Aaron Rodgers is waiting for the NFL Draft to finalize his next team to avoid being 'Kirk Cousined'

I feel like all this is gonna get settled right after the draft... I think that's why Rodgers is waiting because he doesn't want to have a Kirk Cousins situation where he signs somewhere they draft someone and then they're like, 'oh yeah, it's your job.'

Aaron Rodgers did sign with the Steelers, and the timing was around the draft period. However, the 'Kirk Cousins' concern about being drafted over was not the primary factor; Rodgers simply chose Pittsburgh.

Cooper Flagg is a choker

Even though [Cooper Flagg] is a choker. That's fine.

Cooper Flagg averaged 18.9 PPG at Duke, scored 27 in Final Four, was drafted #1 overall, averaging 21 PPG as NBA rookie. Not a choker.

Paying Josh Giddey $35 million a year would be a massive mistake for the Bulls

They also have a guy named Josh Giddey who they're gonna probably pay $35 million to, which would be a very big mistake... Josh Giddey is just good enough to get you in the play-in game and not the playoffs.

The Bulls signed Giddey to a 4-year, $100M extension ($25M/year), less than the $35M predicted. Whether it's a mistake depends on Giddey's future performance, but the contract was more modest than feared.

The Chicago Bulls are a joke of an organization with no path forward

This franchise [the Bulls] is a joke and it should be called out as a joke and stop pretending that March and April basketball means something and actually pick a lane and go for it. They do not know how to tank. They do not know how to win.

The Bulls' performance over the last decade supports the claim of mediocrity, though 'joke' is subjective.

The 4-1 loss to Belgium was the worst USMNT performance in years

That was the worst performance from the US that I've seen in years. Just completely lackluster from the start. So much blame to go around. Tim Ream, friend of the program, good guy over the hill, turned into soccer Shawn Bradley before our very eyes got dunked on twice.

Subjective opinion on the quality of the performance.

Christian Pulisic was a 'no-show' and looked like he didn't care against Belgium

Christian Pulisic, the long anointed Captain America future face of this league for American soccer. Absolute no show of a game, I would say worse than a no show of a game. And then he checks himself out. Just looks lackluster, looks like he doesn't care at all. Had the most turnovers on the field of anybody. That played just really, really, really bad.

Subjective evaluation of Pulisic's effort and performance.

The US will never close the skill gap compared to the rest of the world in soccer

People will never close the skill gap. USA will never close the skill gap compared to the rest of the world in soccer.

Historically, the US has struggled to produce technical talent on par with Brazil or Europe.
