"You play your way into prime-time. ... If the Raiders have a better than we thought, unexpected season, that's what flexible scheduling is for down the stretch."
NFL VP of Broadcasting and Planning and Scheduling Mike North shares some insight on the schedule for the 2026-27 season 🏈
(via @richeisenshow)
Hold my beer.... MJ did this in 10 FEWER FULL SEASONS:
- More MVPs
- More Finals MVPs
- More Defensive Player of the Year Awards
- More All-Defense Selections
- More Scoring Titles
- More Steals Titles
- Better Per-Game Stats (Reg & Playoffs)
- More times leading the League in Advanced Metrics
- More times making both All-NBA and All-Defense in the same Season
- Better Game Winning/Tying Shot Clutch Metrics
- Faced better overall playoff competition (Teams with a higher avg Win Total, Net Rating, SRS)
- Best player on the greatest dynasty of the modern era
- Best combined reg season & payoff record (87-10)
- Undefeated (24-0) when having home court advantage
- 24-1 in the playoffs as a favorite
There is no other example in sports where the player with inferior Rings, MVPs, FMVPs, per-game stats is somehow considered the "GOAT". Not one.
Michael Jordan peaked higher, was more individually dominant, led more dominant teams, and on a per-game basis, was simply better during an era where the rules were designed to undermine Wing players.
Lebron James, while great, simply played longer and accumulated more total stats and accolades
Don't be bamboozled by the Twitter casuals on this app.

The #Raiders are taking on the persona of their head coach and buying in! Head Coach Klint Kubiak has been establishing a winning culture since his arrival! 👇#MambaMentality@Raiders
Jayson Tatum was asked what moment he’s still chasing:
“Another championship… and lifting that Finals MVP trophy.”
Follow up: Can you actually do it in Boston?
Tatum: “Absolutely.” 😤 🏆
I am taking 40 year old Mike over 40 year old Bron any day! 👊
You witnessed last night what Bron does when he cant use his size and athleticism to bully guys. He is not skilled enough to do ANYTHING ✌️
Maxx Crosby is playing metnor for Fernando Mendoza 👀🏈
Vegas made Mendoza the No. 1 pick, and Crosby FaceTimed rookie QB on draft night, and he’s ready to “take him under my wing.”
For a rookie QB carrying franchise expectations, having your best player in your corner is huge.
I mean Packers steelers chiefs and patriots 100% are guided by the officials and teams like the browns raiders bills and other teams are held down where they been it's not even entertaining anymore at this point sake teams year in year out
