The New York Giants draft hat looks like it has a barbed wire tattoo

The Giants one looks like it's got a barbed wire tattoo around the entire hat, which is very appropriate for the fan base.

Subjective roast of apparel design.

The AAF died exactly like the XFL did

This is what we warned you about. This is exactly what happened with the XFL. It just died. And we all got excited. And then it died.

The AAF did indeed collapse mid-season in 2019, much like the original 2001 XFL (though XFL finished one season).

Tom Dundon only bought the AAF to acquire its gambling technology

Albert Breer said that the speculation was that [Tom] Dundon bought the league just to get access to their gambling app that they were building. So $70 million for a gambling app seems like a shrewd investment.

While rumored, Dundon has denied this was the sole reason, but the tech was a key asset in the liquidation.

The Alliance of American Football failed because they didn't have an 'L' for League in their name

That was the biggest, actually, problem, is they didn't have an L. Yeah. And you know what? Two vowels at the start of your league? Yes. Listen, these are things that we could have solved.

The league did indeed fail, though the name was likely not the primary cause.

The Chiefs' window never closed

I don't think we ever actually closed the Chiefs' window. I think Mahomes was just in bed because he was injured, far away from the window.

The Chiefs' long-term contention status is ultimately subjective, though their dynasty remained active at the time of the episode.

Mahomes will be back to himself by season's end

By the end of this season, Mahomes is gonna be back to being Mahomes.

Whether Mahomes returned to his established level by the end of the 2026 NFL season had not yet been resolved.

The Oregon loss could turn Dan Lanning into a psychopath

I don't think that Dan Lanning has slept since that loss. I think Dan Lanning has turned into an absolute psycho because of this loss. He's sick. It actually might be a dangerous thing for the rest of the Big Ten that Oregon lost that game.

Whether the loss made Oregon more dangerous over the rest of the season is a future, testable team-performance claim.
