Kyle Shanahan is the first overall pick if NFL head coaches were redrafted

If every coach went into a big pool and you got to redraft coaches first overall pick. I think you take Kyle Shanahan... I'm not talking about in terms of the body of work... [but] right now.

This is subjective, but Shanahan remains widely considered a top-3 head coach in the NFL.

Brock Purdy would erase Tom Brady's legacy if he wins seven Super Bowls

I'm rooting for Brock in the Niners because Brock has a chance to totally erase Tom Brady's narrative and legacy if he wins a Super Bowl... if he wins seven. If he wins seven, he would have a better... he would be like totally erased Tom Brady's underdog story cause it's even bigger underdog story.

Purdy is a great story but winning seven Super Bowls is an nearly impossible bar to clear.

The Eagles will beat the 49ers by three touchdowns

I'm betting on the Eagles. The Eagles are gonna win this game by three touchdowns. Rock Purdy is gonna have a Joe Flacco rookie quarterback stat line. Stop the run, score early, make 'em throw, win.

The Eagles won 31-7, exactly a 24-point (three touchdown + field goal) margin. Hank was shockingly accurate.

The first team to stop an early fourth down conversion will win the 49ers-Eagles game

There's gonna be a fourth down in the first half, a fourth and one... If they don't get it, they're gonna lose the game. Because fourth downs in the second quarter count exactly the same as fourth downs in the fourth quarter. Just file that one away.

The Eagles famously converted a 4th-and-3 on their opening drive (the DeVonta Smith 'catch'). The 49ers didn't really have a 'failed' early 4th down that flipped the game so much as the Purdy injury did.

The Celtics are statistically a better team without Jaylen Brown

Jalen Brown has the second worst plus minus of any five time All Star over the past 10 years... Also the Celtics win more games without Jalen Brown than when he is playing... Last year with, with Jalen Brown, they won 66% of their games without, they won 80%... Their entire career with Jalen Brown. They are 263 and 1 31. That's 67% without Brown. There're 60 and 26, 70%.

The stats provided are fictional/hypothetical within the 2026 setting, but presented as fact to support a 'Ewing Theory' style take.

The Celtics are no longer eligible to be the NBA's team of the 2020s without Jaylen Brown

If the Celtics rebuild and they get back to like the NBA finals, let's say in like 2029, let's say they win another chip in 2029, that's a different team. Like the core is completely different without Jalen Brown. I don't know that you could consider the Celtics to ever even be eligible for team of the 2020s. Because it's gonna be two different iterations of the team.

Inherently subjective criteria for what constitutes a 'team of the decade'.

FIFA must change the rule so a red card does not result in a next-game suspension

I think it's just a, a terrible rule that if you get a red card from a game that you're also suspended for the next game. Yeah. You're already serving your punishment by, by sitting out the rest of that game and your team has to go down one player. Why do you have to sit out the next game?

This is a subjective opinion on sporting rules.
