The 76ers should shut down Joel Embiid and tank for Cooper Flagg

They stink. Joel Embiid, they should shut him down for the season and they should tank for Cooper Flagg.

The 76ers did effectively shut down Embiid (he played only 19 games before knee surgery) and finished 24-58, 13th in the East. However, the Dallas Mavericks got the #1 pick and drafted Cooper Flagg, not the 76ers.

The Rams could have won the Super Bowl last year if a few things had broken differently

I went away from the playoffs being like the Rams were right there. If a couple things break differently, they could have feasibly won the Super Bowl.

Opinion Football Medium Subjective

The Rams lost to the Eagles in the divisional round; whether they could have won it all is subjective but they were competitive.

Sam Darnold will take less money to play for the Rams next season

I think [Sam Darnold] probably would take a little bit less money to play for, for Los Angeles than another team if it came down to that.

Prediction Football Medium

PFT Commenter predicted Sam Darnold would take less money to play for the Rams. Darnold signed a 3-year, $110.5M deal with the Seattle Seahawks, not the Rams. He did not take less money or go to Los Angeles.

Alex Ovechkin will break the NHL goal record this season against the Penguins on April 17th

I think he's gonna do it this year. I think he's gonna do it against the [Penguins] at the end of the season... having him break it right in Sidney Crosby's face would be incredible. It's the last game of the regular season at Pittsburgh.

Prediction Hockey Medium

Ovechkin broke the NHL goal record on April 6, 2025, against the New York Islanders at UBS Arena, not against the Penguins on April 17th as predicted. He scored goal #895 to pass Gretzky's record of 894.
