Adam Curry argues that the controversy over kneeling is actually about the NFL's "militaristic reality show" package, which is funded by the military for recruitment.

Former NFL coach Bill Belichick's relationship with 24-year-old Jordan Hudson has drawn media scrutiny, including a critical report from Megyn Kelly. During a CBS Mornings interview, Hudson reportedly attempted to "dominate" the conversation and control Belichick's answers, leading to comparisons with Jill Biden's role.

The Green Bay Packers have filed a motion to ban the "tush push" (or "brotherly shove") play in the NFL, citing safety concerns and unfair advantages. The play, used most effectively by the Philadelphia Eagles and Buffalo Bills, has an 87% conversion rate.

Both Super Bowl quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts, are noted for their public expressions of Christian faith.

Videos from Urumqi, Xinjiang, captured residents screaming from high-rise buildings in despair after 40 days of strict lockdown. In the United States, the NFL began requiring players and staff to wear proximity chips to facilitate contact tracing in the event of a positive test.
