Bristol, Connecticut is the worst city in the United States

Bristol, Connecticut. I'm not saying that because of ESPN. I'm saying that because I've actually been to Bristol. If you look at TripAdvisor's top ten things to do in Bristol... one is a water park... and then three out of the other top four are like a museum of clocks. A clock museum... And then another one is the Museum of Fire.

Subjective ranking of a city.

Animals are better at gambling than humans

If there's one thing that I know about animals is that they're really good at gambling. You know how dogs can predict earthquakes? The octopus, he picked every single game [of the World Cup] correctly. So, yeah, Larry [the Goldfish] is going to absolutely kill it.

While funny, Larry the Goldfish (and animals in general) do not have a statistical edge in NFL gambling over the long term.

I would bet against Larry the Goldfish surviving for five months

If you were a betting person and you were to gamble on to whether or not we could keep a goldfish alive for five months, the answer is I would take no.

The first Larry (Larry I) passed away on November 1, 2016, which was less than three months after this episode aired.

If Chip Kelly cuts Colin Kaepernick, he will be called a racist for the first time

And now if Chip Kelly cuts [Kaepernick], then for the first time is going to be called a racist. And that's not a look that Chip Kelly wants.

Kaepernick was not cut during the 2016 season; he stayed on the roster and eventually opted out in early 2017.

The Falcons are a real, flawed good team

I do think that the Falcons are real. Yeah. I think that they're a good team. They're a flawed good team.

This is a subjective assessment of the Falcons.

The Falcons may have the NFL's best skill-position group

I think that if the Falcons can do that, they have maybe the best set of skill position players in the NFL. If you're able to protect Penix, he's good enough to distribute it and then just let their awesome players do awesome shit.

This is a subjective ranking of NFL skill-position groups.

MLB's proposed check-swing replay would make everything a check swing

Yeah. Parallel with the plate. Yeah. That's what I thought the rule was. And apparently that's just not the rule anymore. If they ever bring this system to Major League Baseball, I get—everything's a check swing.

This is a prediction/opinion about a proposed rule and its practical effect, not a settled fact.
