The Yankees should extend both Aaron Boone and Brian Cashman

I think they should extend Aaron Boone. Yeah. I think he's the steady hand and Cashman. I think Aaron Boone is a steady hand that the Yankees need to control their franchise. ... We official vote of confidence as they should extend both of them. Yes.

Cashman remains employed and Boone's contract was eventually extended through 2024 (with a 2025 option), so technically PFT's mock-wish came true.

The Steelers are my surprise team for the 2023 season

Kenny Pickett. Yes. Two touchdown drives. Diced them up. Diced him up. ... Steelers Look ready to go. Steelers are my surprise team. Yeah. No one's talking about the Steelers. We are.

The Steelers finished 10-7 and made the playoffs as a Wild Card, but they weren't a major 'surprise' contender in the AFC.

Trey Lance sucks and doesn't know how to play football

Trey Lance sucks. Yeah. Well that's, doesn't even know how to play football. ... The one clip of him throwing, just standing there with no pressure while guys were open, feeling pressure that wasn't there, and then mis-throwing it. That was a bad look.

Lance was traded to the Cowboys and remained a backup; his career trajectory currently supports the 'not an NFL-caliber starter' view.

Bijan Robinson is already the best running back of all time

My other one is Bijan Robinson is the best running back of all time. That was a great, great performance by him. That's, he's a clip monster. Everyone's like, look at this. It's just Bijan finding [room].

Bijan had a very good rookie season, but is obviously not the literal greatest running back of all time.

If Messi wins the 2026 World Cup, he is the GOAT of all sports GOATs

So if he wins the World Cup again, I'm prepared to say he might be the GOAT GOAT. Like the GOAT of GOATs. Right now I think Michael Jordan and Muhammad Ali are both tied for the GOAT GOAT... But Messi could get on the Mount Rushmore of GOAT GOATs.

Messi has reached the 2026 final in this transcript. A win would make him a back-to-back champion, making the GOAT claim very strong.

France will beat England in the World Cup third-place game, giving England the all-time record for third-place game losses.

England has, they've got the possibility to set the all time record for most third place game losses. Right now they're tied with Brazil with two. If they lose another one, then that would mean that they have that record on their own. And if you look back through history or at least recent history, three of the last five champions of the World Cup go on to win the third place game the next year. So that would mean that France would win this third place game and England would etch their names into history.

Pending the outcome of the 2026 World Cup 3rd-place game between France and England.

Warde Manuel is about to be fired as the Michigan Athletic Director

I think Warde Manuel's about to get fired... They've leaked a few things to the media regarding the investigation and in the things that they've leaked, they've squarely pointed their finger at Warde Manuel and been like Warde knew the entire time.

The outcome of Manuel's tenure and the NCAA investigation at Michigan remains to be seen.
