Bucket List

"80 for Brady," Snoop Dogg and Pete Davidson hit the sidelines, a fast clash featuring Rob Lowe and this week's Tailgate Treat.

This weekend is one that dreams are made of for those at the top of their game. 


Singing their praises, 
The Last Night's Game Team


NFL (national football League)

The NFL Pro Bowl is this weekend in Las Vegas. The league is attempting to revive the sluggish weekend by turning it into a skills competition and a flag football game. The Pro Bowl was originally designed with the best facing off like other all-star games, but NFL players didn't want to play and risk getting hurt after an already long season. Not sure it's working, though, with projected flag football starting quarterback Josh Allen withdrawing due to an elbow injury. But the Buffalo Bills quarterback will be participating in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am (golf) instead. FORE!


Short and Sweet

  • On the heels of Tom Brady's retirement announcement, "80 For Brady" hits the theatres today. It's a true story of four friends taking a life-changing trip to the Super Bowl to see Brady play.

  • The NHL (National Hockey League) All-Star Game is in South Florida this weekend. Toronto Maple Leafs Mitch Marner hopes the "Miami Vice" vibes on his pink and blue skates featuring his dog Zeus riding a shark will help win his team $1M in prize money

  • This Saturday, Laura Sanko will become the first woman in UFC's (Ultimate Fighting Championship) modern era to color commentary for a UFC fight card. 

  • Look for team captains Pete Davidson and Snoop Dogg and head coaches Peyton and Eli Manning on the sidelines during the flag football game at the Pro Bowl. 


Before We Go

"Drivers start your engines" is what Grand Marshall Rob Lowe will say to kick off the unofficial start to the NASCAR (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) season at the Clash at the Coliseum. The race will occur inside the Los Angeles Coliseum, home of USC football. Waving the green flag to start the race in his home stadium is Heisman Trophy winner and USC quarterback Caleb Williams. PEDAL TO THE METAL

No alcohol for hockey fans, a Christmas Eve subpoena, will Djokovic tie the Grand Slam record and this week's Tailgate Treat?

These athletes hope to have the kind of week that Miley Cyrus is having, with her new song claiming the title of the most streamed track on Spotify in one week. 


Love and sports both have the highest highs and the lowest lows,

NFL (national football League)

The winners of this Sunday's two playoff games will play in the Super Bowl on February 12. The game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles will be one for the ages. Literally. The Niners quarterback Brock Purdy, 23, and Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, 24, will become the first two starting quarterbacks in a conference championship game under 25. THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD


Short and Sweet

  • The beef between LIV and PGA (Professional Golfers Association) golfers is heating up in Dubai after Patrick Reed threw a tee at Rory McIlroy, who Reed happened to serve with a subpoena on Christmas Eve

  • There will be a new women's champion at the Australian Open (tennis) when Elena Rybakina plays No. 5 Aryna Sabalenka. Sabalenka (Belarus) does not have a flag next to her name because Russian and Belarusian players are not allowed to display their home country's flag. 

  • The Cincinnati Bengals (NFL) are hoping to head to back-to-back Super Bowls, and only the Kansas City Chiefs stand in their way. In a repeat of last year's conference championship, can an injured Patrick Mahomes quelch Bengals' quarterback Joe Burrow's trash-talk with a win?  

  • With a personal invitation from Stefanos Tsitsipas, will actress Margot Robbie attend to see him play Novak Djokovic in the men's final at the Australian Open? Djokovic will play for the men's record-tying 22nd Grand Slam win


Before We Go

Madison Square Garden CEO, New York Knicks (NBA - National Basketball Association) and New York Rangers (NHL - National Hockey League) owner James Dolan is threatening to pull alcohol sales at Rangers games after the state launched an investigation into Dolan's use of facial recognition at Madison Square Garden to ban legal enemies from attending games or concerts. Antics like this landed him on our list of the five wackiest people to own sports teamsOVER THE TOP

Time After Time

A vegan cheesecake is on the line, the Cincinnati game ball trend that we'll drink to, reports from down under and this week's Tailgate Treat. 

Nothing breaks the ice like sports (or a chat about vegan cheesecake - see below). 

Sounds sweet,  
The Last Night's Game Team


NFL (national football League)

The Buffalo Bills will play the Cincinnati Bengals in what will surely be an emotional playoff game on Sunday. The last time the two met, Damar Hamlin went into cardiac arrest on the field. 

Bengals coach Zac Taylor hopes to continue the tradition of delivering the winning game ball to a local Cincinnati bar. 

On the other side, one fan who will be cheering for the Bills is Jay Withey. Withey was given two Super Bowl tickets from the Bills after his actions saved two dozen people during the deadly blizzard in Buffalo. FOR THE WIN

Before We Go

American skier Mikaela Shiffrin, 27, is one win away from passing fellow American Lindsey Vonn's record as the most successful women's alpine skier in World Cup racing. Shiffrin will have her chance starting today through Sunday in Italy. GIVE IT YOUR ALL
