Looking back at Super Bowl XXXIX, with Reid in Philadelphia
Andy Reid and the Philadelphia Eagles had finally reached the Super Bowl.
After four-straight playoff losses, including three straight in the NFC Championship Game, the Eagles were back in the Super Bowl for the first time since 1981, and for the first time with Reid at the helm.
Standing in the way of that elusive first Lombardi Trophy? Bill Belichick, Tom Brady, and the New England Patriots.

As Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts prepare to become the first pair of starting Black Super Bowl QBs, it’s important to acknowledge the 70-year journey to this point.

Things are not going well in the Pac-12 Conference.
USC and UCLA are on their way out after 2023, fleeing for the Big Ten.
As a result, The Pac-12 still doesn’t have a new media rights deal, increasing financial uncertainty.

Things have gotten so desperate that the conference has apparently reached out to institutions like SMU.

How the Eagles can beat the Chiefs, and vice versa, on Super Bowl Sunday
We’ve finally reached that point, folks.
The Super Bowl is finally here, and the Philadelphia Eagles will be squaring off with the Kansas City Chiefs in Arizona to join the exclusive club of teams who have raised the Lombardi Trophy.
You can make the argument that these were the two best teams all season. I mean, they were the one seeds entering the playoffs, and this is the first time that both top seeds from each conference have made the big game since 2017.

LSU head football coach Brian Kelly reportedly filed for divorce earlier this week, but all signs point to him and his wife sticking together after their kids got involved on social media.
Thursday evening WBRZ in Baton Rouge reported that Kelly had filed for divorce from his wife, Fransisca, on Monday. The report claimed that the two, who have been married for 28 years, were set to physically separate on Thursday.
WBRZ published the court filing showing that Kelly had in fact filed for divorce earlier in the week with his wife’s name listed as well.

Here’s the biggest winners and losers from this year’s NBA trade deadline.
The 2023 NBA trade deadline went into overdrive as soon as the clock struck midnight on Thursday. After sending Kyrie Irving to the Dallas Mavericks a few days earlier, the Brooklyn Nets had another blockbuster up their sleeve: trading Kevin Durant to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for two talented wings (Mikal Bridges and Cameron Johnson) and four unprotected first round draft picks.

Patrick Mahomes will have a unique opportunity during the Super Bowl this Sunday.
The Chiefs and Eagles will take the field in Glendale, Arizona this Sunday night for the right to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
If the Chiefs win, Mahomes will enter some very rarified air. The dual-threat QB was named the league’s MVP Thursday night, which marked his second time to win the award.
