It’s January 29, and you know what that means? If you’re observing Dry January, you’re almost there. That and we’re almost to the Super Bowl.
Super Bowl Showdown: Chiefs vs. 49ers
The Super Bowl is set, and it’s going to be red. The Kansas City Chiefs against the San Francisco 49ers will play in the big game on February 11. Here’s how they got there:
Chiefs vs Ravens
The Chiefs stunned the top-seeded Baltimore Ravens, with Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce making headlines. Kelce even broke Jerry Rice's postseason catch record. And speaking of Kelce, this time, Jason Kelce actually wore a shirt, a Hawaiian one, at the game. We know everyone loves Taylor Swift, and Chiefs head coach Andy Reid got in on the Taylor Swift fandom, sharing a heartwarming moment with her during the postgame celebration.
As for Taylor Swift, despite her Tokyo concert the night before, she's determined to make it to the Super Bowl in Las Vegas. Curious about how she plans to pull it off? Keep an eye on our TikToks and Reels for all the exciting details.
49ers vs. Lions
On the other side of the Super Bowl matchup, the San Francisco 49ers faced the Detroit Lions and overcame a halftime deficit of 24-7 to secure a thrilling victory at 34-31. Brock Purdy, also known as "Mr. Irrelevant," silenced doubters with his remarkable comeback for the 49ers. "Mr. Irrelevant" is the last player chosen in the draft, but Brock Purdy proves that labels don't define him.
Stay tuned as we watch Kristen Juszczyk's Super Bowl attire. She's known for creating custom jackets and outfits for celebrities attending big games, and her husband, Kyle, plays for the 49ers.
Australian Open Champions
Aryna Sabalenka and Jannik Sinner secured their titles in the Australian Open. Sabalenka's win fulfilled a promise to her late father, while Sinner made history as a non- "big three" player. (Big-three: Rafal Nadal, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic).
Sportsmanship Shines
Caitlin Clark, the best player in college basketball, is five points away from the No. 3 spot on the scoring list. Still, instead of celebrating after the game and post-game interview, Clark immediately went to a young fan suffering from leukemia.
Vince McMahon Resigns
Vince McMahon, the co-founder of WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), leaves TKO. This publicly traded company was formed when UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) merged with WWE last year, following a lawsuit filed Thursday that accuses him of sexual misconduct.
