Agreed Peter. I have feeling this is all a big set up anyway. Interesting that the Kelce brothers have a show out on Amazon Prime, the same company with exclusive streaming rights to Thursday night football and some playoffs. Why not bring the biggest pop start in the world into the mix as she just concluded the US leg of her tour and pick up some headlines, likes and non NFL viewers. Whole thing sounds fixed to me.

Taylor Swift is nowhere even close to being on my list of top one million things wrong with this world.

All I see is a young artist with real music skills who seems to bring joy to the lives of hundreds of millions of people.

I agree. She actually has musical talent and writes her own songs. I remember when my teen daughter asked me to buy Taylor's first CD at Target. The employee's had never heard of her and had to go in the back to find me a copy. Things have certainly changed.

and She takes care of her people.
And when she puts on a show she puts on a long long show and gives her fans their moneys worth

You can see her movie soon. I read that she filmed her show and is turning it into a movie for the swifties that could not get to her shows

I started to comment in this thread. Then I caught myself and realized I really had nothing to say. I'm an old man now. This isn't for me.

Then for some reason, this clip popped into my head.

Her movie pre-sale tickets have sold out in some locations. I can remember when George Strait came out with his movie, Pure Country. My mom dragged us kids along to get the free promo posters.

What will be the title of the song she writes when they break up. I'm thinking "My tight end didn't score."

I split with my end?

Swiftie fan or not, Kelce fan or not, I would never compare Taylor Swift to Marilyn Monroe or Kelce to Joe DiMaggio. Just no comparison.

I agree that Kelce doesn't (yet) have the athletic track record or broad cultural status that Joe DiMaggio had. Maybe if Tom Brady were the man of the hour, it might be closer.

But I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Taylor Swift is bigger than Marilyn Monroe.

Swift's fan base is demographically broader (not sure how many female fans Marilyn Monroe had, but I suspect her admirers trended heavily male), and her musical talents will resonate far longer than those of Marilyn Monroe. Marilyn Monroe basically had a 12-year career before she died. Taylor Swift has already had a 15-year career, and I'm not sure she's even hit her peak.

This is my new favorite conspiracy theory. I can't tell who has anything to gain from it but that's what tells me it's got legs.
