Restaurants should replace gumball machines with 'Tumball' machines filled with Tums

An idea that's just, instead of a gumball machine, just out in restaurants, have it just be filled with Tums... I would take one every single time, even if I didn't have heartburn, just like knowing you might get it later... Call it a Tumball machine.

This is a product idea/opinion that has not been widely implemented.

NBA players only hit every shot in New York City because the rims are too big

I don't know what it is about that court where every NBA player goes and plays in New York City. I think those rims might be too big because everyone hits every shot. Very soft rims.

The size of rims in professional or high-level streetball courts is standardized at 18 inches. There is no evidence NYC rims are larger, though they might be 'soft' (more forgiving).

Tony Gonzalez had the worst possible timing for a tight end because Rob Gronkowski came right after him

Tony Gonzalez... He has the ultimate unfortunate timing for a tight end because he was the greatest tight end of all time. And then [Gronk] came along and the tight end position is completely changed where tight ends are basically wide receivers now... doesn't it feel like if we, you know, in 2011, it was a no-brainer Tony Gonzalez's best tight end of all time to have someone come in right at the tail end of his career and be better than him? That's got to suck.

While subjective, many analysts do rank Gronkowski's peak over Gonzalez's career longevity. Gonzalez retired in 2013, exactly when Gronk's dominance was peaking.

I would rather have a Super Bowl ring than be in the Hall of Fame

Watching the Hall of Fame induction made me, for a brief moment, think that Cris Carter, when he said he'd rather be in the Hall of Fame than have a Super Bowl ring, might have been on to something, and then as soon as the season starts, I'm like, nah, Super Bowl.

Subjective preference regarding sporting honors.

Brock Purdy is the MVP and the 49ers are the NFL's best team

The 49ers are, I think, the best team in football. I think Brock Purdy right now is the league MVP.

The 49ers' eventual season result and MVP award are not yet known from the available context.

Dan Quinn should be fired after the fourth-down disaster

I think Dan Quinn has to go and he's a nice guy.

This is primarily a coaching judgment, although the proposed firing is also a future personnel outcome.

The Jets would win the NFC East

The Jets would be—I would take the Jets to win the NFC East. Without a doubt.

The 2026 NFL season has not yet reached its conclusion, so whether the Jets win the NFC East is unresolved.
