The new TikTok conspiracy theory involved Travis Kelce's playing schedule and Taylor Swift's tour schedule.
The first two games she is off, and the November game in Buffalo is right across the lake from her tour date.
Also....Travis attended the 87th tour date (that's his number).
People have way too much time on their hands..but yes, the NFL president has said that they factored in Taylor's tour dates when making the schedule. To be fair, it will take her to the stadiums where the Dolphins, Saints, and Colts play this fall . . . so the league had to make sure those teams were all on the road on those dates.

A commencement speaker at the UMass Dartmouth gave every graduate $1,000 in cash, but there was a little catch: They could keep $500, but the other $500 was to be given to someone in need, or a charity or cause close to them.
The speaker was Robert Hale, Jr., the billionaire founder of Granite Telecommunications. He's done this before. He told the crowd that for him and his wife “the greatest joys we’ve had in our life have been the gift of giving."

Someone asked 10,000 millionaires how they built their wealth and what they did for work. And one of the jobs with the most millionaires is . . . TEACHER.
It's because a million bucks isn't really that much anymore once you get close to retirement. And they're also counting the value of your home.
By those standards, the five jobs with the most millionaires are engineer, accountant, teacher, people in management, and lawyer.
Doctor is sixth. They make a lot of money, but also spend a lot. The poll found doctors aren't great in general at managing their money.
The poll found the two main ways people reach at least $1 million in wealth in 2024 is by investing in a 401k, and buying a house they eventually pay off.
