Jason Kelce wore toned-down greenish.
Pregnant Kylie Kelcie wore neutral all black and made headlines for inhaling a bag of Cheetos (?), instead.

She was pregaming.

[O Really]

So the headline asks, "Did Mahomes take a step back?" In regard to his abilities. Seriously? Ya think you'd be saying that if he hadn't been on his back 6 times? It was a big team failure, and mostly because the Chiefs offensive line couldn't handle four quick guys average 6'6 and 340 lbs.

Mahomes should have taken more steps back, and to the side.


This is interesting. Back in August we wondered how Brittany Mahomes' ambiguous support for Dolt .45 would affect her friendship with Kamala-fan TayTay and their seating arrangements at games. Apparently, there was no issue - they're still friends, they sat together at games and they double date.

However, Brittany was reportedly instructed to sit apart from TayTay at the SB and she was in a different box, because of DonOLD's presence. The fear was that DonOLD would whine about TayTay, which he did, and that he would directly or indirectly involve Brittany in his rude tantrum. So, the separation was to protect Brittany from an inevitable backlash. ETTD.

Funny thing is that "Brittany Mahomes Was Brutally Trolled After The Super Bowl Game," anyhow, just not because of anything DonOLD did:

After the Super Bowl, Brittany received a barrage of backlash for sharing pictures of herself from the game on her Instagram page.

Some Kansas City Chiefs fans believed that the post was poorly timed, as the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Chiefs in a 22 - 40 loss.

A user wrote, "So self-absorbed," while another commented, "Not about you."

Meanwhile, some Philadelphia Eagles fans trolled the mother of three about her husband's team loss.

One wrote, "The Kansas City Chiefs are wack. Fly Eagles Fly. American Football has been saved from becoming the Patrick Mahomes Disaster show."

Another commented, "Go Eagles, Patrick, don't show up."

Opps. I think she'd be disliked even if she was liberal. Idk what TayTay's post-game IGs looked like.


Related to the extent that it's another example of how WAGs are treated, even ex-gfs:

After Clips Of Her Celebrating The Eagles’ Win Went Viral, People Are Calling Out The "Unfair" And Misogynistic Backlash Over Travis Kelce’s Ex, Kayla Nicole, Attending The Super Bowl

Overall, Sunday’s Super Bowl was a pretty humiliating experience for Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs, facing a crushing defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles. And if Travis’s night wasn’t rough enough already, it has since emerged that his ex-girlfriend was in the crowd watching the whole thing play out.

For context, Travis and Kayla Nicole started dating in 2017 but broke up for good in 2022. And though she may have spent years repping the Chiefs while she and Travis were together, Kayla was among those proudly supporting the Eagles in New Orleans on Sunday.



... But, despite Kayla simply enjoying the game, minding her business, and making no mention of Travis, a worrying amount of people online have taken issue with her presence — with many latching onto the narrative that she was there simply to spite her ex.

The widespread hate for Kayla online is nothing short of vicious — and if we’re being frank, misogynistic — with posts calling her a “miserable” person and a “loser” garnering thousands of likes on X. Most absurdly of all, a post with over a quarter of a million likes also asks: “how the hell did she get on the field,” which is where we need to set the record straight.

Are the haters mostly Swifties? If so, ironic. Good thing she has defenders.

Though many people may only know her from her high-profile relationship, Kayla is a sports reporter with a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism. And, among other things, she makes content for the sports media brand I Am Athlete, which produces “exclusive, behind-the-scenes content that celebrates the essence of sports, culture, food, and fashion.”...

She’s doing her job. She’s a sports journalist

yall actin like she went there to antagonize that man this is her JOB she is at WORK

Misogyny is dangerous. The speed at which people jumped into the comments to disrespect this woman is alarming. She's a sports journalist, why wouldn't she be at one of the biggest sporting events of the year.

... Well, I am glad to see fans online correcting the narrative — particularly when Kayla has spoken openly in the past about “the constant vitriol” she’s been at the receiving end of since Travis started dating Taylor Swift in 2023.

Sad.

Keep doing your thing, Kayla!

Super Bowl Fans Discover Hollywood Star Is Huge Eagles Fan As She Cheers At Game
“Knew I loved her for a reason,” one social media observer wrote.

A clip of the actor reveling in the team’s rout of the Kansas City Chiefs went viral, surprising and delighting people that she’s “for the Birds.”

The Oscar-winning “Les Miserables” star reportedly grew up in Millburn, New Jersey, a short drive from where the rival New York Giants play. But her parents are both from Philadelphia, apparently imbuing her with soaring devotion to the now two-time Super Bowl champion Eagles.

The “Devil Wears Prada” actor joined fellow celebs Bradley Cooper and Kevin Hart among the Philly faithful on hand.

If Anne Hathaway for eagles.

I'm for the eagles

OTOH:

Mahomes Family Photo With Trump At Super Bowl Draws Some Online Jeers
Randi Mahomes made a gesture in a Super Bowl picture with the president that she’d probably want back.

Patrick Mahomes’ family took a photo with President Donald Trump in a luxury suite before the Super Bowl on Sunday, prompting jeers and sarcasm online.

Trump gave a thumbs-up while Randi Mahomes, mom of the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, held up three fingers, presumably to signify her hope that the team would win an unprecedented third straight Super Bowl. Instead, her eldest son got sacked six times, and the Philadelphia Eagles won easily....

Jinx.

"Official White House Account—Special Assistant to the President and Communications Advisor, @realdonaldtrump ":

The Kansas City quarterback took pains to avoid publicly endorsing Trump or Kamala Harris in the presidential race. And he offered a measured reaction last week to Trump’s attendance at the big game.

But his mother made it clear she was on Team MAGA earlier in the season. “Make America great again, let’s do it, whoo!” the MAGA-hat-wearing Randi said in a video at a game in November.

Supporters of the Eagles and critics of the president poked fun at the image, given the shellacking the Chiefs got in the ensuing hours.

“No wonder the Chiefs are losing bigly,” one person wrote on X.

“And what’s the score now?” another snarked.

Trump With Sign
(I’d say Trump is the dumbest person in America, but that honor has to go to the people who voted for him.)
So much winning

And-then-they-lost… Fly

Explains why they’re losing lmao

Losers.

That’s why they lost

My first thought:

Keith 🏝 Aloha 🏝
(VOTE BLUE - - ANIMAL LOVER - PRO CHOICE - NEVER TRUMP)


Hahahaha it’s a fact

Everything
Trump
Touches
Dies

Go Eagles

Anne Hathaway vs DonOLD - The outcome was doubly certain.

Philadelphia Eagles ‘Making Fans’ Out of Reportedly Snubbing White House

After reigning supreme over the Kansas City Chiefs at this past season's big game, a source close to the Eagles told The Sun that the discussion about how to respond to the White House's invitation resulted in a "massive no."

This would be the second time the Philadelphia team opted not to indulge in the custom. The first diss came during Donald Trump's first term in 2018, when there was a lack of support amongst the entire team, resulting in only a "small number of players" being open to the invite, which was later rescinded by the president over the team's lack of interest.

... "Beating the Chiefs and refusing Trump’s invite. Respect," a fourth added.

"Everytime I think I can’t like the [E]agles players more," another admitted, "they do some shit that makes me go 'damn they’re cool af.'"

"'massive no' is taking me out," one more joked. "like not even a regular no."...

Even better would be a group service day to some community impacted by PINO in lieu of the WH photo op - rehabbing a migrant shelter, volunteering in schools, cleaning up a national park, etc.

A WH invite is a big deal. We have to figure that some players want to accept. The question again may be whether it's a small enough number that it would be embarrassing for PINO to host.

[O Really]

A WH invitation could and should be a big deal. But being "honored" by somebody you know does not actually respect you really isn't an honor.

If that's the case they won't even be invited.

Kind of figured this was the case when they gave him that God awful AI tribute before the Superbowl. Too bad, he was still good.

Well, the Raiders traded for Geno Smith today. Not exactly a franchise-changer, but he is viewed as a solid bridge QB who can lead the offense while also mentoring his eventual replacement.

I don’t think this move precludes Las Vegas from taking Shadeur Sanders in the draft, but maybe a better option would be to take Ashton Jeanty or Tetairoa McMillan with the No. 6 pick, then pick Jaxon Dart or Jalen Milroe later on. I really like Milroe. He’s a guy who is easy to root for.

[O Really]

Geno did a better job for the Seahawks than I expected, but he probably doesn't have many more top seasons. Shadeur needs to get away from Prime, stop being a Prime Time wannabe, concentrate on his game and he'll probably do really well.

I agree completely, which is why I would prefer another rookie QB. Shadeur could very well make a liar out of me, but I’m worried about his attitude. Especially at pick No. 6.

Neon Dion was rash, brash, and in-your-face, but he rarely said anything he couldn't back up. Not so sure Shadeur is there yet, and probably would do better if he didn't try to be.
