Bryson DeChambeau lied about his dog to get internet clout

Bryson DeChambeau got him Duffy big time in a massive massive internet controversy. He took a picture with their golden retriever, Trigger is a name of this dog. And he said this dog Trigger was here and helped me win the amateur open back in 2015. Well record scratch, it turns out the Trigger, the sweet boy, was born in 2017. So Bryson got him tied up trying to chase them internet clout like a dog chasing his tail. Got caught big time.

The timeline of the dog's birth vs. the 2015 tournament was indeed a viral story at the time, confirming Bryson's inaccuracy.

Hard Knocks needs the preseason to be good

Here's my theory. Hard Knocks needs the preseason because you watch Hard Knocks on Tuesday nights and then you watch the actual games happen and you see what's happening on the field. You're like, oh, there's that cornerback that we keep hearing about who's trying to make the team. We've lost that element. So now we're just watching like, oh, let's just check in with this training camp. It kind of ruins everything.

The 2020 season of Hard Knocks is widely regarded by fans and critics as one of the dullest due to the lack of preseason games and COVID protocols, supporting the take.

Stadiums built for the World Cup in Brazil and China are starting to fall apart and it's awesome to look at

If anyone out there is like me who loves to look at empty stadium porn, we are in the perfect spot for all the stadiums in Brazil to the World Cup was played in they're starting to fall apart and it's fucking sick to look at. In China right now... it's getting good again. Overgrown with vines. They look like the Astrodome.

The 'abandoned stadiums' aesthetic is a subjective preference, but the fact that these stadiums are falling into disrepair is well-documented.

Tyrod Taylor is destined to be replaced by a rookie for the third time in his career

Tyrod Taylor, the cut god. They brought that up how he got stuck by Josh Allen, then got cooked by Baker Mayfield, and now he's about to get [replaced] a third time. It just happens. People get cooked.

Justin Herbert did indeed replace Tyrod Taylor early in the 2020 season after a team doctor accidentally punctured Tyrod's lung with a painkiller injection.

The Chiefs' window never closed

I don't think we ever actually closed the Chiefs' window. I think Mahomes was just in bed because he was injured, far away from the window.

The Chiefs' long-term contention status is ultimately subjective, though their dynasty remained active at the time of the episode.

By the end of this season, Mahomes is gonna be back to being Mahomes.

Whether Mahomes returned to his established level by the end of the 2026 NFL season had not yet been resolved.

The Oregon loss could turn Dan Lanning into a psychopath

I don't think that Dan Lanning has slept since that loss. I think Dan Lanning has turned into an absolute psycho because of this loss. He's sick. It actually might be a dangerous thing for the rest of the Big Ten that Oregon lost that game.

Whether the loss made Oregon more dangerous over the rest of the season is a future, testable team-performance claim.
