Taylor Swift Chiefs Jacket Designed By Wife Of Niners Player

by

The designer of Taylor Swift’s custom Chiefs jacket has been revealed to be Kristin Juszczyk, wife of Niners fullback Kyle Juszczyk. Juszczyk’s work was worn by Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes at the Chiefs’ wild card win over the Dolphins. Additionally, it later popped up at the Lions’ win over the Rams. Actor Taylor Lautner rocked a custom Aidan Hutchinson jacket. However, Juszcyk revealed that the inclement weather around the country almost spelled disaster.

Lautner’s jacket arrived in Memphis the night before the game in Detroit. However, it remained stuck there due to the weather. After reaching out to the FedEx higher-ups, another truck was sent to pick up the parcel. But then that truck broke down. Despite this, a third truck was sent out and able to make it to Detroit. The jacket was delivered to Lautner on the sidelines. “That whole thing should be a Super Bowl commercial itself,” Kyle Juszczyk said.

Bills Debut Taylor Swift Menu Items

Meanwhile, the Bills have prepared a special welcome for Taylor Swift and the Chiefs at Highmark Stadium. The Bills host the Chiefs’ first road playoff game of the Patrick Mahomes era on January 21. The Bills, through their food service provider Delaware North, have added two Swift-themed menu items to the available concessions for the game. The first is the Bad Blood Waffle Fries. This a “2-foot display of spiced waffle fries featuring each city’s culinary specialty. Topped half with Buffalo chicken and blue cheese and half with Kansas City Cattleman’s BBQ pork, cole slaw and bread-and-butter pickles.” The other item is the Karma Quesadilla. Delaware described it as “chicken tenders, bacon and cilantro ranch in a triple-stacked quesadilla, topped with pork-belly chaser.”

“Our culinary team has again designed a great menu for the Divisional playoff game this weekend, with several new items for fans as they cheer on the Bills. We had a lot of fun with this week’s menu – adding a few new options that celebrate this incredible rivalry with the Chiefs and their star-studded fans,” said Andy Altomare, Delaware North’s general manager at Highmark Stadium. Furthermore, other menu items for the game include the Kansas Bowl of Tears BBQ (“A generous portion of mac & cheese, pulled pork, jalapeño, roasted corn, cornbread croutons and pickled red onion”), Boozy Hot Chocolate, and Mulberry Meatballs.

Drake Loses Massive UFC 297 Bet

by

Drake lost $700K as Dricus du Plessis beat Sean Strickland via split decision at UFC 297. The South African claimed the middleweight title after a bloody back-and-forth that could have easily gone the way of the defending champion. Furthermore, the bout was the fourth middleweight title fight to see the belt change hands. Drake would have won $1.4M if Strickland had been able to defend his title.

However, it’s also the second consecutive fight in which Strickland has lost Drake money. Previously, he lost $500,000 when Strickland stunned Israel Adesanya at UFC 293. Drizzy would have walked away with a cool $920K if Adesanya had won. However, Strickland pulled off what many are calling the greatest upset in UFC middleweight history.

Drake Jumps On “Tripod Bro” Trend

Meanwhile, Drake has also been jumping on some viral trends. He recently added to the growing collection of “tripod bro” videos, giving fans a vlog in which he shows off his nighttime routine. Drizzy mixes himself a drink, takes in some art, hits the hookah, and goes swimming. The entire thing is weirdly neon giving much of the apparent lighting in his home. Furthermore, he soundtracked the entire thing with “Virginia Beach”, a track from 2023’s For All The Dogs. The tripod bro trend has gone viral in recent weeks, with male lifestyle vloggers doing “a day in the life” style content.

However, there were also layers to Drake‘s vlog. He tagged Drew Walls, a lifestyle influencer who is often seen going to Target in his videos. This is seemingly another shot at Yasiim Bey, who recently said that Drake’s music is the sort of music that’s perfect for a Target run. That is what made the inclusion of the more ambient “Virginia Beach” so notable, given the recent criticism aimed at that sort of Drake track. However, as a result, fans are now clamoring for Drake to do another video, this time showing him going to Target.

by

Chris Brown’s love life has been in and out of the tabloids throughout his time in the spotlight. The R&B icon has spent time with the likes of Rihanna, Karrueche Tran, and Draya Michele, just to name a few, but has yet to find one special lady to settle down with. Breezy recently made it abundantly clear that he’s not desperate enough to have kids with just anyone, and now, he’s stirring the pot by stepping out alongside YG’s ex, Saweetie, to watch a USC basketball game.

The Icy Girl was at her Alma Mater in support of their athletic department. According to comments on @theneighborhoodtalk’s post, she was invited by JuJu Watkins, whose cousin sat between her and Brown courtside at the event. Now that footage from the game is circulating online, some social media users are contemplating whether Saweetie and the “With You” hitmaker would make a strong couple or not.

Lamar Jackson Admits He Did “A Lot Of Cursing” During “Inappropriate” Halftime Speech

by

Lamar Jackson says he gave an impassioned halftime speech filled with “a lot of cursing” during the Baltimore Ravens’ 34-10 win over the Houston Texans in the divisional round of the playoffs on Sunday. After the break, the team scored 24 unanswered points to lock in the victory. When asked about the speech, he described it as “inappropriate” to repeat.

“It would be inappropriate if I said it right here,” Jackson admitted to reporters. “We weren’t doing our job with our unit. In the second half, we wanted to put points on the board, start moving the ball, moving the chains and start looking like ourselves.” After being asked to elaborate on the halftime speech, he said there was “a lot of cursing.”

The Buffalo Bills intend on welcoming Taylor Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs to Highmark Stadium with a little bit of flair. The Bills, through their food service provider Delaware North, have added two Swift-themed menu items to the available concessions for the game.

Bills Roast Patrick Mahomes Ahead Of Road Playoff Debut

Meanwhile, the Bills have also addressed the fact that they will be playing host to Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes’ first career road playoff game. “[Mahomes has] only been here once. So he’s never been here. Simple as that. Pat has never been to the Bills stadium in full. … The environment will be different, and not to say it’s in our favor, but stadium is our favor. Stadium is us. That helps us. I care what nobody says. This is the most dopest feeling I’ve ever had. We’re having two back-to-back playoff games home. Come on now, like we get to leave and go eat wings. It’s cool. So good luck,” Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins said.

Not only is this the first road playoff game of Mahomes’ career, but it’s also just his second trip to Buffalo. The Chiefs and Bills met at Orchard Park during the 2020 season. However, they played in front of an open stadium due to COVID restrictions. The teams other five matchups since Mahomes and Josh Allen entered the league have all taken place at Arrowhead Stadium.

Drake Bets $700,000 On Strickland-Du Plessis At UFC 297

by

Drake is back with another massive bet. The Canadian rapper showed off a Stake betting ticket showing he had put $700,000 on Sean Strickland to beat Dricus du Plessis at UFC 297. With Stake giving 1.97 odds on Strickland, Drake will come away with $1.4M if Strickland can take down his South African rival.

It appears that Drake has learned the error of his ways. Previously, he lost $500,000 when Strickland stunned Israel Adesanya at UFC 293. Drizzy would have walked away with a cool $920K if Adesanya had won. However, Strickland pulled off what many are calling the greatest upset in UFC middleweight history. While there wasn’t a KO in Sydney, Strickland edged out a close fight to win by unanimous decision and take the middleweight belt.

Sean Strickland Calls Out Andrew Tate

Meanwhile, Strickland has been taking his post-Adesanya fight fame in stride. In September 2023, days after beating Adesanya, Strickland called out Andrew Tate. “Here’s the thing about Andrew Tate. As young men, I can see why you look up to him because you are moralless men. You have no values, you have no positive role models. You latch onto a piece of shit like Tate, who has money, who has women. Andrew Tate is a con artist. Have you seen that interview where he goes on about how he used to pretend to be a cam girl and rob people’s savings? He has no remorse. If you want to look up to someone, look up to someone like Jordan Peterson,” Strickland said.

As for Drake, his last big bet was on Logan Paul’s fight with Dillon Danis. Drake lost $850K despite Logan Paul claiming victory over Dillon Danis last night. The musician had put down the massive bet on Paul to beat Danis via KO in the six-round fight in Manchester. However, as the fight officially ended via disqualification, Drake’s bet was officially unsuccessful. If Paul had managed to knock out Danis, Drake would have walked away with $1.35M.

Fat Joe Roasts Gillie Da Kid For Crawford Challenge

Meanwhile, Fat Joe has clowned on Gillie Da Kid after the latter challenged Jamal Crawford to a one-on-one basketball challenge. “Yo, Gillie gotta stop. Nobody loves Gillie and Wallo more than me, but Gillie one-on-one against Jamal Crawford? I don’t got Gillie scoring two [points]. Gillie from Philly, my brother, talking about how he taking on Jamal Crawford — is he on dust? What they got over there in Philly, the tranq [tranquilizer]. You seen that shit where people be just Zombie’d out. It’s worse! Yeah, Gillie gotta relax,” Joe said on Instagram. Furthermore, Joe told Crawford to “break his ankles” in reference to Gillie.

Gillie’s challenge originally came on his podcast. “I bet you Jamal Crawford will not accept this challenge one-on-one. I will cook the sh-t [out of him]. Let me just say this, Jamal Crawford is gonna get his baskets — that’s what he do. He cook everybody. But guess who else going in the oven? Jamal fucking Crawford. He gotta guard me. I’m like Bubba Chuck. I know I’m a muthaf-cking liability on muthaf-cking defense, but I’m such a liability on offense that it don’t even f-ckin matter,” Gillie bragged. While the Philly rapper has some wins against other musicians in streetball, Crawford is likely going to be a whole other challenge.

Tara VanDerveer Ties All-Time NCAA Coaching Wins Record

by

Stanford coach Tara VanDerveer has tied the all-time NCAA coaching wins mark set by legendary Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski. Win No. 1202 for VanDerveer came against Oregon, with the No. 8 Cardinal prevailing 88-63 despite losing star senior Cameron Brink in the first quarter. VanDerveer, who took over at Stanford in 1985, can make history and take the record for herself on January 21 against Oregon State. VanDerveer began her coaching career in 1978 at Idaho. She earned her 100th win in 1983 while coaching Ohio State. She hit 1000 wins in 2017.

“It’s a tribute to the great teams I’ve had, the great places I’ve worked. It’s been really exciting because so many people have reached out to me. It’s great for women’s basketball that there’s a lot of attention. I work at a great place, and I have so much support,” VanDerveer told the Pac-12 Network after the win. “Sometimes I can take it for granted because I see her every day. But she’s really been someone who’s changed the game. So it’s an honor to play for her. Every day, I learn something from her,” junior Kiki Iriafen told ESPN.

Caitlin Clark Continues To Make History

The 2023/24 season is shaping up to be a truly historic season for women’s collegiate basketball. Caitlin Clark, a star senior at Iowa, is barreling towards the all-time career scoring record for women’s basketball. At the time of writing, Clark sits in fourth in all-time scoring, with 3306 points. That puts her 222 points away from breaking the record set by Washington’s Kelsey Plum in 2017. Currently averaging 31 points a game, Clark will beat the record during a road game at Indiana on February 22.

However, will Clark declare for the WNBA, where she is the presumptive No. 1 draft pick? That remains to be seen. “I’m going to know when I need to know. I think it’s very similar to my college decision. It’s like I’m in the recruiting process again. It’s really not something I think about every day or let weigh on me. I’m focused on helping this team be the best they can be. The biggest thing is I’m just going to trust my gut. I’m not going to do a lot of research on what’s better. I’m going to trust my gut and go with that,” Clark before the season.

Odell Beckham Jr Recalls Living At Drake’s Home During Break-In

by

Odell Beckham Jr recently recalled being present during a break-in at Drake’s home. “Somehow [these guys] found The Boy’s house, broke into it. And man they come into the room like, ‘We made it to Drake’s crib!’ [Their] socks [were] dirty as hell like they had to crawl through the mountains to get here. So I had to try and play it cool. I had to dap them up but I was like, on edge at this point. They’re like, ‘OBJ wassup man! Can we get a picture? Can we get an autograph?’ OBJ told the Punch Line Podcast.

Furthermore, OBJ noted that things were able to resolved safely, “And to me, I don’t know if they’re carrying something. I don’t know what it was. So I gave them the picture, the autograph, boom – kicked them out. Instantly called security, instantly called cops. But I’m talking about broke into his house! I’ll never forget that. Broke into his house 7:30/8 in the morning. That’s insane!” he continued.

Odell Beckham Jr Speaks On Living With Drake

However, it’s not the first time that OBJ has spoken on his time living with Drake. In September 2023, he clarified what he meant by living with Drake. “Well, I think people have a misunderstanding of that. He was actually on tour and I was living there. Everyone was like, ‘Oh, they’re roommates!’ That wasn’t really it,” Beckham Jr. told GQ this week. Previously, the Ravens receiver had spoken on living at Drake’s Calabasas mansion during the 2016 offseason.

However, Beckham Jr. did speak on his long-standing friendship with Drake and how he spent some time linking up with the rapper around Europe. “I actually stayed in London [once] for two or three months with Von Miller. This was back when Drake was on tour, so our home base was London for a little bit of time. It was our offseason, so we went to Norway, Stockholm, Amsterdam, but London was the home base. That was my favorite hotel, actually. The Rosewood, they always take care of me.”
