Hiring a guy who failed at broadcasting to be a General Manager never fails

The nice thing is you always, when you're an owner of a football team, you always want to find the guy that failed at broadcasting and hire him to be the GM. Yes, exactly. That never, ever fails. Matt Millen. Yes, exactly. That never, ever fails.

John Lynch actually became a highly successful GM for the 49ers, leading them to multiple Super Bowls, making the sarcastic prediction (that he would fail like Millen) literally incorrect.

The yellow first down line on TV is not an official line

People forget that the yellow line on the field isn't official. So people actually forgot that this weekend in the Ohio State-Michigan game. What? Great game by the refs forgot it as a matter of fact so they just said oh it looks like across the yellow line first down first down

This is a literal fact; the yellow line is a broadcast graphic and not visible on the field or used by officials.

The Green Bay Packers drafted a serial killer and he's the biggest bust in NFL history

People forget that the Green Bay Packers drafted a serial killer. In 1974, they drafted a legit serial killer. His name is Randy Woodfield... Would you say he's like the biggest bust in NFL draft history?

The Packers did draft Randy Woodfield in the 17th round of the 1974 draft. Calling a 17th-round pick who never played a 'bust' is comedic exaggeration.

Ryan Leaf and Johnny Manziel are bigger busts than a serial killer

I think Ryan Leaf and Johnny Manziel still are bigger [busts].

This is a subjective ranking of draft failures.
