Utah Yeti is an alliteration. That's probably 99% of it.

Holy smokes that is dumb if so. Is that what people want now?

Just a bunch of alliterates.

May he throw for 3,000 yards and lose every game.

I'd prefer he throw less than 100 yards a game, at least 3 INTs a game, and lose every game.

letthewookieewin

Playing for Whitt, ~100 yards/game is a reasonable estimate.

But has he won as many hearts?

Sadly the NBA game itself has lost my heart
