In the playoffs, it is better to get blown out 6-0 than to lose 4-3 in overtime

Do you lend any credence to my theory that in the playoffs you'd rather get your ass kicked, like get smoked 6-0, than lose a 4-3 game in overtime because the close loss is so much more demoralizing because you think that you've got it, whereas with a 6-0 loss, you just say fuck it after you're down 4-0, and who really cares?

This is a psychological theory about sports momentum and cannot be objectively proven true or false.

Kevin Durant will come back for Game 7, save the Warriors, and win Finals MVP

I feel like this update is going to just be the update every single game. Kevin Durant's out for Game 4. Kevin Durant's out for Game 5. Until they get to Game 7 and he comes back and saves the Warriors and wins MVP.

Durant returned in Game 5, not Game 7, and suffered a season-ending Achilles injury; the Warriors lost the series in 6.

Kevin Durant is going to be out for the entire NBA Finals

I don't think that [Kevin Durant] is going to play. I think he's out for the whole series.

Durant did play 12 minutes in Game 5, so he wasn't technically out for the whole series, though he missed the vast majority of it.

Whether someone has a personality is entirely a matter of opinion.

The 2026 World Cup final was boring and sucked.

It was boring ass soccer. It sucked. It made me thankful that the World Cup's over, that football's back. Now we can get back into real football, which I'm very, very thankful for. But that was actually, I think that was the best way to end the World Cup, because I'm totally fine with no more soccer now.

Fanatics Fest is a cynical place designed only to take money from fans.

It also seems like the most cynical place ever. Like, you can go to an autograph festival or a fan festival and you know that the guys are being paid to be there. And they're still like, happy to see, interact with you, all that shit. It just seems like every single thing about being at that place is just designed to take money from the people that are there.

Bryson DeChambeau is being targeted by selective rule enforcement.

I think that Bryson definitely did it and it's definitely against the rules. And he got caught for it and they enforced it against him because he's a bad boy. He's had some run-ins before. I don't think the R&A or whatever, I don't think they're particularly happy with Bryson right now.
