The Mets should have brought up Tim Tebow just to sell tickets

My prediction was that the Mets should bring him up because they weren't selling any tickets, and they should have brought him up several times to the big leagues because Tim Tebow puts asses in seats. That's just a fact. People would go out and watch Tim Tebow strike out three times before they would go out and watch the Mets win 30% of their games at home.

Tebow retired without ever making a Major League appearance, despite significant jersey sales in the minors.

The Eagles are the biggest losers of the Carson Wentz trade

The biggest losers being the Philadelphia Eagles, I would say. I would frame it in the context of the Eagles traded for him to draft him. Then they gave him a ton of money. Then they also gave him a ton of money and $33 million against the cap, and their franchise quarterback that they thought they had traded for and everything was hunky-dory is now gone.

The Eagles did indeed take a record-setting dead cap hit ($33.8M) to trade Wentz, and the draft capital they spent to get him in 2016 was massive.

Carson Wentz can find his old self with Frank Reich in Indianapolis

The reclamation of Carson Wentz, like Frank Reich was where he had his success earlier in his career. I do think that he can—I'm not throwing him out. I'm not saying that he can't find old Carson Wentz. And the best place for him to do that is the Indianapolis Colts.

Wentz was significantly better in 2021 (27 TDs, 7 INTs) than 2020, but he collapsed in the season finale vs the Jaguars and was traded away after only one year.

The Raiders are the biggest losers of the Wentz trade because they wouldn't part with Derek Carr

I'd say that the losers of this trade would be the Raiders. The Raiders lost this trade because the Colts tried to get Derek Carr first, and the Raiders were like, no, we're not going to part with Derek Carr. That's a loss for the Raiders right there.

Carr remained with the Raiders for two more seasons and led them to the playoffs in 2021 before his eventually rocky exit, so keeping him wasn't an immediate disaster.

LeBron James going to the Golden State Warriors would be a pathetic move

That's such bullshit by the way. Like if we got mad at Kevin Durant for going to Golden State, this would be pathetic. Pathetic.

This is a subjective assessment of a potential free agency move.

The USMNT match against Bosnia and Herzegovina is an absolute must-win

It's a definitely a must win... we are, I believe for the first time ever in the history of US soccer were favored in a knockout round game... if we lose against Bosnia and Herzegovina, that is, it's, it's a disaster.

The match has not yet occurred.

The USMNT will beat Bosnia and Herzegovina 3-0 or 3-1

I think we win. I think it might be like three to one, three to nothing.

The match has not yet been played as of the episode date.
