Take of the Day

Zac officially becomes the 'Schefter of Shenanigans' after predicting Puka Nacua's off-field 'heater' would lead to trouble exactly one month before the Rams star entered rehab.

Rams fans should be worried because Puka Nacua is focused on everything but football right now

My Hot Seat this week is gonna be Rams fans. ... Puka might be focused on everything but football right now. He's on an elite bachelor run. ... I just feel when you're on this kind of heater, I think it, it's gonna transcend and he, this is gonna bleed into the regular season football.

Will be judged by Nacua's performance in the 2026 season.

Ime Udoka is the best at laying pipe among NBA coaches

You look at the Celtics Ime Udoka lays pipe better than any of these motherfuckers. Feels like he could spoil shit and he goes down. Yeah. She knows that he's not the whole package though.

While meant as a joke about physical presence, Udoka was suspended months later for an affair with a staff member, making this take legendary in retrospect.

Legalized gambling will be available across the country in five years.

Football in Vegas, I'm saying, calling your shot five years, say five years, legalized gambling all across the country, it's going to be great.

The Supreme Court overturned the federal ban on sports betting (PASPA) in May 2018, and it spread to dozens of states within Big Cat's 5-year window.

Antonio Brown will never play a single game for the Raiders

Here's my take: [Antonio Brown] is not going to ever play a game as a Raider. I think they're either going to cut him. They're probably not going to be able to trade him anywhere.

Antonio Brown was released by the Raiders on September 7, 2019, one day after this episode aired, without ever playing in a regular-season game.

The Chiefs trading up for Patrick Mahomes was the worst pick in the draft

The worst pick, I think, in the draft was Mahomes at 10 and the Chiefs trading up 17 picks to get him? Do you think they did that because they're like, yo, Ryan Pace is going to get a lot of heat? Now's our time to just go under the radar and just, who cares? No one's going to talk about us.

Patrick Mahomes became arguably the greatest quarterback of his generation, making this an all-time 'Freezing Cold Take'.

Salmonella is like the chicken pox; once you get it once, you can never get it again

No, because if you get salmonella, then you don't have to worry about getting it again so you can eat cookie dough and stuff. Nope, [you] don't have to worry about it.

Salmonella is a bacterial infection, and you can absolutely get it multiple times. It is not like chicken pox.

A prime Lavar Ball would kill Zion Williamson one-on-one

Prime Lavar Ball versus Zion Williamson one-on-one? Murder that boy. Too small. He too soft. He too slow. I was way too fast for that boy in my prime. I will kill him. I was just too strong and too fast.

Zion Williamson is a generational NBA athlete. Lavar averaged 2.2 points per game at Washington State. This is physically and statistically absurd.

I choked away the Masters with a four-shot lead

I'd characterize that as a choke. Damn. It was pretty bad. Yeah, I mean, I mean, come on, you got a four shot lead. All you gotta do. I was playing good and just choked it away.

Koepka did lead after 54 holes and failed to win, which fits the standard definition of a sports 'choke'.

My performance at the Masters was one of the most heroic things ever done

And I started talking about how heroic it was [playing the Masters injured], and people took great umbrage with that comment... You agree. [Koepka]: I couldn't have agreed anymore. Absolutely. I mean, it might have been one of the most heroic things ever done.

Hot TakeGolfScorchingSarcastic
This is a satirical take on his own performance; playing golf through an injury is not literally one of the most heroic acts in history.

Kyler Murray is going to have a great season this year.

Arizona Cardinals are a really interesting team this year. I just, their offense is gonna be awesome. I think their offense is gonna be great. I have a feeling that Kyler Murray's gonna have a great year. I think they're gonna be a lot of fun to watch.

The Cardinals' performance through 2024 will determine if Murray has a 'great' year.

I can successfully kick a 44-yard field goal with two months of training.

I think I can get to 44 yards if I give myself two months of training. Hank dunking, me kicking a 44 yard field goal. I'm gonna try to work the leg back up.

Outcome unknown/pending based on whether he attempts it.

Max will lose 20 pounds by Memorial Day

Memorial Day. Memorial Day, losing 20 pounds by Memorial Day Max. We've, we've done this before, but we're doing it for real this time... I just want it to be on the record.

Max's weight loss journeys are a recurring bit with varying degrees of success.
