The Atlanta Hawks are currently playing like an elite basketball team

The Hawks had a really good off-season. Revamped their entire team and now they're just playing like elite basketball. They're just super athletic, they're super fast and they can shoot the three.

While the Atlanta Hawks had a strong finish to the 2025-2026 regular season, securing a playoff spot and division title, their performance in the playoffs did not demonstrate 'elite basketball.' They were eliminated in the first round, losing 4-2 to the New York Knicks, with the series ending in three consecutive blowout losses, including a record-setting 51-point defeat in the final game.

Rory McIlroy is ducking this podcast and it is a glaring empty spot on his resume

A lot of people are saying that Rory can't go on the big one. That he's been ducking this and that's gonna be the one glaring empty spot on his resume when everyone looks at it, when it's all said and done.

While Rory has never appeared on PMT, the idea that it is a 'glaring empty spot' on his actual professional resume is humorously subjective.

Rory McIlroy would have choked this Masters away if he hadn't won last year

I actually think that if he didn't win last year, this one, he would've probably choked away because he kind of had that huge lead. He had a six-stroke lead going into the weekend. He did not play great on Saturday. Everyone kind of caught up to him. He didn't make any huge, huge mistakes on the back nine because he felt confident.

This is a psychological counter-factual that cannot be proven, but it aligns with Rory's history of major struggles prior to 2025.

Scottie Scheffler missed his critical putt on 17 because he knows the course too much and overthinks it

The putt on 17 just didn't turn at the last second. It was like half a ball that he missed by. Sometimes these guys know the course too much and they overthink the course. It's like if you're married to somebody for like 60 years, all you do is fight. You know, you lose sight of what makes that person so great.

A common golf trope about over-reading greens, though impossible to verify.

The Jets will not win another game this season

Also, Jets aren't winning a game for the rest of the year.

The claim can be resolved by whether the Jets win another game during the 2026 regular season, but the final outcome is not reliably known here.

Geno Smith is playing scared to protect his next contract

Geno is gun-shy this year and he's trying to play for a contract. If you look at his stats, he's actually having a really good year. But if you look at the film, he's so gun-shy. He's trying to purposely not throw any interceptions.

This is an interpretation of Geno Smith's decision-making and motives, not a definitively verifiable claim.

The Jets' season is over

The season's over. No, it's done. No, season ended officially ended one week before Halloween. Made it further than last year.

The Jets' eventual season outcome will determine whether this early elimination call was accurate.
