Babe Ruth would not even be a Double-A player in today's game

I saw a video, someone found a video of like 19-whatever the fuck he was born, he had a shitty swing. He looked slow and fat. If he was in today's day and age, he wouldn't even fucking be in AA. Who the fuck out of him put down field stands that I'm taking away his pinstripes. I'd probably strike him out.

Inherently subjective comparison of eras, though most experts agree the level of play has exponentially increased.

Jimmy Butler is the top-one player in the NBA

Jimmy Butler is a king, top one player in the NBA. He got fined due to attempting to escalate the situation and also for not snitching.

While Butler is elite, he has never been considered the literal #1 player in the NBA by any consensus or major award.

Kobe Bryant is not even a top five Laker anymore now that LeBron James is in Los Angeles

My sit-em is Kobe Bryant. He's not even a top five Laker anymore now that LeBron's there.

Kobe's ranking in Laker history is subjective, but almost all experts rank him in the top 3.

Duke could beat the Cleveland Cavaliers

Zion Williamson, R.J. Barrett, Alex O'Connell. It's the big three, and Paul Pierce told them they could beat the Cavs, and they could. Dukes, yeah.

While never tested, the consensus among experts is that even the worst NBA team would dominate any college team due to depth and age.

Eli Manning should just retire already

Fuck Eli Manning. How many times is Eli Manning going to sack himself when I put a little fucking cashola on the Giants in a Sunday night game? Fuck you, Eli Manning. Just retire, you fucking asshole.

Eli Manning played one more full season before being benched for Daniel Jones in 2019 and retiring.

I'm finally calling it: Kareem Hunt is my sleeper of the week

He's a rookie, but I'm finally going to pick him up on my waiver wire. I'm talking about Kareem Hunt. He's my sleeper of the week.

Kareem Hunt was already a superstar leading the league in rushing; calling him a 'sleeper' or a 'waiver wire' pick in Week 5 is literally incorrect.

Fantasy owners should be able to suspend their own players from real-life games

As a fantasy football owner, if I owned Odell Beckham, I think that it should be within my right to actually suspend him. From real games. If a high enough percentage of Odell Beckham Jr.'s fantasy football owners are mad at him for doing something, then let's say above 65%.

A satirical policy proposal that has zero chance of being implemented.
