I'm only joining an XFL team if I have a real chance to make the roster

The practice squad offer is apparently legit. Like I'm going to get a contract if I want to go down that road... in which case I'm only going down that road if they give me an opportunity to work my way onto a team. I'm not just going to be on practice squad a year.

PFT never actually signed a contract or played for an XFL team, as the 2020 season was cut short by COVID-19 and the bit eventually faded.

Kobe Bryant was the bridge that took the baton from Michael Jordan and passed it to LeBron James

Kobe Bryant was the type of guy who [was] bigger than his sport, who was the guy who took the baton from Michael Jordan and passed it to LeBron James, who was basically the guy in the NBA for a decade plus.

This is a subjective assessment of a player's historical role in the league, generally supported by most basketball historians.

Kobe Bryant's death is the most shocking athlete death since Dale Earnhardt

I can't think of another case where an athlete of like this stature has passed away suddenly, like maybe the closest thing I can even think of is Dale Earnhardt.

The level of 'shock' is a subjective experience, though widely shared by the sports community at the time.

The NBA should have canceled all games on the day Kobe Bryant died

I think [the NBA] should have canceled the games today because of what he meant everybody in the league. It seemed like Kobe had some sort of influence on every single team... it felt like one of those things where the the whole league was like sleepwalking.

The NBA did not cancel games that night, though they later postponed a Lakers/Clippers game. This remains a subjective opinion on how the league should handle tragedies.

JMU may not win again until the dog-poop bettor returns

JMU probably won't win another football game until that guy logs back on.

The prediction resolves when JMU's 2026 football season ends or the team wins another game, whichever comes first.

The Wizards are a one-through-eight seed team

I feel confident in my one through eight seed. Love that for the Wiz.

The Wizards' 2026-27 regular-season finish will determine whether this playoff-seeding prediction was accurate.

The Falcons can expose the 49ers defense

They might not actually be as good as we think they are on defense. I don't hate the Falcons at all in this game.

The 49ers' 2026 defensive quality and this Week 7 result can be evaluated against the skepticism expressed here.
