🏈 Your New Super Bowl Champs

DOMINATION! The Eagles crushed the Chiefs 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX, ending KC's three-peat dreams in emphatic fashion.

Things to note:

  • Patrick Mahomes had his worst big game ever (6/14, 33 yards, 2 INTs in first half)

  • Eagles' D-line wrecked KC, getting 6 sacks without blitzing once

  • Jalen Hurts wins MVP (17/22, 221 yards, 2 TDs + rushing TD)

  • Chiefs actually contained Saquon (57 yards) but it didn't matter

The Eagles' patience paid off - from drafting Hurts in 2020 to hiring Vic Fangio this year. Nick Sirianni goes from nearly getting fired last year to bringing Philly its second Super Bowl!

Cooper DeJean's pick-six on his birthday was the exclamation point. Eagles get their revenge from Super Bowl LVII! 🦅

🏀 NBA All-Star Rosters Revealed

UPDATE: Giannis and AD are injured. Trae Young (after getting snubbed) is replacing Giannis and AD’s replacement is TBD.

The NBA All-Star Game is getting a MAJOR format change!

Instead of the usual two teams, we're getting a four-team tournament with teams drafted by Charles Barkley, Shaq, and Kenny Smith (plus the Rising Stars winners coached by Candace Parker).

Team Shaq looks STACKED:

  • LeBron, Steph, KD (Olympic reunion!)

  • AD (replacement TBD)

  • Tatum and Brown (Boston duo)

  • Harden and Dame for firepower

Team Chuck might be even better:

  • MVP frontrunners Jokić, Trae Young, SGA

  • Wemby the phenom

  • Mitchell and KAT

  • Siakam and Şengün

Team Kenny's young guns:

  • Ant Edwards and Jalen Brunson

  • JJJ and Mobley for defense

  • Garland, Cunningham, and Herro for scoring

The format? First to 40 points wins each round, starting February 16th at Chase Center. Two semis, then the final.

🏀 SEC Dominating College Hoops

Major shakeup in college hoops! Alabama is the new #1 after some wild voting drama - they got 15 first-place votes while Auburn (who lost to Florida) actually got MORE with 16, but still dropped to #2 because of how the points shook out.

The SEC is DOMINATING the top spots:

  1. Alabama (first time at #1 since Feb 2023)

  2. Auburn

  3. Florida (giant killer - second time beating #1 this year!)

  4. Tennessee

Other big moves:

  • Duke falls to #5 after losing to Clemson

  • St. John's hits #8 (highest since 1999!)

  • Arizona jumps seven spots to #13

  • Creighton (#21) and Ole Miss (#23) back in

Bama and Auburn will settle it on the court this Saturday in Tuscaloosa! The Iron Bowl rivalry hits the hardwood with #1 on the line! 🏀

🏈 Super Bowl Halftime Dancer Won’t Face Charges

A cast member who displayed a Palestinian/Sudanese flag with "GAZA" and "SUDAN" during Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime show will not face charges, according to New Orleans police.

The incident occurred when one of the dancers, wearing black sweats like the other performers, revealed a hidden flag while standing on a car prop. They then ran across the field before being tackled by security.

Both the NFL and Roc Nation (the show's producer) stated this was not a planned part of the performance. The NFL has banned the individual from future league events.

Kendrick Headlines The Halftime Show

What did you think of Kendrick’s halftime show? We’ve seen a mixed response, with more leaning toward the “worst halftime show of all time.”

The highlights:

  • Samuel L. Jackson as surprise MC

  • Opened with "Squabble Up," "Humble," "DNA"

  • SZA came out for "All The Stars"

  • Tennis GOAT Serena Williams showed up as a backup dancer!

And the moment everyone was waiting for…

Kendrick teased his Drake diss track "Not Like Us" (rocked an "a minor" chain too) before dropping Drake's name with a big grin. And the way the whole stadium sang “a-minor” in unison? RIP Drake.

Winning a Grammy with a diss track is still diabolical.
