An NFL player has definitely already played a game while COVID-positive this year

I guarantee that there has been an NFL player that has played a game this year with coronavirus and it might be on the Titans. The NFL's plan was let's just keep it all hush-hush until a team has an outbreak... I'm pretty sure that you can test negative the day of a game and then start becoming contagious later that day.

Later investigations and the incubation period of the virus confirmed that several players likely played while pre-symptomatic or in the early stages of infection during the 2020 season.

The Baltimore Ravens are frauds until they can win from behind

The Baltimore Ravens are frauds. They are F-R-A-U-D-S frauds. They panic, they look terrible on Monday Night Football. The stat was 18 and 0 with a ten-point lead, 0 and 5 with a ten-point deficit. They can't come from behind. They're very good team, but kind of like Oregon back in the day with Chip Kelly... until I see it, I don't trust that the Ravens offense can work when it gets in a hole.

The Ravens finished 11-5 and won a playoff game but were eliminated in the Divisional round after falling behind the Bills, somewhat validating the 'play from behind' critique.

The Baltimore Ravens are the Houston Rockets of the NFL

Are the Baltimore Ravens the Houston Rockets of the NFL? Their analytics are Mickey Mouse-ish. By any objective measurement the Baltimore Ravens are awesome... and then in the playoffs the Chiefs are going to beat them by 40. They shit pump all the bad teams, but when the chips are down... they fall short.

Both teams at the time were known for high-efficiency regular seasons and early playoff exits against the eventual champions.

I agree that the 3-0 Bears are frauds and not an exceptional team

I have a lot of Ravens fans be like, 'dude, the Bears are frauds.' I agree that they [the Bears] kind of are. I don't think the Bears are like an exceptional team. I won't apologize for three and oh, while also thinking like, 'yeah, this might not end so well.'

The 2020 Bears started 5-1 but finished 8-8 and were widely regarded as a mediocre team that lucked into a playoff spot.

The 2026 World Cup final was boring and sucked.

It was boring ass soccer. It sucked. It made me thankful that the World Cup's over, that football's back. Now we can get back into real football, which I'm very, very thankful for. But that was actually, I think that was the best way to end the World Cup, because I'm totally fine with no more soccer now.

Fanatics Fest is a cynical place designed only to take money from fans.

It also seems like the most cynical place ever. Like, you can go to an autograph festival or a fan festival and you know that the guys are being paid to be there. And they're still like, happy to see, interact with you, all that shit. It just seems like every single thing about being at that place is just designed to take money from the people that are there.

Bryson DeChambeau is being targeted by selective rule enforcement.

I think that Bryson definitely did it and it's definitely against the rules. And he got caught for it and they enforced it against him because he's a bad boy. He's had some run-ins before. I don't think the R&A or whatever, I don't think they're particularly happy with Bryson right now.
