Baylor should blow up the Robert Griffin III statue to move past their scandals

There's a statue of Robert Griffin outside the stadium. I think that thing needs to come down like that Saddam statue in Baghdad. Blow it up.

The statue was never blown up; it remains a fixture at McLane Stadium.

Everyone in MLB is stealing signs, and the Red Sox cheating isn't a big deal

I mean, shit happens in MLB. Everyone's stealing signs. It's a constant back and forth of teams stealing each other's signs.

While sign stealing is a part of baseball, using electronics (Apple Watches) was a specific violation of MLB rules at the time.

Millennials have ruined the tradition of cheating in baseball by using computers instead of 'boys will be boys' methods

Love that baseball still has the boys will be boys unwritten rule that you can cheat otherwise. Just don't use computers. Millennials have ruined cheating in baseball. That's what I'm taking out of the story.

This is a satirical social commentary on baseball culture.

The Red Sox Apple Watch scandal is good for baseball because it fuels the Yankees rivalry

Baseball needs rivalries. Red Sox-Yankees has been simmering. This kind of brings it up a notch.

The 2017/2018 Red Sox-Yankees seasons were indeed highly competitive and heated, though largely due to the teams being good rather than just this specific scandal.

The Brewers are what baseball fans say they want

The Brewers are everything that I think most people say that they want in a baseball team now. The knock against the direction baseball's been going for the last 10 years is you strike out, you hit home runs. And that's the way that you do it with the Brewers.

This is an evaluative claim about the Brewers' style and what fans want, so it is inherently subjective.

The Broncos would have won with the quarterbacks reversed

If quarterbacks were reversed tonight, who wins? Broncos. I think Drew Lock on the Broncos would've won tonight.

This is a counterfactual opinion about a completed game and cannot be definitively verified.

The 24-team playoff is the ongoing Savannah-ification of sports

It's the ongoing Savannah-ification of sports in America. It's a sad day.

This is a broad cultural opinion about sports commercialization and cannot be objectively resolved.
