I 100% believe Deontay Wilder's excuse that his 45-pound mask killed his legs before the Tyson Fury fight.

Deontay Wilder his excuse for getting knocked out by Tyson Fury on Saturday night was his legs were dead because he wore a 45-pound mask into the ring. So pretty much exactly what we said on Monday... I 100 percent believe this. He's an idiot. Like he walked through the entire casino that he put on a 45 pound weighted vest before the biggest fight of his life. That's so stupid.

Whether the mask actually caused the loss is subjective and widely mocked by boxing analysts who credit Fury's dominance.

The mockery of NFL Combine hand size measurements has gone too far; it actually matters for quarterback performance.

I think the pendulum has swung so far into mocking combine season. I actually hate it now... It might not directly correlate, but would you not rather have a guy with a bigger hand than a smaller hand? There is absolutely a benefit to having a big hand if you're trying to grip a football in the rain or cold.

The value of hand size in the NFL remains a debated analytical topic, with most data suggesting it has little to no correlation with success or fumble rates.

Joe Burrow is using 'Galaxy Brain' reverse psychology on the Bengals by saying he would play for them.

I think that this is Galaxy brain [Joe] Burrow because I think that he is showing intentionally such poor vision making process that he says that he will play for the Bengals that the Bengals be like, 'oh fuck. We don't we don't want them.' Why would anyone play for us? That's not our kind.

Burrow did play for the Bengals and led them to a Super Bowl, proving he was not using reverse psychology to avoid them.

In the modern NFL, having a transcendental offense is better than having a very good defense.

I'd say that having a transcendental offense is probably better usually than having a very good defense because it's extremely hard to put together all the pieces on defense... just one of those easy things to just be like, 'Hey, we want to have an explosive offense.'

This reflects the general consensus in NFL strategy during this era.

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.
