SUPER BOWL CLASH: TOM BRADY VS DONALD TRUMP OVER BAD BUNNY’S WILD HALFTIME SHOW
Tom Brady and Donald Trump clash over Bad Bunny’s halftime show. Discover why Brady loved it while Trump called it an "affront."
Tom Brady and President Donald Trump aren’t seeing eye to eye when it comes to Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show.
On Sunday at Levi’s Stadium, the Seahawks ran over the Patriots, rolling to a 29-13 win and taking home the Super Bowl LX trophy. Seattle’s defence was on another level, but let’s be honest, half the country was just waiting for the halftime show. Even after the cameras cut, people kept talking about it.
Bad Bunny, straight out of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, took the stage and immediately became the centre of attention. People had already been debating whether he should headline the show, and things got even louder after he called out ICE during his Grammy speech.
His performance was wild—Caribbean colours everywhere, surprise guests, and a clear nod to his roots. He didn’t hold back on the cultural flair. People loved it, and social media blew up with praise for his set.
Trump? Not a fan. He didn’t like the idea of Bad Bunny leading the show and made sure everyone knew it. Brady, on the other hand, couldn’t get enough. He even posted a video of Bad Bunny and Lady Gaga performing together, throwing in a big “Amazing!!!!!!!!!” for good measure.
The stage was packed. Ricky Martin, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Pedro Pascal, Karol G, Young Miko, and David Grutman—they all showed up. Even Alix Earle, who’s been linked to Brady lately, made an appearance.
Meanwhile, Trump hit Truth Social with a full-on rant. He slammed the halftime show, called it “one of the worst, EVER!” and said it was an “affront” to American greatness. He complained that nobody could understand Bad Bunny, called the dancing “disgusting”, and went off about the NFL’s new kickoff rule for good measure.
While all that was going down online, Bad Bunny took the field in all white, with his last name, “Ocasio”, and the number 64 on his jersey. He opened with “Tití Me Preguntó”, striding through a set designed to look like a Puerto Rican field. The show had mashups like “Café con Ron” and “Debí Tirar Más Fotos,” and at one point, Bad Bunny spiked a football into the turf. Dancers waved flags from all over Latin America—Chile, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Cuba, and more. Then Ricky Martin and Lady Gaga joined him, sending the energy through the roof. Fotos”,
TY SIMPSON OFFICIALLY ENTERS QB1 CONVERSATION FOR 2026 NFL DRAFT AFTER BAMA RUN
Ty Simpson challenges Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza for QB1 status in the 2026 NFL Draft after a breakout Bama season.
After waiting behind Jalen Milroe, Ty Simpson’s only season as Alabama’s starter has propelled him into serious first-round talk for the 2026 NFL Draft. He’s even being discussed as the top quarterback prospect over Heisman winner Fernando Mendoza, according to ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky.
But not everyone agrees. Former LSU standout Breiden Fehoko tweeted his scepticism: 'Ty Simpson wasn’t even going to start at Bama in 2026, and here y’all go calling him QB1 this draft.' This is how GMs get fired. Watch.
Orlovsky, however, stands by his view that Simpson holds the edge over Mendoza. He pointed out that when comparing their bodies of work, Simpson carried more of the load for his team. The gap, he says, is clear when you consider who had to do more and who won more games during the season: that’s Simpson, no contest.
Mendoza enters the draft after an extraordinary season. He led Indiana to an undefeated national championship and took home the Heisman Trophy. Scouts see him as the most pro-ready passer but have concerns over his pressure-to-sack rate, which hovers around 18.9%, potentially an issue for teams with weak offensive lines.
Meanwhile, Simpson’s draft stock rose sharply during a strong four-game run facing Georgia, Vanderbilt, Missouri, and Tennessee. His upcoming performance at Alabama’s Pro Day could be crucial, especially for teams looking at quarterbacks who bring mobility and playmaking alongside pocket passing.
Simpson’s experience is limited to just 15 college games, thanks to the stacked quarterback depth at Alabama. Still, once he became the starter, he delivered solid numbers: 3,567 passing yards, 28 touchdowns, and only 5 interceptions in the 2025 season.
Former NFL safety Louis Riddick has been vocal about Simpson’s potential. Speaking on ESPN, Riddick said that seeing him throw in person reveals the kind of physical talent Simpson has. He’s confident in Simpson’s mental game but notes the physical attributes will really stand out when seen up close. Riddick expects Simpson to continue improving his draft stock.
Simpson will get another chance to impress scouts at Alabama’s Pro Day on Wednesday, which could be pivotal in shaping his position ahead of the draft.
MASTERS UPDATE: TIGER WOODS CONFIRMS HE WILL ATTEND AUGUSTA NATIONAL "EITHER WAY" FOR 2026
Tiger Woods admits to a "rough road" after a frustrated TGL return, leaving his 2026 Masters status in serious doubt.
Tiger Woods says he’s still trying to get fit for The Masters next month, but he knows the clock’s not exactly on his side.
He made his golf comeback with Jupiter Links GC in Tomorrow’s Golf League, teaming up with Tom Kim and Max Homa. It’s been a while since Woods last played TGL in February 2025, when he tore his Achilles and had disc replacement surgery in his back. So, yeah, it’s been a rough road.
After his return on Tuesday, Woods didn’t sugarcoat things. He gave a pretty honest update about his chances at Augusta this year. You can tell he’s been keeping the door open for the 2026 Masters, but honestly, his appearance for Jupiter Links might’ve shaken up those plans.
Things actually started off looking good. Woods smashed a 279-yard drive on the second hole; it felt like a flash from the old Tiger. But that faded fast. His game unravelled, and by the seventh hole, he missed a three-yard putt, slammed his club into the ground, and his frustration was obvious.
Woods and his teammates just couldn’t keep up, and Jupiter Links ended up losing 9-2 to the Los Angeles Golf Club trio of Justin Rose, Sahith Theegala, and Tommy Fleetwood.
Afterwards, Tiger didn’t hold back: “We got our arse kicked. Three eagles in a row… I missed a short one to give them momentum, and we never got it back.”
Reporters quickly shifted the focus to The Masters. Even after a disappointing night, Woods still wants to play at Augusta National. “I want to play. I love the tournament. I’m going to be there either way with The Loop that's going up there, as well as the champions dinner. We’ll see how it goes. I’ll be practising and playing at home this week and keep trying to make progress.”
Honestly, it’s obvious why Woods wants to tee it up at Augusta. He’s won The Masters five times (1997, 2001, 2002, 2005, and 2019) and made the cut a record 24 times. Looking at how things went in his latest outing, though, it’s hard to picture him adding to those numbers in a few weeks. But if anyone can surprise people, it’s probably Tiger.
