This pretty well sums it up:

Congratulations Super Bowl Champions! 

Philly QB Nick Foles named game MVP.  Wow, what a night he had and a Super Bowl to remember, quite unlike any other.

Some say if only there was an extra minute, that the Patriots' Brady would have had more time to create his last-minute magic or two. Well maybe, but considering the formidable pressure the Eagles' defence waged against Brady, it would be highly doubtful to have imagined such a scenario.

The keys to the game were the Eagles' Zach Ertz touchdown that pulled Philadelphia ahead late in the fourth quarter, and the sack of & subsequent fumble by Brady that put a dent in New England's comeback plans late in that sam quarter.

Job very well done, Philadelphia.  Enjoy the victory Eagles fans!
"Fly Eagles Fly".

I don't care about the NFL, but I'm really happy about this.

Here's Shaquem's piece for the Player's Tribune.

This is straight up Westworld poop garbage.
When the Washington Redskins took their cheerleading squad to Costa Rica in 2013 for a calendar photo shoot, the first cause for concern among the cheerleaders came when Redskins officials collected their passports upon arrival at the resort, depriving them of their official identification.

For the photo shoot, at the adults-only Occidental Grand Papagayo resort on Culebra Bay, some of the cheerleaders said they were required to be topless, though the photographs used for the calendar would not show nudity. Others wore nothing but body paint. Given the resort?s secluded setting, such revealing poses would not have been a concern for the women ? except that the Redskins had invited spectators.

A contingent of sponsors and FedExField suite holders ? all men ? were granted up-close access to the photo shoots.

Speaking of ex-NFLers, former Cleveland Browns' QB and criminally-troubled enfant terrible Johnny Manziel,  signed with the CFL's Hamilton Tiger-Cats on a two-year contract.

Manziel will be the team's backup not it's starter according to the official line.

Manziel claims redemption, this from a man who, by his own admission, physically abused his girlfriend (striking her to the point of leaving her temporarily deaf for three months.).  He was also reportedly accused of wanting her killed.

This isn't the first time that the CFL has seen these types join the league.
