Weights are physically heavier in 'shitty' gyms with no air conditioning

He trained in the shittiest gyms. And I think that those weights are, in fact, heavier in shitty gyms. If you go to a place that's 100 degrees inside, that's got cobwebs and dust and shit everywhere, you're going to get a better pump than if you go to a Gold's Gym in Manhattan Beach.

A pound is a pound, but the difficulty of the workout increases due to heat and environment, which is the spirit of the take.

My ping pong victory over PFT Commenter is like the Bulls finally beating the Pistons

It's like MJ [Michael Jordan] versus the Pistons, except in this situation, no one got to saw the Pistons beat the Bulls.

The Pistons did beat the Bulls for several years (the 'Jordan Rules' era) before Jordan finally broke through in 1991. It's a subjective sports analogy.

The internet has just become Rex Chapman's Twitter feed

The entire internet has just become Rex Chapman's Twitter feed. Yes. End it.

Subjective commentary on social media trends.

The NFL will never allow hot mics on players because coaches are too paranoid

Do you think the NFL is going to let players have a hot mic? It's not the XFL. Do you think Bill Belichick's going to let his team have a hot mic? The NFL is full of coaches that are the most paranoid people in the world. Do you think they're going to be willingly allowing all of their schemes and everything to be just said out loud? No way!

Coaches remain extremely guarded about on-field audio to prevent teams from stealing signals or cadences, which supports Big Cat's view.

Nate Oats would not be a great fit at UNC

I don't think he'd be a great fit there. Would people be talking about Nate Oats as much for this job if he didn't wear those jackets? They feel like Carolina jackets. It feels like he's been accepting people into anticipating him being the next UNC coach for a while.

Oats did not take the UNC job; the outcome of whether he'd have been a 'great fit' is subjective.

James Wood will be a monster this season and hit 35 plus home runs

The only thing I have to look forward to this season is James Wood just being a fucking monster and getting 35 plus home runs. That's the only thing that I'm going to this season looking forward to as a Nats fan.

James Wood is a high-upside prospect, but 35+ home runs for a rookie/young player is a significant mark.

Tom Brady never processed 9/11 because he was such a psycho about football

He just had delayed onset grief. Anything that happened during his playing career, he never processed any of it outside of football. Tom Brady probably never processed 9/11. He was such a psycho, all he cared about was football. He probably found out about it like two years ago.

Hyperbolic satirical claim.
