Jay-Z has picked the Super Bowl halftime headliner every year since Roc Nation partnered with the NFL in 2019. Now Puck reports he picked himself for Super Bowl LXI on February 14, 2027, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood. Neither the NFL nor Jay-Z has confirmed it, but he plays SoFi on October 23 and 24, so an announcement could land any minute. We open there, then move to heavy news in Philadelphia: Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is out for the season after doctors found blood clots in his lungs, with a full recovery expected.
Then the NFL drama keeps rolling. Joe Buck reportedly signed a six-year, roughly $108 million extension at ESPN while Troy Aikman, whose contract ends in March, has no formal offer. Front Office Sports reported the two argued before the Bills-Rams game on Monday Night Football. We also hit LaMelo’s travel, Norm on gambling, whether GTA 6 can really cost the U.S. economy about $1 billion in lost productivity (an economists’ estimate), an AI-written debut novel, Aaron Sorkin’s complexion, and a biking prank on Ryan. We close with Nuclear Opinions.
