Redskins GM Scott McCloughan has been dead for a year and is a Weekend at Bernie's situation

I think [Scott McCloughan] has been dead for a year... and so it's Bruce Allen who's just pretending like Scott [is alive]. That's actually a great move. If you want to deflect blame to somebody else, have a dead guy in the closet.

McCloughan was not dead; he was fired less than a week later on March 9th.

If you can't motivate your sperm to swim, you can't lead an NFL team

I'd like to see them do the combine in the nude... make them jerk off into a cup, test their swimmers out. If you're a quarterback, if you can't motivate your sperm to swim, you can't lead a team.

Biologically and professionally irrelevant to quarterbacking success.

Mitch Trubisky screwed himself by measuring 6'2" because of Hue Jackson's arbitrary height cutoff

Hugh Jackson, his cutoff for quarterbacks, 6'2". So Mitch Trubisky kind of screwed himself. He should have slouched a little bit, hoping that he went at 6'1"... [Hue] just said, if the quarterback's not 6'2 or taller, I don't want him.

Hue Jackson actually preferred Trubisky but was overruled for Garrett. Trubisky was picked 2nd, proving the height didn't scare off everyone.

Patrick Mahomes' small hands are a reason not to pick him in the draft

I also saw that Mahomes had small hands, so be careful of that. Don't worry about the fact that he played in a Kliff Kingsbury offense, and it was an air raid... His hands, a little undersized. That's why you shouldn't pick them. I actually like him. I think he actually would be good for them.

Patrick Mahomes became arguably the greatest QB of his generation. Hand size proved to be entirely irrelevant.

Augusta National likely set up Mark Calcavecchia to get caught with a cell phone to prove they still have authority

My theory is that they talked to... a behind the scenes situation where they said, we getting a lot of shit. People are saying that we still don't have it, so we're gonna throw your ass out if you're okay with just saying that he had a cell phone. So I think it might be a setup.

While purely speculative, Augusta is known for extreme measures to maintain its cell phone ban; however, there is no evidence this specific incident was a 'setup' for PR.

I can shoot a 110 at Augusta National

I actually don't think that what I said was that stupid. You said you could shoot 110. I think I could shoot 109. I could break 110. I'm not saying I would do it every time. I don't think so. I think I could do it.

The difficulty of Augusta is legendary. Most amateur golfers, including PFT based on his self-reported 87 on a par 70, would likely struggle to break 120 or 130 on a tournament-ready Augusta setup.

Everyone should be able to break 150 at Augusta National

It was more so the people that were like, dude, you can break 150. I think everybody, everyone here should be able to break 150 at Augusta.

150 is a very high score (over 8 strokes per hole). Most athletic people could likely manage this if they just advanced the ball, but greens might cause issues.
