Tim Tebow should be the manager of the New York Mets

There's one clear pathway out of this, and that's Tim Tebow. Why don't they make Tebow the manager? Because he can't hit a baseball. Right. He won't ever threaten to fight a reporter. Right.

Tebow never managed the Mets; he retired from professional baseball in 2021.

The NBA holding their awards show in late June is a stupid move

I don't want a fucking award show on a random Monday in June. Mentally, we do as fans [care about the postseason results]. I'm thinking, of course James Harden didn't win it because the Rockets flamed out again. It's so stupid that they do it this way. They should just do it right before the playoffs.

The NBA eventually moved away from the separate awards show format in 2021 due to low interest and the timing issues Big Cat mentioned.

The Houston Rockets are in hilarious denial about the James Harden and Chris Paul dysfunction

The Rockets stuff is so funny to me... Chris Paul also had a quote that was essentially the 'I'm not owned' [tweet]. He said, 'I never asked for a trade. I never demanded a trade. I'll be in Houston. I'm happy about that.' You guys thinking that me, Chris Paul, notorious tough person to play with, is not vibing with James Harden, also notorious tough person to play with—that's funny to me, guys. I'm laughing here. This is so funny.

Reports of dysfunction were widespread and Chris Paul was eventually traded to the Thunder later that summer (July 2019) in exchange for Russell Westbrook, confirming the partnership was over.

Doc Rivers appeared to be a better coach when Austin Rivers was on his team because coaching a bad player makes you look like a genius

Doc Rivers appeared to be a better coach when he had his son on the team because his son was such a shithead that if you could squeeze a little bit of blood out of Austin Rivers, then you looked like a fucking genius. [Big Cat: You should not have gotten rid of one of your worst players.]

This is a subjective theory on coaching perception in the NBA.

The 2026 World Cup final was boring and sucked.

It was boring ass soccer. It sucked. It made me thankful that the World Cup's over, that football's back. Now we can get back into real football, which I'm very, very thankful for. But that was actually, I think that was the best way to end the World Cup, because I'm totally fine with no more soccer now.

Fanatics Fest is a cynical place designed only to take money from fans.

It also seems like the most cynical place ever. Like, you can go to an autograph festival or a fan festival and you know that the guys are being paid to be there. And they're still like, happy to see, interact with you, all that shit. It just seems like every single thing about being at that place is just designed to take money from the people that are there.

Bryson DeChambeau is being targeted by selective rule enforcement.

I think that Bryson definitely did it and it's definitely against the rules. And he got caught for it and they enforced it against him because he's a bad boy. He's had some run-ins before. I don't think the R&A or whatever, I don't think they're particularly happy with Bryson right now.
