I hate nothing more than when people show up late to the party when it comes to sports.
As the readers already know, I’m a HUGE college football and Wisconsin Badgers. I live and breath between the goal lines. In my mind there’s nothing better than a Saturday afternoon spent at a football stadium with two top ten teams on the field. It’s heaven on Earth as far as I’m concerned.
So, I’m sure you can imagine my disdain when people show up at the eleventh hour before the start of the season, and start saying the same things I’ve been saying for months. I’ve been saying since the end of the last season my Wisconsin Badgers would be in the college football playoff.
Was it a hot take? Maybe for some, but remember, I know this program like the back of my hand. I was and still am incredibly confident.

Well, it’s four days before their first game and now all these “experts” are trying to come off of the top rope and look all edgy by picking Wisconsin. Here are example one, two, three and four. Welcome to the show guys. Happy to have you here, but where the hell were you five months ago when this didn’t seem like a sure pick?
Can’t wait to see all these people act like they knew the whole time come January. I’m sure that won’t get annoying at any point. Anyways, I hate to brag. As we all know I’m a humble man, but it’s about time people start getting on board with my takes.
