Boston police said there were no arrests because Patriots fans are “experienced at winning.” Those same old sages of winning scared Falcons coaches off the concourse after the game:
After the game, several Falcons assistant coaches, including Shanahan, waited for the elevator to go downstairs. It never came. So they were told to walk down a flight. They waded through celebrating Patriots fans who hooted and hollered, many stunned to see members of one of the team’s coaching staffs walking outside the beer and hotdog stands.
The coaches were told to come back, an elevator would stop at that lower level to get him. So they circled back and waited. Ten minutes. Fifteen minutes. Twenty minutes.
“This is (bleeping) bull,” Shanahan yelled!
John Kruk, who will broadcast Phillies games this year, is selling his Naples house.

A New Jersey high school basketball coach recruited international basketball players and has them living at his house, perhaps illegally. Crazy story.
Someone stole Tom Brady’s jersey from his locker. It was probably Chris Pronger.

It’s almost like these win probabilities are complete bullshit:

I know he was doing stuff for the Ellen Show, but a long snapper wearing his own jersey in the winning team’s celebration at the Super Bowl is the kind of self-confidence that allows you to pull impossibly hot blondes on the reg.
Lonzo Ball and Markelle Fultz faced off in the great Future Sixer Bowl of 2017:

#RaiseTheCat:
Joel Embiid may not return to the court by Wednesday. At this point, is holding him out for the all-star break the worst thing?
SEPTA found cracks in their cars again, this time on the El.
When the Super Bowl ended, I couldn’t stop thinking about this:
seriously don't know what i'd do if the eagles lost like that. would legitimately end my life

I seriously think readership around here would take an enormous dip in the months after an Eagles Super Bowl collapse like that. The combination of people walking into traffic, committing themselves to hospitals after breakdowns, and just swearing off sports altogether would cut our audience in half.
I don’t know whose job it was to organize this whole thing but they probably don’t get paid enough:
