Coronavirus is an overrated, fraud of a disease

It's a bitch little disease... I agree. We called it out as being a fraud being overrated last week. I'm not I'm not changing that up... I'm not convinced about this Corona thing. I'll take coronavirus to the face right now.

Coronavirus was not a fraud and caused a global pandemic that killed millions and halted sports for months. This is perhaps one of the most famously incorrect takes in show history.

ABC/Disney/ESPN are trying to trade for Al Michaels to pair him with Peyton Manning

ABC Disney... they're trying to get Al Michaels. NBC doesn't want to give him up but ESPN wants Al Michaels, maybe team up with Sheriff Peyton Manning, put them in the booth together and make TV magic happen.

The trade never happened; Al Michaels eventually left NBC for Amazon in 2022, and Peyton Manning chose the 'Manningcast' format over the traditional booth.

Mike Tirico is an embarrassment of riches waiting in the wings for NBC

NBC has an embarrassment of riches with Mike Tirico waiting in the wings... so he can eventually take over the Sunday night job.

Correct. Tirico eventually did take over Sunday Night Football from Al Michaels in 2022.

Mr. Portnoy is more valuable in a media trade than Dickie V

I would say. Mr. Portnoy is more valuable than Dickie V at this point... Mr. Portnoy still has like a decade left, at least.

Inherently subjective value comparison between a podcast recurring guest and a Hall of Fame broadcaster.

The Knicks will probably win the series in five games or even sweep the Cavs

I still think that the, the Knicks are probably gonna win in five. They could even pull off the sweep. I guess the only real question we have for you, 'cause we already, we declared that the New York Knicks have won the series after game one. Correct.

The series is currently ongoing with the Knicks leading 2-0.

The NBA should rebrand the 'granny shot' as the 'pimp grip' to encourage players to use it

Nobody, no player in the NBA wants to shoot a free throw granny style. But if it's pimp grip, that sounds pretty fucking cool. Listen, if it goes in, it doesn't matter. Like if he and he would, he actually probably get some endorsements from it.

This is a comedic suggestion and not a verifiable fact claim.

I want the Thunder to win so we can love Victor Wembanyama longer before the inevitable hate cycle starts

I know who I want to win. I want the Thunder to win this series. And the reason why I want the thunder to win this series is because I think if the thunder win, we get to restart the clock on how much longer we get to love Weby before we hate 'em. If the Spurs win this series and then they win their first championship and Weby dominates, we're gonna eventually hate Weby.

The outcome of the series is pending, and the 'hate cycle' is a subjective sociological prediction.
