The Mountain West stinks and the conference's teams will lose every game in the NCAA Tournament

The Mountain West stinks. Mountain West loses every game. UAB plus six and a half. ... UAB is a pretty good program. ... I think UAB's pretty good.

The Mountain West went 4-6 in the 2024 tournament, with San Diego State reaching the Sweet 16, though most other teams (Boise State, Colorado State, Nevada, New Mexico) lost early.

The winner of Oakland vs. NC State will be the story of the tournament heading into the Sweet 16

What the winner of that game [Oakland vs. NC State] is going to be the talk of the week leading up to Sweet 16 because it'll be a great story either way.

The winner was NC State, and DJ Burns/the Wolfpack's run became the dominant story of the tournament as they advanced to the Final Four.

Dana Altman is the most underrated coach in America

Dana Altman my most underrated coach in America. I love how he coaches basketball. Dana Altman and the Oregon Ducks... Fun fact, Dana Altman is now 8-0 in first round NCAA tournaments. He is such a good coach and he has them overachieving every single year.

This is subjective, but Altman's consistent success as a double-digit seed supports the claim.

MLB will avoid banning Shohei Ohtani because he is too valuable to the league's revenue

It seems to me like baseball, given how much money they stand to make from Ohtani, really does not want to have to treat Ohtani like they would anyone. Can you imagine if it was a utility player that paid off four and a half million dollars? How fast would that guy be banned for baseball for life?

Ohtani was ultimately cleared of wrongdoing by MLB and federal investigators, while his interpreter was charged. PFT's cynicism about the 'star treatment' remains subjective.

The Philadelphia 76ers make the most basketball sense for LeBron James in free agency.

I think it's the Cavs, but I'm reading every report in hopes that it's a Sixers. So I, I just, in my heart of hearts, I can't support Cavs when I want it to be Sixers... Basketball wise, it makes the most sense for sure. I mean it's the one thing that the Sixers are missing. They need, like they don't have a, LeBron could be like a true point guard and be a facilitator for the good players on the, for the stars on the team. And he's a four that could defend multiple positions.

This is inherently subjective, as he is arguing about what makes the 'most sense' rather than strictly predicting where LeBron will sign.

Any man who asks for a blanket because he's cold isn't a real man

Any man who is, who is cold, you're not a man. Is not a man. Not a man. ... Or if they're like, oh, I'm cold. Do you have a blanket that I can use?

Anyone complaining about Bryce Harper being credited with a triple against the Diamondbacks doesn't know baseball

It was. They scored a triple. It was, it's a triple. ... He would've been thrown out for sure. Yeah. But it is a triple and anyone who's complaining about it being a triple does not know ball.

The official scorer did rule it a triple, making Max technically correct according to MLB records.
