As a guy whose former place of work in Manhattan no longer exists, I'm thankful for people like you who went over there to settle the score. I only wish that we withdrew from Afghanistan in a more honorable way, if at all.

As for Taylor Swift, I am not a fan, but I think if you're looking for pop stars that earn their living through actual musical talent as opposed to other attributes, I think she's pretty on the mark. I just hope for the sake of our youth that she doesn't turn into Britney or Madonna as the years tick on.

scary but the more she comes to games to more hype for football and related merchandise to him. Be interesting to see if she is at the Sunday Night game and the impact on ratings, talk by the broacasters at the game (and the Sports talk radio the next day of the game. Big talk on ESPN radio and WFAN in NY)

meanwhile if he shows up at her concert I do not think anything extra in hype will occurr.

I've never been called a Swiftie and am proud of it, even though I have a couple of Swifties in my extended family. Coordinating the schedules of Travis and Taylor will be difficult at least in the fall. Currently Taylor's carbon foot print is larger than Australia, but the average Swiftie could care less about enlarging it to accommodate Travis. It won't be long, I imagine, before the climate change activists will be protesting at Arrowhead Stadium (aka GEHA). I don't think this is going to end well.

Swifties are great for reaching those hard-to-clean parts of your kitchen floor.

It's hard to understand why so many people seem to care. It's also hard to understand why people put their whole lives out on social media for the world to see.

My wife religiously watches the Bills so that got me through the 1pm games. Swift being at the Chiefs got her interested enough to let a 4pm game play in the house. So thumbs up from me.

They will never protest her or her fellow elites, that's not how they roll.

I'm cringing at the thought of Taylor Swift joining Kelce and Mahomes in some of their many TV commercials.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes, and that one will dislike the next generations popular music.

I think Kelce likes talking about it and is happy to share almost any detail he can. I don't think it's her bringing the attention to herself.

It's interesting but I think people's brains get attuned to what they listened to in their formative years. My parents grew up with classical and the standards, and to them all rock n' roll sounded the same (i.e., noise), which my brothers and I just could not for the life of us understand.

It has been reported that nursing home residents perk up if they are “forced” to listen to their musical favorites when they were youth.

My choice of nursing homes would be the “American Bandstand Convalescent Center.”
