The NBA purposefully tried to cuck the NFL during Super Bowl week

I saw somebody tweet something out like, I've scored the first four days of Super Bowl week as 10-8, 10-9, 10-8, 10-9 in favor of the NBA... This is our week, NBA. You sons of bitches, NBA. You did it again.

The NBA frequently dominates the news cycle with trades during Super Bowl week, specifically the Porzingis trade in 2019.

The Rams are impossible to bet against because it is a Wade Phillips 'Dad Game'

Wade Phillips dedicates one game a year to his late father, Bum Phillips. The Rams, or sorry, Wade Phillips' team's defenses, 7-0 in Bum Phillips' dedicated games. ... I don't know how you can bet against the Rams now. It's a dad game.

The Rams lost 13-3, failing to win the 'Dad Game'.

The NFL is running a 'long con' with referee John Perry to make the Patriots win

In Rams games, [John Perry is] 7-0. In Patriots Super Bowls, Patriots are 0-1. So is this also an NFL long con where they planted John Perry in 2007 to basically ref for a decade-plus and be really biased towards the Rams so that everyone would be like, oh, the Rams are going to win this because the NFL is corrupt. Oh, switcheroo, the Patriots won.

While meant sarcastically, the Patriots did indeed win the game, 'correcting' the referee trend Big Cat mentioned.

The Rams would win if both teams played a perfect game because they have more talent

I'm stuck with the same thought over and over. The Rams are the more talented team. But the Patriots, at the end of the day, it's still Brady and Belichick. If they both play perfect games, I think the Rams will win because they have more talent overall.

Subjective comparison of talent vs. result. The Patriots won a defensive battle, suggesting talent alone didn't decide it.

Conor McGregor likely fought on an existing injury and aggravated it during the fight

I think it was probably hurt and probably aggravated it during the fight. Now, would it shock me to know that Conor McGregor tore his ACL in training and then he just pretended that it wasn't hurt? No, that wouldn't surprise me either. But I think it was probably something wrong with it and when he went out there to try to fight on it immediately, just it told him, 'no, you can't do this.'

While confirmed by some medical reports later, the exact state of his knee pre-fight remains a point of debate.

England was the much better team, but Erling Haaland is a one-man squad for Norway

England was a much, much better team. But... that guy that didn't pass the ball to Erling Haaland, give me a break. Haaland, you are a one man team and that's okay.

Subjective opinion on Haaland's role.

The World Cup being expanded to 64 teams is just a monetization play by Gianni Infantino

He wanted to turn it into American sports and he wanted to use this World Cup to learn how we're able to monetize every single facet of our sports. And the fact that it was somebody whispered like, 'Hey, you know, the NCAA tournament they used to do 64, everybody loved that bracket.' He thought about that and he was like, 'that's a great idea. I think I will, I'll try to do that.'

The World Cup expansion is a fact; the motivation is subjective but widely believed to be financial.
