The football gods cursed Mike McDaniel for not breaking the NFL single-game scoring record

Mike McDaniel chose not to go for the NFL record at the end of the game [against the Broncos in 2023]. Did not kick a field goal. I believe the football gods cursed him after that moment. The Dolphins went 23 and 25 after that.

While statistical correlation exists (the Dolphins struggled after that high point), 'football gods' are a subjective concept.

The Miami Hurricanes are officially back

The U, it's all about the U back. Miami Hurricanes are back. Instant classic in the desert. It was what a game.

Miami reached the national championship, lending weight to the claim, though 'back' is subjective.

The 12-team playoff was a success because it allowed Miami to reach the championship

Miami was very close not making these playoffs. So when we say oh, 12 is too much. Yeah, maybe some years 12 would be too much. But this year we needed it because Miami's in the national championship.

The success of a playoff format is a matter of opinion.

Mike McDaniel will land a top offensive coordinator job immediately with a team like the Lions, Eagles, or Commanders.

Mike McDaniel is going to get a job instantly and he might get an awesome job. And by that I mean, how would you like coaching the offense of the Detroit Lions? Oh. How would you like coaching the offense of the Philadelphia Eagles? How would you like coaching the offense of the Kansas City Chiefs? How about coaching the offense of the Baltimore Ravens? There are some—oh, and the Washington Commanders.

Big Cat was correct that McDaniel would get a top OC job immediately, but wrong about the specific teams. McDaniel did not go to the Lions, Eagles, or Commanders as specifically named. He was hired by the Chargers as OC. The prediction that he'd land an 'awesome job' quickly was accurate, but none of the five teams Big Cat listed were correct.

Nate Oats would not be a great fit at UNC

I don't think he'd be a great fit there. Would people be talking about Nate Oats as much for this job if he didn't wear those jackets? They feel like Carolina jackets. It feels like he's been accepting people into anticipating him being the next UNC coach for a while.

Oats did not take the UNC job; the outcome of whether he'd have been a 'great fit' is subjective.

James Wood will be a monster this season and hit 35 plus home runs

The only thing I have to look forward to this season is James Wood just being a fucking monster and getting 35 plus home runs. That's the only thing that I'm going to this season looking forward to as a Nats fan.

James Wood is a high-upside prospect, but 35+ home runs for a rookie/young player is a significant mark.

Tom Brady never processed 9/11 because he was such a psycho about football

He just had delayed onset grief. Anything that happened during his playing career, he never processed any of it outside of football. Tom Brady probably never processed 9/11. He was such a psycho, all he cared about was football. He probably found out about it like two years ago.

Hyperbolic satirical claim.
