Worth The Wait

The winning Super Bowl commercials, the halftime show and the Hollywood sign gets a new look. Plus the Olympics highlights.

Worth The Wait

Nothing comes easy, including getting out of bed on a Monday morning. Especially after a Super Bowl Sunday.

NFL (NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE)

Last night, the Los Angeles Rams earned their first Super Bowl victory as LA's team, defeating the Cincinnati Bengals. Rams head coach Sean McVay, 36, is now the youngest head coach to win a Super Bowl. After the game, two Rams players added some additional excitement to the mix. Amidst the confetti, Taylor Rapp proposed to his girlfriend, and Van Jefferson grabbed his daughter and rushed to the hospital for the birth of his second child. ALL IN A DAY'S WORK

BEFORE WE GO

In Olympics news, Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva was cleared of any doping concerns and will continue to compete in the women's competition. She is the favorite to win gold.

American Erin Jackson nearly missed the Olympics after falling in the trials. (Her teammate gave up her spot so Jackson could go to the Olympics). She set numerous records with her gold medal win yesterday, including becoming the first Black woman to win a speed skating medal of any color. GOLDEN GIRL

Drop It Like It's Hot

All things Super Bowl, Happy Gilmore's version of a PGA tournament, the Puppy Bowl is back and all the Super Bowl party recipes.

What does success look like this weekend? Maybe it's a nap or a new date spot, or perhaps it's talking confidently about the Super Bowl.

All of the above,

NFL (National Football League)

The Cincinnati Bengals take on the Los Angeles Rams this Sunday in Super Bowl 56. The Rams are slight favorites to win in their home stadium. A few other fun facts:

  • It's only the second time in Super Bowl history that the game is a home game for one of the teams (Rams).

  • The cost of a 30-second Super Bowl commercial increased $1M this year to $6.5M.

  • The average person will consume 11,000 calories - more than four and a half times the recommended daily calorie intake.

  • Of the last 17 champions, 14 of those teams were wearing white jerseys. The Bengals elected to wear their black jerseys.

  • The Phoenix Open is the closest a golfer will get to living out a scene from "Happy Gilmore." The PGA (Professional Golfers Association) tournament, which runs through Sunday, is known for rowdy fans and the 16th hole - a par three surrounded by a stadium seating 17,000 people.

  • After finishing in fourth place, Olympian Shaun White gives an emotional goodbye.

  • Super Bowl anthem singer Mickey Guyton is known as "Quicky Mickey" for rushing through the anthem. How will that bode for bettors on Sunday at the big game?

Before We Go

Sundays are ruff, and this one will be no different. The 18th annual Puppy Bowl will air before the Super Bowl, and head coaches Martha Stewart (Team Ruff) and Snoop Dogg (Team Fluff) are back. A record 118 adoptable dogs from 67 shelters across the country are playing in this year's game. But will the kitty halftime performance rival Snoop's actual halftime performance alongside Eminem, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar and D. Dre? 'TILL I COLLAPSE

Before We Go

COVID is putting a damper on the social culture of curling. The sport is known for its camaraderie with pregame handshakes and postgame drinks. The practice of "broomstacking," or competitors stacking their brooms by a fire after a game and sharing a drink, has all but vanished. Teams are operating inside a bubble and missing out on the chance to unite over a cold one. A GOOD SPORT
