🚨 Hard Truth of the Week
Sorry, 49ers fans.. we’ve got a hard truth for you this week.

📋 This Week in Delusion
Breaking down the most delusional takes we’re seeing from fans.

You should only be asking yourself one question when it’s the beginning of the week: what sports can I watch?

Here are the best games & moments to make sure you tune into this week:

- Game 1: Wednesday, May 21st @ 8PM EST (TNT)
- Game 2: Friday, May 23rd @ 8PM EST (TNT)

- Game 1: Tuesday, May 20th @ 8:30PM EST (ESPN)
- Game 2: Thursday, May 22nd @ 8:30PM EST (ESPN)

While Paige Bueckers was considered the unanimous #1 pick in the 2025 WNBA draft, Dominique Malonga shot up the draft boards with some even calling her the WNBA’s Wemby. You can catch the game May 19th @ 8PM EST on NBATV.

Listen, the 49ers have had a great run. But we’re here to tell you that the championship window is about to be officially over.

It’s hard to believe it’s been 2 years since the 49ers had their heartbreaking loss against the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. Purdy just got a massive contract extension & the 49ers have locked up nearly all of their big talent. But the Championship window? It’s over.

Nick Bosa? He had his lowest sack total since his rookie year last year. Trent Williams? A generational LT who could retire at any moment. Christian McCaffrey is coming off of an achilles & knee ligament issue. Brandon Aiyuk has a torn ACL & MCL that he’s rehabbing & won’t be back until late in the year.

The 49ers aren’t a bad team at all, in fact, they’re a really good team. Age isn’t on their side and with Purdy signing a major contract, their cap flexibility is taking a large hit. If the 49ers don’t win the 2026 Super Bowl, the 49ers will have some tough choices to make on their roster.

To be a fan of a team is to be loyal to chaos. Sports fans know all about heartbreak, but they know all about delusion. Here are the 3 most delusional fan bases in sports right now:

No, no you don’t. Tyrese Haliburton’s jumpshot might look like something from a 5 year old AAU game, but he’s on an incredible run. The Pacers won their head-to-head match-up 3-2 this year, but unless Karl Anthony Towns plays defense.. the Pacers are winning this series 4-2.

Stop it. Get some help. Listen, the Madden curse might not quite be what it once was, but it’s still a thing. And if you’re a running back? Oh, it’s definitely still a thing. Just ask Christian McCaffrey how being the Madden cover athlete worked for him last year.

If you care about Saquon, cross your fingers (and toes) that he’s not the cover athlete for Madden 26.

We’re not so sure about that. Jayson Tatum going down with a torn achilles in May means that you likely won’t see him again until after the All-Star break in 2026. Your team shot so many 3s that even Steph Curry is confused.

Porzingis is suffering from an illness that won’t go away. Al Horford is currently living in a retirement home. Jrue Holiday turns 35 this Summer, Luke Kornet was the best player for your squad in a playoff game & your bench is… well, not great. Barring a big trade, this Celtics team could be looking at the lottery next year.
