And I am picking the Chicago Bears and Caleb Williams to win the NFC and to be a rookie quarterback representative in the Super Bowl. Yeah, I mean, that's the obvious one. Now, I am curious, if Jaden Daniels were to make the Super Bowl, that take becomes basically half right. Because most of the people's objection was a rookie quarterback's never made the Super Bowl.
And it would have been like, if you say, hey, an asteroid's going to hit Earth in...

Peru in 2028 and an asteroid hits Argentina in 2028 you weren't as wrong as the people who were like no way it's not coming you were definitely more right and so Jaden Daniels season kind of indicates the opinion a bit but obviously didn't go that way there's a whole another sliding doors thing of Tyreek Stevenson doesn't taunt the fans and the Bears get to five and two and Jaden loses that game what we're talking about but no that was a bad take the thing about

sports predictions is their predictions. And the, you know, as, as try as I might can't flawlessly tell the future. Yeah. That would have been probably, I don't know if that would have been the number one draft pick for the wrongest take I've had, but it's up there.

Yeah, obviously.
Yeah, obviously.
Oh, if it was just one take, then it wouldn't have been Herculean. I thought we needed a long list. We do have this take also, just for the record on that. I don't believe in the Eagles. I don't believe in their coach, and I'm starting not to believe in their quarterback. Yeah, I mean, two-thirds of that applies. I don't believe in the quarterback, and I don't believe in the coach.
