'load management' trends, Embiid played 66 games in his MVP season, meaning he would have qualified under the current rule anyway.

The Phillies will regress to a wild card team and lose in the first round

I think Phillies are regressing. They'll still make the playoffs as a wild card team. They'll sneak in and then lose in the first round.

Depends on the 2026 Phillies performance.
