Big day for the country. BIG day for the country. Gotta lock in today. Have to. If you’re a patriot – and that’s every single person reading this right now – you’re 100% locked in today.
You went to bed with butterflies. You couldn’t sleep. You woke up and immediately fired up the smoker so you could start tailgating. If you work at a woke company, you have today off because it’s MLK Jr. Day.
If you don’t – I do NOT – you took today off because America needed you to. Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.

Mark Andrews became the Bills’ secret weapon.
Another year, another occasion for Lamar Jackson to be let down by his team. The playoff story of the Ravens wrote a new chapter on Sunday night, with Baltimore finally looking like an elite team capable of winning the Super Bowl — then Mark Andrews happened.
It’s rough to distill a team loss down to one guy, but in this case, it’s warranted. Andrews’ meltdown in the fourth quarter was a legendary example of one player ruining everything.

Let’s rank the four teams still standing in the NFL Playoffs by their
The NFL is down to their version of the Final Four.
On Saturday the Kansas City Chiefs and the Washington Commanders punched their tickets to the AFC and the NFC Championship Games, respectively. On Sunday the Philadelphia Eagles and the Buffalo Bills/Baltimore Ravens joined them.
Four teams are left, but who has the best chance of taking home the Lombardi Trophy in a few weeks?
As we have each week of the playoffs, we polled our writers and came up with the rankings.
It ended with Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson locked in an embrace. And there’s no telling what was said between them, but it’s quite obvious the rivalry some would have you believe is born out of their MVP chase, or their differing race, or anything other than competition, was forgotten in that moment.
“I got nothing but respect for Lamar,” Allen would say later. “He’s one of the greatest to put on a uniform and play in the NFL. I’m honored to share the field with him.”
Jackson shared the sentiment.

The Commanders are the only team to win on the road in the playoffs and have even done so twice!
The NFL’s Divisional Round wrapped up on Sunday night which means that there are now only three games left on the season. Crazy, I know.
From a playoffs standpoint, there have been 10 games as of now and amazingly… the home team has won eight of them. 80% is pretty good.
You want to know what’s even more interesting, though? Only one team has won a road game.

The Buckeyes now have a chance to come out on top of the College Football Playoff after suffering a tough rivalry loss.
Leading up to the showdown against the Michigan Wolverines at the end of November, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day had some brutally honest quotes that show how much the rivalry means to him and eats at him when he’s on the losing end of it.
“Other than losing my father and a few other things, like it’s quite honestly, for my family, the worst thing that’s happened,” Day said in November.
