It's a law of the universe that long-haired quarterbacks don't win Super Bowls

It's not even really long hair curse. It's just a demonstrable fact that long hair quarterbacks have never won a Superbowl... It's a law of the universe.

Historically, Super Bowl-winning QBs have almost exclusively had short hair. Kenny Stabler and Patrick Mahomes (who has curly/longer hair but not 'flowing') are the closest exceptions.

I really hope Big Ben shows up to training camp next year and claims he was joking about retiring

I really, really hope deep down. He just shows up to training camp next year. And he's like, what? Wait, what I was, I was just joking. Like I wasn't serious. I'm still [a] Steeler.

Ben Roethlisberger officially retired and did not return for the 2022 training camp.

Big Ben benefited more from existing pre-social media than any other quarterback

Nobody benefited more from existing pre-social media than Big Ben. Yes. That is absolutely true.

Subjective historical analysis of media eras.

Big Ben's 'retirement' is likely a ploy to see if the Steelers will beg him to come back

I think what Big Ben is doing now that I'm hearing all this is that I think he's essentially retiring. And then on the last day of work, he's going to walk out of the facility and he's going to do the thing, like... keep looking back like, oh, did you want me to do another? And hoping that someone says, 'Hey, Ben, we want you back.'

Roethlisberger did indeed retire after the 2021 season and never returned, despite any perceived longing for the team to ask him back.

LSU can win the national championship

With the way that Sam Leavitt played, you have to imagine they are definitely a team that can win the national championship.

The 2026 national champion has not been determined.

Traditions should stop when a team is getting blown out

I'm at the point now where I think the Badgers have to stop Jump Around until we start winning games. Because when you jump around and you're down 20, it's not fun. That's not a fun thing to do. You just need to have time and place with some of these things.

This is a subjective opinion about when a stadium tradition is appropriate.

Jameis Winston should be the first call for a quarterback replacement

Jameis right now should be the first call that anybody makes if they have a starter, a non-Tua starter, that they need. Actually, think about that, Big Cat—Jameis on the Falcons. That would be cool.

This is a subjective roster opinion; no single objective outcome can settle it.
