The Saints' lawsuit against the NFL will lose momentum after Super Bowl Media Day

We've got attorneys from New Orleans suing the NFL. A class action lawsuit... That talk's going to die down after media day.

The lawsuit story did indeed fade as Super Bowl LIII took over the news cycle, though litigation continued for some time.

Saints fans should sue the NFL for 'loss of enjoyment of life' after the NFC Championship no-call

The Saints ticket holder lawsuit against Roger Goodell in the NFL. Mental anguish and emotional trauma. Loss of faith in the NFL. That's fantastic. Loss of enjoyment of life. I actually like that... When your team loses like that in the playoffs, just cross off the next three months of your life.

Several lawsuits were filed by Saints fans; none were successful in forcing a replay or gaining damages for 'loss of enjoyment of life.'

The NFL should host the Super Bowl in Miami, New Orleans, or Vegas every single year

You'll also get one or two people saying the Super Bowl should be in Miami or New Orleans every year. Which I agree. Every year. I actually agree with that. 100% agree.

The NFL continues to rotate cities, though Vegas, New Orleans, and Miami remain heavy in the rotation.

The Brandin Cooks revenge game is a 2.5 out of 10 in terms of interesting storylines

How about this for maybe, I'd say, a two and a half out of ten in terms of revenge games? The Brandin Cooks revenge game. Can't really get myself up for that one... Anyone who says Brandin Cooks revenge game, it's like, eh, really?

While Cooks had 120 yards in the Super Bowl, the game was a defensive slog (13-3) and the 'revenge' angle never really became a major talking point post-game.

The overturning of Folarin Balogun's suspension is the smallest piece of justice the United States has ever received from FIFA

The United States has never benefited from FIFA's corruption before, and it feels like we've been left out of that party. If this is our taste of the corruption, and all the corruption is just overturning a suspension that should never have been given in the first place... it's the smallest piece of justice that the United States could ever get from FIFA.

The USMNT did successfully have Balogun's suspension rescinded during the 2026 World Cup.

The sensor chips inside soccer balls are bullshit and not perfectly aligned with the cameras

I'm so deep into this chip in the ball thing, I've become convinced that it's all bullshit. The sensors, yes, they're there and yes, they pick up on stuff, but there's no chance that it is perfectly aligned with the 50 cameras that are running concurrently in the stadium on live TV at any given time.

This is a subjective claim about technical precision, though PFT expresses strong doubt.

Brandon Aiyuk is in a bad space mentally and will not be signing with the Washington Commanders.

The Washington Commanders have released Brandon [Aiyuk] today from the contract that he didn't sign with us and was never going to sign. Things got kind of weird over the weekend. So [Aiyuk] was saying like talking shit about Jayden's mom... I think that should probably put an end to the Brandon [Aiyuk] to the Commanders rumors. But I was never really on board for it, it's been weird for quite some time with Brandon. I hope he gets whatever help he needs. It doesn't seem like he's in a good space mentally. And it seems like even his best oldest friends have tried to help him and he just burns those bridges too.

Subjective opinion on Aiyuk's mental state and burned bridges, plus a prediction about not going to the Commanders.
