    Breaking News : Swifties hail Taylor Swift for "arranging" her lead guitarist's upcoming baby so he could spend time with his newest fan base, MELTS, during the Eras tour. 

    Paul Sidoti took to social media to announce that he and wife Ashley welcomed a son, Samuel Paul, on March 12.

    Paul has been the lead guitarist and background vocalist for the Grammy winning artist since December 2007.

    He recently posted an adorable photo of the newborn to his Instagram, writing: ‘This morning, we welcomed our little miracle Sammy Sidoti into the world. Our prayers were answered and mommy and baby are doing great. Big sister Scarlett is over the moon having a baby brother. All my love to @ashsidoti.’

    Fans were quick to share their congratulations and even praised Swift for ‘planning’ the Eras tour around the expectant baby.

    ‘I love that she planned the tour around the due date preemptively,’ one fan wrote.

    ‘[The baby] waited until the Eras tour took a 2 month break!!!!’

    Oh my gosh, Paul – I’m so happy for you!! Good thing your new buddy waited til you got home from Asia! Congrats all around… way to go, Mrs. Sidoti/Mama Queen! another user commented.

    Swift and her team are currently enjoying a break for two months ahead of a lengthy run of European dates.

    They will return to the stage May 9 in Paris.

    It comes after the Grammy Award winner, 34, premiered her documentary Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour in October.

    The documentary has quickly become the No. 1 music film on Disney+.

    Patrick Mahomes makes a catch: Chiefs star shows off HUGE catfish in hilarious picture shared by wife Brittany as his daughter Sterling, 3, looks on in disgust!!!!

    Patrick Mahomes is best known for his throwing skills but it turns out that when it comes to fishing, he’s pretty good at making a catch as well.

    The Chiefs quarterback’s wife Brittany shared a hilarious picture on Instagram on Thursday night of Mahomes showing his three-year-old daughter Sterling a huge catfish that he had appeared to have caught.

    Sterling didn’t look too impressed with her famous father, much to Brittany’s amusement on her Instagram post.

    ‘Ster not a fan of a fish the same size as her,’ Brittany wrote, alongside a crying-with-laughter emoji.

    The Mahomes family are currently enjoying the offseason, after Patrick led the Kansas City Chiefs to their second straight Super Bowl victory last season.

    Travis Kelce and Mahomes are planning to host Chiefs parties at their new restaurant

    The Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in Las Vegas in February and will return next season with a shot at recording an unprecedented ‘three-peat’.

    While Mahomes has been fishing, his Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce has been hitting the golf course.

    He was filmed by former NBA player Chandler Parsons celebrating a shot by playing air guitar with his iron while girlfriend Taylor Swift’s ‘Bad Blood’ blasted out.

    Recently, Mahomes and Kelce announced that they are launching a steakhouse in Kansas City, which they anticipate will open in January 2025.

    It will be called ‘1587 Prime’ – the number coming from combining the numbers of Kelce and Mahomes’ Chiefs jerseys.

    Me and Travis been working on it for a while,’ Mahomes said, according to Fox4KC.

    ‘We always see these restaurants and we have a love for bringing people together. I think the biggest thing for us is we’re gonna do whatever we can to keep bringing people together and what better place than Kansas City?’

    ‘Hopefully we can win some games at Arrowhead Stadium and then we get to go over and have a few drinks and food with it.’

    And if 1587 Prime decides to have fish on the menu, Mahomes appears well equipped to provide it himself.

    Your turn next, Travis? Chiefs star Kelce plays the role of doting ‘uncle’ as he poses for photos with friends’ baby – after returning from Bahamas vacation with Taylor Swift…

    Travis Kelce proved to be a doting ‘uncle’ on Thursday when he visited friend Chandler Parsons’ home and posed for pictures with his newly-born son Chrome.

    The Kansas City Chiefs star was filmed playing golf with Parsons earlier in the day before heading back to the former NBA player’s home to hang out with his family.

    Pictures uploaded to Instagram showed Kelce beaming as he held Chrome, who was appropriately wearing pajamas covered in footballs.

    Parsons’ wife, Haylee, captioned the picture: ‘Uncle Trav’s in town!’.

    She also posted video of Kelce signing Chrome’s cranial helmet, which is fitted to correct the shape of a baby’s skull.

    Swift is godmother to actress Jaime King’s child and they have taken adorable photos together

    ‘Making cranial helmets cool!’, Haylee commented before posting another video of Kelce completing the signature.

    The sight of Kelce with a baby will undoubtedly excite Taylor Swift fans as the loved up couple’s relationship continues to thrive.

    While there appears to be no children on the immediate horizon for the A-list couple, Swift has showed her maternal instincts in the past.

    She is the godmother to actress Jaime King’s child and adorable photos of them together were posted on Instagram around eight years ago.

    Kelce sparked engagement rumors and talks of having a baby with Swift earlier this month.

    He was discussing ‘lab-grown’ rings and NBA players, like Victor Wembanyama, as he told his older brother Jason that he can’t wait until he ‘f***in’ makes his own little (or giant, rather) athlete, one day.

    Travis and Taylor recently returned to the US after enjoying a break in the Bahamas where they were pictured frolicking on the beach and enjoying a kiss in the ocean.

    The much needed vacation came after months of flying around the world to see each other amid their busy schedules.

    But things have slowed down for them as of late, with the latest leg of her Eras Tour wrapping earlier this month and the athlete’s football season coming to an end in February.

    ‘This is the first time the two of them have had no commitments and they are both really looking forward to being a normal couple and playing house,’ a source previously revealed to DailyMail.com.

    Taylor is known for spending her downtime baking and hosting friends – and the singer is said to be looking forward to doing the same with her partner.

    ‘She is looking forward to sleeping in and cooking dinners at home,’ the source continued.

    ‘They both want their relationship to be as normal as possible and it works because they are both very aware of their fame but neither let it go to their heads.’

    However, the duo will still have to travel back and forth between their home bases in Kansas City, Missouri and New York City as Taylor prepares for the release of her next studio album, The Tortured Poets Department, on April 19.

    The insider continued: ‘They will split their time between his house and NYC. Taylor is off Eras until May but that doesn’t mean she’s off completely.

    ‘She is working on her push for everything Tortured Poets in April and Travis is going to be there every step of the way.’

  • Travis and Taylor had meticulously pre-planned a dream European vacation, celebrating a sweet summer following Travis’s back-to-back Super Bowl victories.

    Travis and Taylor had meticulously pre-planned a dream European vacation, celebrating a sweet summer following Travis’s back-to-back Super Bowl victories.

    Super Bowl winners Kansas City Chiefs have announced that their team offseason workout program will be held on April 15 and a mandatory two-day mini camp will start on June 11.

    Their Organized Team Activities (OTAs) will be held at various intervals from May 20 up to June 6 as Travis Kelce and his team begin to put the first steps in place for their shot at an unprecedented ‘three-peat’.

    For Kelce in particular, the dates offer some guidance of when he will be focusing on football ahead of a summer where he is expected to travel around Europe with girlfriend Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour dates.

    Players such as Kelce are not always present for each day of the OTAs but last year the tight end spoke to media about ‘attacking them like it’s training camp’ ahead of the new season.

    And it was a method that served the Chiefs well, given they went on to win a second straight Super Bowl.

    Travis Kelce’s summer is taking shape as the Chiefs have announced offseason plans

    Kelce has a mandatory minicamp in June which overlaps with Taylor Swift’s Europe dates

    The June 11-13 Chiefs minicamp is when Swift is playing at Liverpool’s Anfield stadium

    But a year later, Kelce is a truly global name due to his relationship with Swift and she is embarking on a four-month tour of Europe from the beginning of May, starting in Paris.

    From there, the 34-year-old singer is playing multiple shows every week.

    The two-day Chiefs minicamp from June 11-13 could see Kelce miss Swift playing at Liverpool’s Anfield stadium.

    The iconic Premier League team share owners with Boston Red Sox and Swift is playing three nights there from June 13-15. Kelce could theoretically fly over after June 13 and catch one of the latter shows.

    Kelce is also hosting his festival, Kelce Jam, in Kansas City on May 18, so he could be inclined to stay in town for the first OTA of the year on May 20.

    The NFL season typically starts on the Thursday after Labor Day, which this year is September 5.

    It also usually sees the previous year’s Super Bowl winners begin the campaign – last season the Chiefs actually began with a 21-20 loss at Arrowhead Stadium to Detroit Lions and Kelce missed the game hurt.

    Swift’s tour of Europe ends on August 20 at London’s Wembley Stadium, so she could be on hand when Kelce and the Chiefs start their shot at history in early September.

    Swift was a regular at Chiefs games last season as Kelce won another Super Bowl

    But as Swift gears up to tour Europe, Kelce’s attention will turn to preparing for the new season

    It had previously been claimed that Kelce had planned trips to vineyards in Italy with Swift – who plays a weekend in Milan on July 13 and 14 – as well as booking tables at some of Europe’s finest restaurants while she is on tour.

    But while it appears inevitable that Kelce will support his girlfriend where he can this summer, it won’t be long until his football commitments are center of attention once again.

    When his commitments for last seaosn were over, Kelce headed to Australia and Singapore to see her shows.

    The couple were in the Caribbean last weekend, spending time together in the Bahamas.

  • More Than Brawls: How Jason Kelce’s Fire Fuels the Eagles’ Offensive Line

    More Than Brawls: How Jason Kelce’s Fire Fuels the Eagles’ Offensive Line

    Jason Kelce has been the anchor of the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive line for the past nine seasons. While his physical talents and technical skills as a center are undeniable, what truly sets Kelce apart is his fiery passion and relentless intensity. Kelce plays with a competitive fire that is unmatched, and his determination has become infectious among his offensive line teammates. Kelce’s leadership and unwavering competitiveness have been integral to the Eagles’ success in recent years, fueling their performance both individually and collectively as a unit. Through his vocal guidance, ability to set the tone, and talent for fostering cohesion, Kelce has established himself as the heart and soul of Philadelphia’s offensive line – a role that has elevated both his own play and that of his teammates.

    Unwavering Competitiveness

    One of Kelce’s defining traits is his fierce competitiveness that refuses to accept anything less than perfection. From the moment he steps on the field, Kelce is in a competitive mindset, seeking to dominate his opponent on every snap. He holds himself to the highest of standards and is never satisfied, constantly pushing himself to improve even the smallest technical details of his game. Kelce’s teammates have remarked that he brings an “edge” to practice and treats every drill and rep as if it were a game situation. This mentality drives Kelce’s intense preparation and focus, allowing him to consistently perform at an elite level even late into his career.

    However, Kelce’s competitive fire is not just directed internally – he uses it to push those around him as well. He sets the bar extremely high for his offensive line teammates and demands nothing less than their best effort. Kelce holds his fellow linemen accountable and is not afraid to get in a teammate’s face if he sees them slacking or taking a play off. This creates an environment where mediocrity simply is not acceptable. Eagles guard Brandon Brooks described playing with Kelce by saying “You don’t want to be the weak link when you have a guy like that next to you who’s going to call you out.” Kelce’s teammates know he expects 100% effort and concentration on every down, and they do not want to disappoint their fiery leader.

    Vocal Leadership

    In addition to his physical play, Kelce has established himself as the clear vocal leader of Philadelphia’s offensive line. He communicates effectively pre-snap, making protection calls and adjustments based on the defense. During plays, Kelce is constantly talking, providing guidance and encouragement to his teammates. His ability to rally the line and keep them focused and organized is a huge asset, especially in pressure situations.

    Kelce takes his leadership role seriously and does not hesitate to correct or challenge his fellow linemen. However, he balances this accountability with positivity, praising strong blocks or hustle plays. Eagles guard Isaac Seumalo said of Kelce: “He’s always talking, always communicating with us. If we mess up, he’ll let us know. But he’ll also pump us up and keep us going.” This mix of constructive criticism and motivation helps Kelce get the most out of his offensive line unit.

    Beyond just communication, Kelce’s vocal passion and intensity are infectious. When he is fired up making calls or celebrating a big play, it energizes the entire offensive line. Tackle Lane Johnson described the feeling, saying “When you see and hear Kelce getting hyped up, it gets your blood pumping. You just want to go out there and dominate for him.” Kelce’s vocal fire sets the tone and gets his teammates emotionally invested in every down.

    Setting the Tone

    Kelce’s competitive fire and vocal passion allow him to effectively set the tone for Philadelphia’s offensive line play. When he is between the hashes, the entire demeanor and aggressiveness of the unit is elevated. Kelce brings a physical, punishing style that demands the same from his teammates. They know they must match Kelce’s intensity, or they will hear about it from their fiery leader.

    This tone-setting has a noticeable impact on the Eagles’ performance. With Kelce engaged and vocal, the offensive line plays with more discipline, finishing blocks through the whistle with authority. They take on a “bully ball” mentality, looking to overwhelm opponents with power and finish plays in the end zone. Mistakes are minimized as all five linemen lock in, focused by Kelce’s intensity. The quarterback also feels the impact, as Kelce creates a fortress in the middle allowing for clean pockets and easy reads.

    Opposing defenses have picked up on the change in tone that Kelce brings. Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa said after facing the Eagles “Their offensive line played with an edge. You could tell they had that dog in them, especially the center. He was finishing every play and talking trash the whole time.” Kelce’s fire rubs off on his teammates in a way that transforms the Eagles’ offensive identity into a more physical, relentless unit.

    Uniting the Team

    Beyond just setting the tone individually, Kelce’s leadership has been integral to unifying the Eagles’ offensive line into one cohesive five-man unit. He has fostered a strong bond and sense of camaraderie among his teammates. Kelce leads by example with his work ethic and holds his fellow linemen accountable, but does so through a lens of mutual respect. He pushes his teammates to be their best while also having their backs. This balanced approach has created tremendous trust within the group.

    Kelce’s ability to bring different personalities together and speak to each player in a way that resonates has been remarkable. From seasoned vets to young talents, all feel valued and motivated by their center. This unity is evident in the fluidity and cohesion the Eagles’ offensive line plays with. They move and communicate as one, seamlessly making adjustments. Adversity only strengthens their bond, as Kelce’s leadership keeps the group focused on their collective goals.

    The trust and chemistry built over years of battling together under Kelce’s guidance has transformed the Eagles’ offensive line from a group of individuals into a tight-knit brotherhood. This cohesion has been a major factor in their ability to consistently perform at an elite level both in pass protection and run blocking, even as personnel has changed around Kelce. His leadership in uniting the team cannot be overstated and is a big reason for Philadelphia’s offensive success.

    Elevating Performance

    Ultimately, Kelce’s fiery passion and competitive drive have had a tangible impact on elevating the performance of Philadelphia’s offensive line both as a whole and on an individual basis. His intensity and focus rub off on his teammates in a way that pushes them to new heights. Eagles players consistently say they play their best football when Kelce is engaged and leading the charge.

    Kelce holds the offensive line accountable in a way that minimizes mental mistakes. Fewer missed assignments and communication breakdowns lead to cleaner pockets and running lanes. Physically, Kelce’s teammates match and exceed his effort, finishing blocks with authority through the whistle to spring big plays. This attention to detail at both the individual and unit level is a direct result of Kelce lighting the competitive fire under his line.

    Statistically, the Eagles offensive line excels virtually across the board with Kelce as the anchor. They consistently rank among the league’s best in fewest sacks allowed, rushing yards, and yards before contact. Star players like Zach Ertz, Miles Sanders, and Jalen Hurts routinely praise Kelce for giving them time and space to operate. Individual linemen also thrive playing next to such a talented leader, with Brandon Brooks and Lane Johnson both earning multiple Pro Bowl nods.

    Kelce continues finding new ways to push himself and his teammates even in his 10th NFL season. This drive to elevate is what makes him such a special leader and the heartbeat of Philadelphia’s offensive line. His passion and intensity have fueled the success of the unit and been a major factor in the Eagles’ offensive production.

    Conclusion

    Jason Kelce is undoubtedly one of the greatest centers in Philadelphia Eagles history and serves as the fiery heart and soul of their offensive line.
