Mr. Portnoy is more valuable in a media trade than Dickie V

I would say. Mr. Portnoy is more valuable than Dickie V at this point... Mr. Portnoy still has like a decade left, at least.

Inherently subjective value comparison between a podcast recurring guest and a Hall of Fame broadcaster.

ABC/Disney/ESPN are trying to trade for Al Michaels to pair him with Peyton Manning

ABC Disney... they're trying to get Al Michaels. NBC doesn't want to give him up but ESPN wants Al Michaels, maybe team up with Sheriff Peyton Manning, put them in the booth together and make TV magic happen.

The trade never happened; Al Michaels eventually left NBC for Amazon in 2022, and Peyton Manning chose the 'Manningcast' format over the traditional booth.

Mike Tirico is an embarrassment of riches waiting in the wings for NBC

NBC has an embarrassment of riches with Mike Tirico waiting in the wings... so he can eventually take over the Sunday night job.

Correct. Tirico eventually did take over Sunday Night Football from Al Michaels in 2022.

Eli Manning had dinner with the Chicago Bears to discuss joining the team

Eli Manning was having dinner with the Bears last night. Allegedly Leroy heard that from a source close to the situation... I truly believe that Eli Manning was having dinner with some represented from the Bears last night.

Eli Manning never signed with the Bears and remained retired as a Giant. No verified reports ever confirmed this meeting occurred.

I will never learn my lesson and will continue to believe in the Houston Cougars for the next four years

If you think this is going to deter me from believing in the Houston Cougars for the next four years, you are sadly mistaken. I will never learn my lesson when it comes to this team.

The Cougars have historically struggled to get over the hump in the tournament despite high seeds.

I'm glad I missed Peyton Manning's birthday because he has enough people sucking his dick

I'm glad I missed Peyton Manning's birthday by the way. Fuck, fuck that guy. He's got enough people to suck his dick and wish him a happy birthday. Awful announcing quote that. I hope I do it again next year.

Subjective opinion on a celebrity's social status.

Nate Oats would not be a great fit at UNC

I don't think he'd be a great fit there. Would people be talking about Nate Oats as much for this job if he didn't wear those jackets? They feel like Carolina jackets. It feels like he's been accepting people into anticipating him being the next UNC coach for a while.

Oats did not take the UNC job; the outcome of whether he'd have been a 'great fit' is subjective.
