☆ What MAGA World Gets Wrong About the N.F.L. and Taylor - The New York Times

The National Football League is an American cultural behemoth: Ninety-three of 2023’s 100 most-watched television broadcasts were N.F.L. Among those who will be watching the game is National Review senior editor Charles C.W. A native of England, Cooke has become an avid football fan (specifically, of the Jacksonville Jaguars) and has written about his growing understanding of America’s one true national sport. He has also written about some on the Right’s aversion to the N.F.L., particularly as some concoct convoluted conspiracy theories involving singer Taylor Swift and her boyfriend, the Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, while others denounce professional sports as a whole. As Cooke wrote in National Review, “Online, one can say that Taylor Swift is a ‘Deep State psyop’ and prompt a million Lost Boys to clap their hands in glee.

Will this year’s game, between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers, be the most watched ever? By one measure — the total number of people watching — it seems likely to be. Last year’s game set the record, with 115 million viewers in the U.S., and it did not have Taylor Swift.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw went down with a freak Achilles tendon injury in the first half of the Super Bowl against Kansas City on Sunday. Greenlaw bounced up and down on the sideline and then started to run onto the field with a few teammates when he collapsed holding his left leg. Greenlaw started all 15 games he played this season and was the team's second-leading tackler. Greenlaw had dealt with Achilles tendon issues recently, but he missed only those two regular-season games — and one of those was the regular-season finale, which he missed for non-injury reasons.

Move over Disney World, there's a new celebration destination for one of this year's Super Bowl hopefuls. Indeed, Chiefs quarterback and reigning Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes made clear that he expects his team to be focused on the game instead of the temptations of Sin City. If the Chiefs come out on top and help Mahomes earn his third ring, the 28-year-old said he'll make sure the team gets to experience Vegas properly. It's an expensive proposition — the Chiefs' full Super Bowl roster is 53 players — but Mahomes can afford it.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs placed All-Pro left guard Joe Thuney on injured reserve and activated running back Jerick McKinnon on Saturday, finalizing the roster that they will take into the Super Bowl against the San Francisco 49ers. The Chiefs ruled Thuney out for Sunday's game earlier in the week because of an injury to his pectoral muscle that he sustained in their divisional win in Buffalo. Veteran backup Nick Allegretti will get his second start in a Super Bowl in his place. McKinnon is especially useful in the passing game, where he had 25 catches and four touchdowns in 12 games this season. The Chiefs designated defensive tackle Mike Pennel to be their lone practice squad elevation for the Super Bowl.
