Teams will still give Kevin Durant a max contract despite his Achilles injury
Teams are, I think it was Skip Bayless actually that was saying, are teams really going to want to pay for Kevin Durant? Let me stop you right now, Skip. Yeah, they're going to. Shut up, Knicks fans. You're still going to pay for Kevin Durant. He's still going to be awesome when he comes back.

View episodeThe Achilles injury should be renamed the 'Kobe Heel'
We need to rebrand the Achilles injury. We named it after a dude that lost a war like 5,000 years ago. And we're still calling it the Achilles. It should be the Kobe heel.
You can't ask a player like Kevin Durant to change his style of play to accommodate an injury
Saying that [Durant] should change his game to fit the injury that he's coming off of... It is bullshit. It's like you don't tell a guy to completely change what they're doing and become like Klay Thompson if you're Kevin Durant. Only catch and shoot. Don't try to create anything off the dribble. Like you don't tell a lion, okay, only chase down a wildebeest if it's making a left.
Bob Myers' tears at the Kevin Durant press conference were 'guilty man' tears
I'm going to say it was more because he [Bob Myers] fucked up somehow. Yeah, those are the tears.

View profileThe Ravens' fourth-quarter problems are moving earlier
Historically, the fourth-quarter Ravens have not been a great team. That fourth-quarter Ravens has started to creep its way into the third-quarter Ravens. And I think eventually it's going to keep creeping earlier and earlier in the game. I don't think it's going to get better because the defense does not look good.
Baker Mayfield has a real revenge game against Cleveland
This is like a big Baker revenge spot too. This is not a made-up Baker—I have a perceived slight against me because some team didn't trade for me when I was on the market. This is Baker Mayfield against Stefanski, and they haven't talked since he left Cleveland.
The NFL should reduce the season to 16 games
I'm going to say it. I think that 17 games is too much. I like the scarcity. I like if you brought it back to 16, because the NFL's also been playing this game for a long time where they have to find safer-looking ways to do a dangerous activity.
