The Rock is becoming unlikable because he is too manufactured and 'too likable'

At this point I regret to inform you that I think I'm out on the Rock... he seems like he's turned his entire life into a living breathing Upworthy headline... the Rock is still like probably one of the more likable people in the world... I saw this and I was like, that's too far. You've lost me The Rock. You've entered the weird online celebrity like John Legend, Chrissy Tegan era of I have to root a little bit against you now. You're too likable.

Public perception and 'likability' are subjective.

Using prevent defense only prevents you from winning

When you go to prevent defense, the only thing it does, it prevents yourself from winning. So Greg [Berhalter], if you're listening against the Dutch or the Netherlands or the Holland or whatever you want to call 'em, don't park the bus. Keep your foot on the gas. Be free, live free. Have the American spirit flowing through you.

The USMNT lost to the Netherlands 3-1 in the knockout stage, largely due to defensive lapses and an inability to maintain offensive pressure.

I guarantee a USMNT World Cup championship in 2026

This is mission accomplished. It's a win. Anything else on top of that is gravy. We won the World Cup today by advancing outta the group stage because it was never supposed to be us this year anyways. In 2026, that's when the boys spread their wings and become a butterfly. And that's, I'm guaranteeing personally a United States World Cup championship in 2026.

PFT Commenter predicted a United States World Cup championship in 2026. However, Spain won the 2026 FIFA World Cup, defeating Argentina in the final. The USMNT was eliminated in the Round of 16 after a 4-1 loss to Belgium.

The current top four teams should stay in the College Football Playoff regardless of conference championship outcomes

What I'm gonna say though is I think it should be the four that are in right now [Georgia, Michigan, TCU, USC]. I think it should be those four. You shouldn't get penalized for playing an extra game while the other people are sitting on their couch. I would love for it to be this four.

USC lost their conference championship and was replaced by Ohio State in the final rankings.

The Falcons are a real, flawed good team

I do think that the Falcons are real. Yeah. I think that they're a good team. They're a flawed good team.

This is a subjective assessment of the Falcons.

The Falcons may have the NFL's best skill-position group

I think that if the Falcons can do that, they have maybe the best set of skill position players in the NFL. If you're able to protect Penix, he's good enough to distribute it and then just let their awesome players do awesome shit.

This is a subjective ranking of NFL skill-position groups.

MLB's proposed check-swing replay would make everything a check swing

Yeah. Parallel with the plate. Yeah. That's what I thought the rule was. And apparently that's just not the rule anymore. If they ever bring this system to Major League Baseball, I get—everything's a check swing.

This is a prediction/opinion about a proposed rule and its practical effect, not a settled fact.
