The NFL's electronic first down measurement system is bad for the sport because it removes human anticipation
This is bad. And here's why. The chain and the stick is awesome. It gives you another play. It's a free play that you get... the anticipation. That's another stop of them running out... That's what we love about football is the weird shit. If we were starting football from scratch right now, there's no chance in hell there would be three old guys with sticks.

View episodeThe Celtics' Game 1 win over the Pacers was a 'wake-up call win,' which is the best kind of win
It was a wake up call win, which are the best types of wake up calls... they overcame, they were stumbling at the end of the fourth quarter, couple of really bad turnovers. Jalen Brown was not playing good in the fourth quarter. And then he came up clutch when it mattered most.
The Pacers' Game 1 loss to the Celtics is the most demoralizing loss possible
This seems like the most demoralizing loss possible. The Pacers had the game won and they gave it away. And when you give a game away like that in the last like 20 seconds, it feels like even if it goes into overtime, there's nothing good that's gonna happen to you.
I predict the Celtics will blow out the Pacers in Game 2
Blowout wake up call. Celtics. They've been woken up. This was the perfect ending. It was a wake up call win.

View profileBrian Windhorst is 'stupid as f***' for saying the Wizards couldn't trade Trae Young without attaching a number one pick
That is stupid as f*** of [Brian Windhorst] to say. That's just bullshit. That's just not true. Like, are you, the only way you could trade that contract if you had to, was if you had the first overall pick. No, it's not true for a lot of reasons.
Trae Young's contract with the Wizards is not the worst in the NBA, especially compared to Joel Embiid, Paul George, or Bradley Beal
For people to jump ahead and be like, oh, this is the worst contract in the NBA, I mean, oh, oh, I'm so, it is disgusting. To say like, it's the worst contract in the NBA is a little ridiculous. Just, I can think of two off the top of my head. Joel Embiid. Paul George. Bradley Beal with the Wizards.
Darryn Peterson will end up being the best player from the 2026 NBA draft class
I do think that there's a chance that Darryn Peterson might end up being the best player from this draft. ... It was very much a crapshoot and you don't know exactly what you're getting based on the one year at Kansas and there's a, a huge downside potential if you take him first overall. ... I would not be surprised if Darryn Peterson is like an absolute fucking legend in a few years. And you look back and you're like, how did that happen?
