Going into the 59th Super Bowl, I envisioned two scenarios in the matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles. If the more talented Philly team won, it would be a trouncing, a beatdown. If the Chiefs won, it would be done with their usual method:...
Just for the record, I also did a video on this topic for my YouTube Channel. But the subject has a warm place in my heart, and I wanted to give the 1999 St. Louis Rams the special recognition they deserve on this day … It is Jan. 30, the 25-year anniversary of the...
