If I ask you if something's good or bad and you say it's complicated, that means it sucks. Fine, fair enough.
Robert Griffin III driving a 1992 Volkswagen to practice is a major try-hard move
Robert Griffin III rolled up to practice in a 1992 Volkswagen today... I thought it would be someone who actually still owned an old car, not someone that went out and borrowed a friend's old car just so that people would write stories about him driving to practice. It makes Robert Griffin seem like a real try-hard.
Nick Saban is a spiteful, vindictive, irrational baby of a man
So you're saying that Nick Saban is a spiteful, vindictive, irrational baby of a man? You think? No doy. I like that this guy actually thought like he was going to just tell Nick Saban he's quitting. And Nick would be like, you know what? Best of luck to you, man.
You don't give Nick Saban a two-week notice; you sneak out in the middle of the night and tweet that you're leaving
You don't put in a two weeks notice at Alabama. That's a move where you slip the janitor 50 bucks to get in in the middle of the night and you just take all your shit out and then you tweet the fact that you're leaving to Nick Saban. That's how you leave.

Fat is coming back as a trend and Brooklyn will lead the way
Fat is coming back. And good news for you. The first place that it's going to come back, place at the forefront of all these trends, is Brooklyn. You know, like back in the day, if you were fat, it meant that you were well fed and that you could take care of yourself.
LeBron James is a dickhead and I would never want him on my rugby team
Probably the last person I would want is LeBron... strictly because he's a dickhead. He's a dickhead. If I had to go with anyone, it would probably be AP, Adrian Peterson. He would be good at that.

No one on the West Coast is lacrosse. Play lacrosse, that's about it... They're never going to.
Russell Wilson is almost too short to be on a sports poster
We were a little bit worried about Russell because, you know, people said you should do a poster. I thought, you know, he might be too short. You know, he's kind of a little short to be on a poster.

If you do anything in life, be completely average at it to avoid public scrutiny

Being asked to be a Maid of Honor is a rough favor to fulfill
Will you be my maid of honor? Like that's such a – that is a rough ask. If you're a maid of honor, you've got to plan out the entire bachelor party. You've got to plan out the wedding shower. You've got to plan out... basic bitch t-shirts.
Commando week is bad because of the drips
Commando week was, whoa, that was bad, dude. Yeah, because there's nothing to stop the drips. And it's the drip sweat that comes off your butt, butthole, taint area that really causes the stink. The underwear keeps that real tight.
It is impossible to satirize Donald Trump because he is already too over the top
I really think that Trump is not – you don't have the ability to satire Trump. Like he says shit that's way over the top of what I would even think of and it's real.
If you claim you were hacked after a scandal, you must lean into it with more fake hacks
If you are going to go the hacked route, you have to go farther down the rabbit hole of hacked.

Draymond Green should sue Snapchat for entrapment
If I'm Draymond, I would consider suing Snapchat. They made an app that makes it really easy to send dick pics that disappear afterwards. So it's like entrapment.

The free agent signing who's maybe coming from a Super Bowl team and he's bringing a winning culture... [is] probably not going to be anywhere near as good as he was with the Super Bowl team because he was surrounded by really good players. And now he's on your shitty team, surrounded by trash.
Geno's Steaks in Philadelphia is trash
Number one, Pat's. Number two, South Philly. Number three, Geno's. Geno's is trash. I hate Geno's.
All roads in the NBA super team era lead back to LeBron James
All roads lead to LeBron James with this super team friends and family shit. Just know that. There's always a way back to LeBron James. He started this shit and now it's corroding and polluting the NBA.
NBA players are garbage for dunking on kids at summer camps for social media
Why do these players keep shitting all over these little guys that play $2,500 to go up to their camp and they dunk on them, they humiliate them, and then they post it all over Snapchat? All of them. It's out of control.
Tony Montana is a top-tier bad guy, even though I've never seen 'Scarface'

God from the Old Testament is a top-tier bad guy
So I'll segue right from there into my number three which is God, God from the Old Testament. Kind of a bad guy. Threw a lot of stuff at people. People forget that. That God was kind of a hard ass.

Number four on my Mount Rushmore of bad guys. Tom Brady. [Belichick] never got suspended. True. He only got fined.
NBA players should have the right to choose their super teams
I do believe that grownups should have the right to decide where they work. Kevin Durant was in Oklahoma City for almost 10 years. And if he wants to go play somewhere else, it doesn't really feel good for me as some random person sitting at home and saying, you know where I think you should live your life and work every day. I'm not a big fan of like the franchise tag.
Aroldis Chapman should have issued a stronger public apology after his domestic violence incident
I would have liked him to make a stronger statement of apology publicly because I think that not only is that important in sort of the evolution of him and how fans might want to feel about him, it's important for kids who put those little Cubs uniforms and caps on every day and come to the park. ... I would have liked to have seen more of that from him personally.
LeBron James' subtweets didn't matter during the season because the Cavaliers ultimately won the championship
I'm saying that I have so many more important things in my day to care about than like what for. ... Here's how we know [it's not a big deal]. They fucking won the NBA title. Like, that's how you know it wasn't a big deal. ... It clearly didn't matter.

I think LeBron's playing a leverage game. And wouldn't you? Dude, I mean, that letter in Comic Sans, you can forgive, babe, but you don't forget.
Women in sports media should know 'No' is a complete sentence

Pat Riley is building his next super team by 'hoodwinking' Dion Waiters
Pat Riley, he just took a step back down towards Earth on the stairway to heaven because this is how you build your empire back up. You hoodwink Dion Waiters a little bit. And the next thing you know, you got your next super team in place.
The White Sox are an embarrassing organization run like a mom-and-pop shop
I think White Sox fans have a level of embarrassment because I think if your organization is having uniform issues and your star pitcher is cutting up uniforms because he doesn't want to wear them, that's embarrassing. It's called Jerry Reinsdorf runs organizations like a mom-and-pop shop, and incompetent people get pay raises and promotions, and no one ever gets fired.
Chris Sale is a psycho, partly because his best friend is 13 years old
And also Chris Sale is kind of a psycho. Yeah. He's a little bit of a psycho. I think the biggest story out of all this is Chris Sale is kind of a psycho because it's not just the jerseys. It's that he also has a best friend that's 13 [Drake LaRoche].
Players should be nicknamed 'Big Country' to improve their public image
Just give yourself the nickname Big Country because everybody loves Big Country no matter what sport you're in. Just be like, 'Hey, that's just Big Country, you know, having some fun before the game, y'all.' And people will be like, 'All right, that's good.'
The 'Mystery Team' in MLB trades is always just a fabrication by agents
The mystery team... could be anybody. It's a made-up team from the mouth of your agent just trying to work you up. The mystery team never gets their guy.

A big bowl of Pho is the best hangover food
My fourth is going to be my favorite hangover food, and that's a big bowl of Pho, the Vietnamese soup. Really good for a hangover, yeah. If you get all the weird shit in there too, like the intestine stuff.

I can't believe Joe West is still an active MLB umpire
I can't believe that [Joe West] is still an umpire. You know, I know at some point you retire, everybody retires. I'm still amazed that he can still see the ball... because your legs go and then your eyes go.
