Brad Stevens is on the hot seat in Boston if he can't beat LeBron James

Brad Stevens is also on the hot seat in Boston. If you can't find a way to beat LeBron, I think you've got to fire him.

Brad Stevens was never fired; he eventually moved from head coach to President of Basketball Operations for the Celtics. He never beat LeBron in a playoff series during LeBron's second Cavs stint.

Serena Williams could beat Roger Federer

I'm going to say it. I think Serena could beat Roger Federer. Ooh, okay. I'm actually going to be the first person to say that, so come at me.

Serena Williams is widely considered the greatest female player ever, but she has stated herself she would struggle against top-tier men's players like Federer.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver will appear in a blockbuster movie as himself within the year

The only thing Silver hasn't done yet, I don't think, I can't recall him appearing in a movie as himself, like a big blockbuster movie, but I guarantee within the next year he's going to do it.

Adam Silver did not appear in a blockbuster movie as himself in the 2017-2018 window. He finally had a cameo in the movie 'Hustle', but that wasn't until 2022.

Chick-fil-A would sell 16% more chicken if they opened on Sundays

I've actually got a foolproof idea for how you guys can sell at least 16% more chicken. ... Open your [restaurants] on Sundays. That's the only day of the week that I want to eat Chick-fil-A is when I'm hungover on Sunday and it's always closed.

While mathematically adding a 7th day would increase sales (roughly 14.3%), Chick-fil-A's per-unit productivity on its 6 open days often outpaces competitors, making the 'loss' of a 7th day complex to calculate. However, they remain closed on Sundays.

Garrett Bolles should catch a pass before he retires

I want to be able to bet on Garrett Bolles to have one reception in every game. Because I feel like Sean Payton is going to try to get him that touch. He definitely will because he doesn't want him to retire as the guy who never touched the ball.

It requires Garrett Bolles to record a touch before the end of his career; that has not been resolved here.

The Eagles' offense might be better without A.J. Brown

I actually think that the offense might be better without A.J. Brown.

Whether Philadelphia's offense performs better without A.J. Brown is a season-level comparative claim and is not reliably resolved here.

The Chargers should eliminate their kicking game and go for it every time

The Chargers should just not have a punter. They should not have a kicker. They shouldn't even have like a long snapper on the team. Use those positions on somebody else and you're just—burn the boats. You're just going for it all the time. Fuck it. Who cares? Right? Season's over. Might as well try to score some points.

This is a deliberately satirical roster-building proposal, not a prediction that can be objectively graded.
