Hey there sports gossipers,
Championship weekend did not disappoint, because the football gods have either blessed or cursed us (depending on how you feel) with another Chiefs-Eagles Super Bowl. We are seated.
Perhaps the most important byproduct of the Chiefs winning yet another AFC Championship was that we got some amazing footage of Taylor Swift on the field watching her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, hoist a trophy.
Are we sad for the Bills here at the Sports Gossip Show? Yes, but we’re in the content business, and there’s not much more we could ask for than Taylor Swift in a suite at the Super Bowl for the second year in a row.
Speaking of content, we have another special episode coming your way this Thursday with someone who actually knows what it feels like to win a Super Bowl.
Thanks again to Mina Kimes for coming on the show last week — if you liked that episode, we hope you’ll tune in for another bonus ep with a guest this week!
As always, our shameless plug to subscribe on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube. We are — don’t know if you’ve heard — doing this ourselves, so please consider becoming a paid subscriber for $8/month or $80/year.
Besides Taylor Swift, here’s what we touched on this week:
We weigh in on the debate around dynasties in sports…
…and the best football fits from Championship weekend.
Then it’s time to give Madison Keys her flowers for winning the Australian Open — the American tennis player won her first Grand Slam by beating the world No. 1 and No. 2. Her speech might have made us tear up.
Also at the Australian Open? Joe Burrow! Maybe he should stay there through the Super Bowl so he isn’t sad.
Next up: the historic, blockbuster WNBA trade that sent Jewell Loyd to the Las Vegas Aces and Kelsey Plum to the LA Sparks.
Does this add fuel to the fiery rumor that college star Paige Bueckers could end up ...pulling an Eli Manning and ending up in Seattle?
Jimmy Butler and the Heat are still being dramatic. The star NBA player and Miami Heat management keep butting heads, and Jimmy keeps needling the team, and the Heat keep suspending him. Do they even remember what they’re fighting over at this point? Tough to say.
We then bring up a name you haven’t heard on SGS in a minute: Aaron Rodgers. The Jets have hired a new head coach and new general manager, and Aaron’s future is murky.
The Cowboys have also hired someone new, and owner Jerry Jones sounded less than enthused about the choice that he made himself.
Finally, a quick check-in on Bill Belichick and his young girlfriend.
Thank you for listening — we’re very excited about the two weeks leading up to the Super Bowl, and will do our best to make sure you don’t miss any sports gossip on the way to the championship!
XOXO,
Sports Gossip Girls
