Rose Lavelle will be the next USWNT superstar for the next eight years

Here's my hot take about Rose [Lavelle]. She's going to be the next superstar for the women's national team for the next, like, eight years... I'm saying that she's the next Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe.

Rose Lavelle remained a key starter and face of the USWNT through the 2023 World Cup and 2024 Olympics.

The NBA has the best offseason in sports

The NBA by far and away has the best offseason in terms of the free agency period and players moving around and teams completely changing the course of their next four to five years in a matter of moments.

While subjective, the NBA offseason is widely cited as the most transactional and dramatic in North American sports.

NBA superstars have so much control that they will likely demand trades again next year regardless of their current moves

I guess right now they are changing the course of the teams for the next four years. But then next year, a lot of these [NBA] players could just be like, I want to trade again because that's how much control they have over their destiny.

The subsequent years saw major trade demands from stars like James Harden, Ben Simmons, and Kevin Durant, validating the take.

LeBron James no longer controls the NBA like he used to

The immediate reaction that I had was LeBron James does not control this league like he used to.

The NBA entered a period of 'duos' rather than LeBron-centric superteams following this move.

Duke would have won the National Championship by 50 points if they had reached the final.

I think if Duke plays in the championship game, they win by 50. Easily. That was a wasted opportunity.

This is a hyperbolic counterfactual that cannot be proven, making it subjective.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.

Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.

This is a prediction for the next college basketball season.

College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable

It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.

Subjective opinion about the direction of college sports governance.
