John Gruden is secretly advising the Chiefs and is effectively on their coaching staff

John Gruden was at Chiefs practice today... he was wearing a Chiefs uniform and he was advising Chiefs coaches. Whoa. So I think John Gruden might be secretly on the Chiefs' coaching staff now. He's like Mid-hat right now with the Chiefs.

Gruden did spend time as a 'consultant' at training camp, though never officially joined the staff due to his ongoing litigation with the NFL.

The Bengals at 13 to 1 are the best value on the Super Bowl odds board

Super Bowl odds. Bengals 13 to one. That's what jumps out. Ooh, I like it. That's what jumps out.

The Bengals finished 4-13 and missed the playoffs in the 2024 season, making this a losing value bet.

The Chargers' new training facility is worth at least five wins per season

Chargers training camp was awesome today... I think that building is worth five wins at least just on building alone for the Chargers.

While a facility helps, attributing 5 specific wins to it is an untestable hyperbolic claim.

Noah Lyles' 100m gold medal win officially puts him on the Mount Rushmore of track and field

Noah Lyles... won the 100 meters... I'm envisioning myself returning home as a gold medalist and that puts me on Mount Rushmore.

The 'Mount Rushmore' of an entire sport is subjective.

Conor McGregor likely fought on an existing injury and aggravated it during the fight

I think it was probably hurt and probably aggravated it during the fight. Now, would it shock me to know that Conor McGregor tore his ACL in training and then he just pretended that it wasn't hurt? No, that wouldn't surprise me either. But I think it was probably something wrong with it and when he went out there to try to fight on it immediately, just it told him, 'no, you can't do this.'

While confirmed by some medical reports later, the exact state of his knee pre-fight remains a point of debate.

England was the much better team, but Erling Haaland is a one-man squad for Norway

England was a much, much better team. But... that guy that didn't pass the ball to Erling Haaland, give me a break. Haaland, you are a one man team and that's okay.

Subjective opinion on Haaland's role.

The World Cup being expanded to 64 teams is just a monetization play by Gianni Infantino

He wanted to turn it into American sports and he wanted to use this World Cup to learn how we're able to monetize every single facet of our sports. And the fact that it was somebody whispered like, 'Hey, you know, the NCAA tournament they used to do 64, everybody loved that bracket.' He thought about that and he was like, 'that's a great idea. I think I will, I'll try to do that.'

The World Cup expansion is a fact; the motivation is subjective but widely believed to be financial.
