Saquon Barkley's 'kill mindset' quote will be used against him as soon as he has a bad game
My cool throne is the Giants fantasy people that are gonna draft Saquon Barkley. He said, it's kill mindset now. It's like, fuck everybody. I'm sure that won't be like a quote that gets turned around when it's like that quote and then him going like, 14 rushes for 60 yards.
Desmond Ridder 'is him' and is already NFL ready
My hot seat is Marcus Mariota... I watched the Jets Falcons game last night. I think Desmond Ridder is that guy. I think he is him... I think I'm ready to say based off watching him one time in the preseason that this is gonna be a guy that I will believe in for the next four years.
The Falcons do not have their quarterback of the future on their current roster
I think the Falcons don't have their quarterback of the future on the roster right now.
Geno Smith should be a first-half specialist and Drew Lock should be the closer
Geno Smith, I think plays pretty well based on recent experiences in like the first half. And then Drew Lock is good in garbage time. So I think they should put Geno Smith in, in the first half as the first half specialist. Drew Lock comes in as the closer.
Stephen A. Smith would win the Presidency if he ran
Stephen A. Smith said that he would run for president... I'll tell you this right now. Stephen A. Smith, you would win. Yes, you would win. Who would debate against Stephen A. Smith? He would literally go to Texas and mock the Cowboys and be like, I don't give a fuck about your votes and still win.
I could kick Dan Campbell's and Mike Vrabel's asses in a fight
[Do you think you could kick Dan Campbell's ass?] Yes. And Mike Vrabel also, I'd throw Mike Vrabel in there at the same time... I just can tell you, if you pull 10 wrestlers, they're gonna tell you, take the best wrestler over the best boxer. So it's debatable, but us wrestlers stick together.
The best wrestler in the world would defeat the best boxer in the world in a fight
I had a debate years ago... would you take the best wrestler in the world over the best boxer in the world? And obviously the table was unanimously for the best boxer. And I can just tell you, if you pull 10 wrestlers, they're gonna tell you, take the best wrestler over the best boxer. Us wrestlers stick together.
Buffalo will never build an indoor stadium
[Do you think that Buffalo would ever get an indoor stadium or would you want a dome?] No. Ever. This is Buffalo, right? And this is what part of what makes us unique.
No quarterback who wears a visor has ever won a Super Bowl
The only concern I have about Josh Allen is every year, it seems like he put, he keeps the visor on later and later and no quarterback that's ever worn a visor has won a Super Bowl.
Josh Allen is capable of throwing a Hail Mary 110 yards
Do you have a number in your mind for a Hail Mary? Probably like 110. I think he told me he can throw it 110 [yards]. What's crazy is he isn't even really that loose and he'll just unleash one down the field... he's got a cannon.

Our second one is going to be chili. Chili's one of those things where the flavors get stronger the second day. I think it's a very strong pick.

Cold pasta has no carbs or calories
Here's a, here's a little fun fact for everyone as a nutritionist, pasta cold pasta has no carbs. So that's just a fact for everyone out there. No carbs, no calories, cold pasta. You can, whenever you eat cold pasta, the next day you could just eat so much of it.
Pie is a superior breakfast leftover to cake because it's essentially a pastry
The reason why I thought pie is because cake for breakfast is a little heavy. Whereas like an apple pie or blueberry pie, that almost feels like a breakfast food. It's not that dissimilar from a croissant or some sort of pastry or Danish.
Leftover steak makes for a top-tier sandwich when combined with mustard
We're gonna go with steak. Now hear me out. Making steak sandwiches the next day with mustard. There's people out there who know what I'm talking about. It's not a traditional one, but if you cut it up and warm it up in a pan, it's not that bad.
A half-drank blue Gatorade in the fridge is the perfect hangover leftover
Blue Gatorade in the fridge that you didn't finish next. Really good one. You wake up, you're thirsty as hell. You might be hungover and you see that partially [drunk]... sometimes that's the perfect amount of Gatorade to drink.
Mules are better workers than horses or donkeys
Mules are sterile and they're actually better workers than horses or donkeys. They're way better than horses. [How do they get born?] It takes one horse and one donkey. There's also zorses, that's a horse and a zebra.
Scott Frost's claim about Nebraska's offensive line puking 15-20 times per practice feels like a lie
Scott Frost announced that his team is puking. His offensive line is puking 15 to 20 times per practice. That doesn't feel like it's... I don't know. When it was announced, everyone on Twitter was just like, that feels like a lie.
Scott Frost should have been fired a couple of years ago
Scott Frost also is at a point now where like he should have probably been fired a couple years ago. And so he's like, what do I care? Let's just puke.
Al Michaels does not have a 'Thursday night voice'
I don't think he brings too much gravitas to Thursday night. Well, he doesn't have a Thursday night voice, especially... He's got a Sunday night or a Monday night voice. He does not have a Thursday night voice. There are certain people that have Thursday night voices out there. Al Michaels, no. I do not want to hear him on a week... I don't want to have to go to work for a full another day before the weekend when I hear Al Michaels' voice.
The Masked Singer started the rumor that Tom Brady was a contestant during his training camp absence
I've gone like overly woke on this now. And I think that it's a rumor that was started by the Masked Singer because people are definitely gonna be tuning in trying to figure out is that Tom Brady. It's the one show that you can basically get all the way through the episode being like maybe it is Tom Brady.

I actually think Jameis [Winston] is gonna love Michael Thomas. Yeah, because he is a big dude that kind of fits right in between linebackers that he can hit. It's Jameis' specialty.
Josh Rosen is putting up terrible stats on purpose as a bit
Josh Rosen... is on the Browns and in classic Josh Rosen fashion, he got in for, I think an entire half. He went seven for 20, for 88 yards. No TDs, no interceptions. I, he has to be doing this on purpose at this point. His stat lines are just so, so predictably exactly what they are every single time... It's a good bit. It really is.

John Salley would still be playing in the NBA if he wasn't vegan
[John Salley] will probably still be playing in the NBA if he wasn't vegan. This is my counter. The name is liver king because liver is king. If you wanna be an alpha organism kicking ass in life, do what other alpha organisms do.
I do not take steroids; I only take 'PEDs' which stands for 'Prioritize, Execute, and Dominate'

Sunning your balls can improve androgens and is 'pretty primal'
If you sun your balls, there is a study. It's an older study, I think it's from like the fifties or sixties that shows that it does improve androgens, not necessarily testosterone... I think it's pretty fucking primal. Right? I mean, we, we didn't evolve essentially with clothes... I think it's pretty primal to do.
Calling another man 'buddy' or 'pal' is the ultimate subtle emasculation
Calling someone buddy or pal... buddying them. Total emasculation. And you just drop the pal or the buddy's like, okay buddy. That's just the worst. And it's very like, you can't really get mad because it is subtle enough. But dropping a buddy or a pal like Steven Cheah does it. And it drives me absolutely insane.
Helping a man off a boat is a major act of emasculation
Helping a man off a boat. Yes. Big time. If, if you're as a man taking another man's hand to step off the boat because you can't get to where that man is without him helping you. Brutal. That's super [emasculating] and it's, and it it's like, it really only happens in boats.
Controlling the remote at someone else's home is the ultimate power move
Controlling the remote at someone else's home. That is a big time emasculation move. Never let anyone else touch your own remote. If I go to your house right now and I sit down on your couch and I take the remote and I'm just cruising, if you don't fight me, you're a bitch.
Telling a man 'you're mad' when he's trying to make a point is a top-tier emasculation move
There's nothing more irritating actually than like being told that you're mad about something that you're not. And then your whole little world around you is like, people like, look how mad you are. Look how mad you are when you're not actually mad... Therefore our last pick is telling someone that they're mad. Just be like, you can't control your emotions. You're mad.
The best seats in an NFL stadium are the first row of the top level on the 50-yard line

The NFL gave Deshaun Watson an 11-game suspension specifically so his return would be against the Texans

Any kid under 14 should run onto the field at baseball games because security won't tackle them
If you're under, let's say 14. I would say 14 is about the age where I don't think a security guard would tackle you. Why wouldn't you just run on the field? And then you go, you get slap on the wrist and they're like, they probably tell your parents like don't ever do that again.

Opening bottles with your teeth... It is crazy. It blows my mind. Glass bottles are not supposed like your teeth or your teeth... some people I have, I have a friend that would do it. Like, do you have a bottle? I have a bottle opener. And he's like, no, let me do it with my teeth... it's concerning.
Owning a snake as a pet is a definitive pre-crime sign
Our first pick, we're gonna go with owning a snake as a pet. Anyone who owns snakes, fucking pre-crime city.

Being a youth women's gymnastics coach without a daughter on the team should be an automatic jail sentence

It's like I'm gonna buy my favorite porn star, like a vacuum cleaner for her house. Oh. And hopefully she'll fuck me.
Adult autograph seekers who bring suitcases and use 'orphans' to get items signed are criminals
Our last pick is adult autograph seekers.

We're gonna go with eating fish for lunch in the office. Should be a crime. Yeah. Should be, yeah. Should be a real, it should be a real crime. Yes. It's definitely pre-crime yes. Like you just have no standards or like, you know, empathy for any of your coworkers or peers.
Joe Burrow has an uncoachable 'it' factor that makes players want to go to war with him
We all knew what was in Joe Burrow from the person that he was, the leader that he was, and the player that he was. He just has that, that 'it' that you can't coach when it comes to football in general... he's that type of dude where you wanna go to war with him any day, any week. The person is the reason why you see the player.
