The Montreal Canadiens aren't actually good, they just have a hot goalie

I think Montreal isn't good. They have an amazing goalie [Carey Price] who's hitting his stride at the right time... it's like they get goaltenders that get hot and then the magic of the Canadians jersey they end up winning games... the Canadiens will get into the probably final four and then just get shit pounded by Vegas or the Avalanche.

Partially correct. The Canadiens did reach the Final Four and then the Stanley Cup Finals, but they actually beat Vegas in the semi-finals before losing to Tampa Bay.

Bryson DeChambeau's head is an orphanage where all the problem children of the PGA Tour and the fans live rent-free

Everyone is in [Bryson's] head at this point. It's an orphanage. All the problem children of the PGA Tour and the fans are allowed to live now rent-free in [his head].

This is a subjective assessment of a player's mental state.

Golf rivalries and fans hating players are good for the game

Golf should be fun. Rivalries are fun. Having guys hate each other is fun. Being able to hate another golfer as a fan is fun. All of these things make watching golf more enjoyable, and grows the game. You cannot tell me otherwise.

The Brooks vs. Bryson rivalry significantly increased golf engagement in 2021, leading up to 'The Match'.

Kyrie Irving has the most desirable game of any NBA player

I think Kyrie Irving has the number one. If you could pick which game you could have, if you're any NBA player, you'd pick Kyrie Irving. Because his handles are incredible. His finishing at the rim... he's just so goddamn good.

This is a subjective opinion about playing style preference.

It is physically impossible to chug a beer out of the Buffalo Sabres sword

The mc of the event's, like, dude, these things you can't chug out of 'em. You have to drink it slow because you can't chug. They end up spilling. It's impossible to chug. I said, oh, all right. Well I wish you told me that beforehand mc guy.

While potentially difficult, 'impossible' is likely hyperbole to cover for a poor performance.

Connor McDavid has lost his superpower due to injury

McDavid's hurt. And it just sucks... It's like he lost his superpower. So he skates like no one I've ever seen before... And now he doesn't have that. He still has the straightaway speed, I've noticed... but the little cutbacks where he is beating D out of the corner... He doesn't have it.

The impact of the injury on his playstyle is visible to scouts and analysts.

The NBA product has never been worse

The product's never been worse. The NBA and I don't watch it. So you can say, how do you know the product? It's, it's terrible. And if you're not somebody, I've asked you guys... lead off your show with hockey when football season's not going. But no, you guys stick to basketball and it's horrible.

Evaluating a league's 'product' quality is entirely subjective.
