Alex Cora should get a lifetime ban just because it sounds 'juicy'

Alex Cora, I'm not in favor of a lifetime ban, but I am in favor of hearing the term lifetime ban. Oh, yeah. Definitely. It's awesome hearing Alex Cora has been issued a lifetime ban from baseball. Like I don't think that he deserves it and what I deserve to hear that... there's nothing more satisfying than just like when you read the words lifetime bans.

Alex Cora was suspended for the 2020 season but was not issued a lifetime ban; he returned to manage the Red Sox in 2021.

LSU is in the conversation for the best college football team of all time

Doubting them was the... I mean they are in the conversation for best college football team of all time. They beat five out of the top eight teams. They destroyed everyone. They had the best resume of any college football team to ever exist.

The 2019 LSU team is widely considered one of, if not the greatest, college football teams ever due to their undefeated record and strength of schedule.

I would have been a more effective offensive coordinator for LSU early in the national title game

In the first quarter when they were getting there were losing the field position battle you're getting pinned... I was yelling. I was screaming at the field because I was like, you need to have a running back in the backfield at least pretend like you're going to run the ball. I was questioned the play calls there... I talked to a lot of shit about [Joe Brady's] play calling. I thought it was bad on the first couple drives.

LSU went on to win comfortably and Joe Brady's offense exploded, making the early criticisms look foolish in hindsight, which PFT admits.

Urban Meyer failing to start Joe Burrow is a stain on his legacy as a talent evaluator

I think it's time to have the conversation whether or not Urban Meyer if it's a stain on his legacy that he did not start Joe Burrow. Is he a bad Talent evaluator? We as a nation need to have that conversation.

While subjective, it is a factual point of debate that Meyer let a Heisman winner and #1 overall pick leave his building.

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.
