Sam Bankman-Fried is the latest Bernie Madoff

My hot seat is crypto in general. Sam Bankman-Fried from FTX is the latest Bernie Madoff right now. It's been in the news. He had I think about $40 billion and now he has $0 because his entire platform went bankrupt.

SBF was later convicted of multiple counts of fraud and conspiracy, confirming the comparison to high-profile financial scammers like Madoff.

Taylor Heineke has officially ended Carson Wentz's time as the Commanders' starter

I'll tell you who's not back. Carson Wentz because this is Taylor Heineke's team right now. He's done.

Heineke remained the starter for most of the season until Wentz returned briefly at the end, but Wentz was indeed released after the season.

Losing the undefeated streak was the perfect outcome for the Eagles' season

I actually think that was the perfect way for the Eagles to get their first loss. Because you don't want to lose, but... they had a game that they basically had everything go wrong for them and still almost had a chance to win it at the end. Now you can just focus on cleaning up the things, the mistakes you made.

The Eagles finished 14-3 and made the Super Bowl, so the loss didn't derail their season and may have helped them refocus.

The Eagles are in big trouble defensively if Jordan Davis stays out

If Jordan Davis is out for the year, I'd be like, the Eagles are in big trouble because they can't, their defensive line has no bulk and they can't stop anyone.

Davis returned in Week 13. The Eagles' run defense struggled without him but improved upon his return and they signed veterans like Linval Joseph to address the bulk issue.

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.
