Major colleges shorten their tracks to fake faster 40-yard dash times during Pro Days

I think that the major programs out there are making a section of their practice fields where the hash marks are slightly closer together. So the place where they have them run the 40-yard dashes at their own pro days, it's actually slightly less than 40 yards, which would make them time out better.

While pro day times are notoriously faster than combine times due to hand-timing and 'home cooking,' there is no evidence colleges literally shorten the field.

Gonzaga vs. UCLA was one of the best tournament games in history

This is sports rule because we have the national championship tonight in the Final Four on Saturday and one of the best basketball games, tournament games, we've watched in the history of the tournament. I'm fine with maybe being a little hyperbolic with that statement, that game fucking ruled.

The game is widely cited by sports media as one of the greatest Final Four games ever due to the Jalen Suggs buzzer-beater and the quality of play.

The Houston Cougars were never on the same level as the elite teams in the 2021 NCAA Tournament.

Houston, nice run, gets to the Final Four, but kind of what we always thought in terms of the elite teams, that [Houston] wasn't on that level, and that's no shame to Houston.

Baylor defeated Houston 78-59 in the Final Four, supporting the claim that they were on a different level.

I am 'simp as fuck' for Miley Cyrus and her musical performance at the Final Four was incredible.

I am as simp as fuck for Miley Cyrus. If there's a scale of, like, one to infinity for my simp level for it... 90% of this is about the musical performance she put on and her song selection. Plus, when you come out there looking like Dog the Bounty Hunter mixed with Freddie Mercury mixed with Pamela Anderson from Barbed Wire, you're going to have my attention.

The quality of a musical performance is subjective.

The Falcons are a real, flawed good team

I do think that the Falcons are real. Yeah. I think that they're a good team. They're a flawed good team.

This is a subjective assessment of the Falcons.

The Falcons may have the NFL's best skill-position group

I think that if the Falcons can do that, they have maybe the best set of skill position players in the NFL. If you're able to protect Penix, he's good enough to distribute it and then just let their awesome players do awesome shit.

This is a subjective ranking of NFL skill-position groups.

MLB's proposed check-swing replay would make everything a check swing

Yeah. Parallel with the plate. Yeah. That's what I thought the rule was. And apparently that's just not the rule anymore. If they ever bring this system to Major League Baseball, I get—everything's a check swing.

This is a prediction/opinion about a proposed rule and its practical effect, not a settled fact.
