In case you are too busy or high-minded to follow every trend: Musical icon Taylor Swift has been seen dating football player Travis Kelce, and therefore her fans (aka ‘Swifties’), who are not in general people to whom professional football has been targeted, are trying to understand this whole new-to-them phenomenon…

Samer Kalaf, at Defector , explains:
… Tayvis is a fascinating collision of two very famous people from distinctly separate worlds. It’s a little like learning that Santa Claus and the Statue of Liberty were spotted at a dimly lit bar in the East Village. Swift’s every act, no matter how mundane, is diligently documented: She was spotted “cleaning up after the game” and “doing a little dance” during the Tomahawk Chop. Additionally, @tswifterastour reported that during the game, the musician was “eating a piece of chicken with ketchup and seemingly ranch!”
As a pro football player, Kelce’s accustomed to media attention, but it’s at a different degree. Nobody’s monitoring what dip he uses for his pieces of chicken. NFL teams are by nature adversarial to press scrutiny, but Kelce has the benefit of playing on a successful team that won the Super Bowl last season, and he’s the best at his position, so there’s a little more goodwill offered him for inviting the spotlight. He’s also featured in practically every TV commercial playing during football games these days, so it’s not like he has a problem with getting his name out there.
The other reason why it’s so amusing to see these two together is because of how it forces these two fandoms to learn about each other. Swifties will become familiar with Andy Reid, while NFL fans will involuntarily form opinions on Matty Healy. Chiefs fans must purchase Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), while Swift fans have to scout the AFC West. That said, I don’t think they’ll have to get too deep into each other’s worlds, because this whole thing feels meticulously orchestrated and due to conclude by the time the NFL playoffs begin or Swift’s next album is released.
But not before the extremely opinionated right-wing Sports Guys, who have yet to forgive Swift for being a liberal who encourages her young fans to register to vote rather than the Aryan goddess of their dankest dreams, are all UP IN THEIR FEELS!!!
hey moron, the reason it did a real dent in Bud Light is mouth-breathing parroting freaks who would mistake a showerhead for an eldritch god are bud light's core demo. you can't affect taylor's bottom line because you *weren't buying her products anyway*. dipshit. https://t.co/EOpKtHn6CZ

Since taking the vaccine, Travis Kelce has won the Super Bowl, been an all pro twice, and is currently dating the most famous woman on the planet
Since refusing to take the vaccine Rodgers started doing drugs in dark holes, got really into podcasts and tore his Achilles https://t.co/c9eU8K7T8R— Evan Sowards (@EvanSowards) October 6, 2023
And now it’s on CNN!
… After last week’s Sunday Night Football game between the Chiefs and the Jets, Rodgers was asked by McAfee about the 23-20 loss and Taylor Swift attending the game at MetLife Stadium.
“There’s some sort of moral victory out there that we hung with the champs and that our defense played well,” Rodgers, who tore his Achilles tendon in his first game with his new team last month after 18 seasons with the Green Bay Packers, told McAfee.
“Pat (Mahomes) didn’t have a crazy game, and ‘Mr. Pfizer,’ we shut him down. He didn’t have a crazy impact game. Obviously, he had some yards and stuff, but I felt like for the most part, we played really tough on defense and played well the last three quarters.”
Both McAfee and co-host AJ Hawk laughed at the joke.
McAfee asked Rodgers again about the nickname, to which the 39-year-old quarterback said: “He’s doing commercials for Pfizer, so I’m sure he’s owning it.”
In 2022, while still with the Green Bay Packers, Rodgers admitted to misleading the media about his Covid-19 vaccination status during an appearance on the ‘Joe Rogan Experience’ podcast.
Earlier that year, Rodgers said he had been immunized against the virus but a few months later, he missed an NFL game due to Covid-19 protocols and confirmed he was unvaccinated…
Taylor Swift’s new post urging her followers to register to vote has led to record-breaking voter registration numbers.
At least 157,041 eligible voters visited the registration site in one day, including a 115% increase in 18-year-old registrations.https://t.co/GzLxLzFjuL pic.twitter.com/0ULCaQgo4x

Makes me think of Andy Griffith’s comedy bit about football from the 50’s.

Bud Light because … one actor in one commercial? Taylor Swift because … voter registration? And Travis Kelce because … he got vaccinated? (Ok and also Taylor Swift.)
I know these people are directing their anger wherever Fox or Joe Rogan or dog knows who tells them to direct it, but to be on such a hair-trigger all the time seems … pathological.

I was never a football fan (though I’ve gotten caught up in the drama of more than one Super Bowl 2nd half). But my brother was, and it only took a couple of sentences one day for him to express the basic concept. You get 4 chances to move 10 yards, or you lose the ball. Fine. Easy.
That said, when I would listen to sports talk shows, I have never been able to make sense of a word. Or for that matter, what there is to say that can fill up a “sports talk show”.
I guess I’m saying there’s explaining football, and then there’s explaining football. My level of understanding is probably about level with the Swifties.
piratedan
@Baud: no, he is not.
Even in this day and age, Swift coming out with a public statement and urging her vans to get involved and register to vote is a big deal.
I’m not a purchaser of her music, but I applaud the way that she’s wrested control of her own career and appreciate that she appears to take care of the people that help her do what she apparently loves doing… performing for her fans. For someone who ends up having to deal with stalkers, and the misogynistic industry that music is (she once sued a guy who groped her to make a point); she appears to be a genuine person who wants to be liked for what she does.
Considering the impact that she and Beyonce have in the industry and the number of tickets sold on her tour and even the films of her concert is likely selling out, she has a economic impact that is magnitudes higher than a professional football player (with the possible exception of Lionel Messi).

Major^4 suggested that Bluesky doesn’t have a lingering Dorsey presence and is much more on top of keeping the trolls out and so far that’s true from what I’ve seen, but its growth via invite only does kind of make it incumbent for us to NOT invite any Nazis too….

It would be economic suicide, for one thing. (Not that RWNJs are known for doing things in their own self-interest, of course).
I think I read that Taylor’s tour is estimated to bring like $5B in extra economic impact ($36M+ per stop!) overall. I’m sure Beyonce’s tour is doing the same. That’s a LOT of cheddar!

@Baud: I’m actually annoyed at the new phone! Mr. Suzanne was having troubles with his (mine was fine), and he found out that it would be a good time from a financial perspective to upgrade all of them on our family plan. They gave us a good deal on the trade-in, which is the only reason I was okay with doing it, because it always strikes me as dumb to not keep things until they stop working. So I do the whole upgrade, wipe the old phone….. and my watch won’t pair with the new phone. And I got to the Apple Store today and they told me the new iOS won’t pair with my phone, because it’s too old. So I’m annoyed! I love the watch.

@Alison Rose: I assume you are talking about the Bess Kalb video. Are you saying she is a terrible person or that Taylor Swift is? I don’t know really anything about either so I am inclined to take your word for it either way. I was just curious.
As far as the insult to young girls, I understood the video (because of its context in the post) to be more about addressing Taylor Swift fans than young girls in general. The assumption during this whole Kelce/Swift kerfuffle is that there isn’t a great deal of overlap between the hardcore Taylor Swift fans and football fans. Certainly the demographics of football viewership is heavily skewed towards middle aged men.
So I guess my point is that I don’t really see the insult. Indeed, I don’t get the sense that Bess Kalb thinks such knowledge about the technical aspects of the sport, whether one possesses such knowledge or not, is even particularly meaningful or useful. Rather it struck me as an amusing commentary on the different perspective a non-football watching fan of the arts might have on a sporting contest. Really her football as theater construction is mostly valid and would probably heavily influence my own perspective on the sport if I still watched football.
