Whether you cheered for the commercials, a good game, halftime or the snacks, the Super Bowl continued its dynasty as the ultimate Sunday Funday.
The legend lives on,
The Last Night’s Game Team

NFL (National Football League)
The drought is over for the Kansas City Chiefs. In a great battle between two stellar teams, the Chiefs won the Super Bowl for the first time in 50 years. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes announced he’s going to Disney World to celebrate being named the youngest player, 24, in NFL history to win an MVP award (2018), Super Bowl MVP and a Super Bowl trophy. His head coach, Andy Reid, finally claimed his first Super Bowl title after 20 years as a head coach. Surely the Chiefs “flu” is decimating office attendance this morning. DANCING IN THE STREETS
Overtime
One duo you could bet on? Jennifer Lopez and Shakira. The two killed it in their halftime show in outfits that made us question our choice to consume so many snacks. Their secret special guest performer? Emme – JLo’s daughter, who proved that she has pipes.
Then there were the commercials. The experts all loved Bill Murray, his Jeep co-pilot Punxsutaweney Phil and the commercial that took fate to make it happen. Tom Brady teased us earlier in the week, but showed us how smart he is to get paid to tell us he’s not going anywhere. Let’s not forget Sam Elliott facing off with Lil Nas X and Post Malone. FORGET WORKING, WATCH THEM AGAIN
Sideline stat
Meanwhile, down under we have two new Australian Open champions (tennis). The 21-year-old American Sofia Kenin won her first Grand Slam title (i.e winning one of the four major tournaments in tennis) but her proud dad and lifetime coach is the one who melted hearts. On the men’s side, Novak Djokovic won his eighth Australian Open title. WORTH THE PRICE OF ADMISSION
Coaches’ corner
Don’t worry, we didn’t forget the most important part of yesterday’s excitement. In a game of adoptable puppy cuteness, Team Fluff beat Team Ruff in the 16th Annual Animal Planet Puppy Bowl. In the past, the Puppy Bowl has had a 100% adoption rate. (You can rewatch the game here if you need some levity in your Monday). THE HARD-HITTING REPORTING YOU’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR
What to watch
While you set your bracket picks for tonight’s rose ceremony, watch J.J. Watt’s “The Bachelor” spoof from Saturday Night Live. The Houston Texans (NFL) defensive end played ‘Pilot Pat’ during his first time hosting of SNL. TOO GOOD
