Patrick Mahomes has revealed he would love to play for as long as Tom Brady – but the Chiefs quarterback insists he will never let his NFL career come between him and his responsibilities as a father.

Brady spent 23 years in the league, winning seven Super Bowls, before calling time on his career last year.

The former Patriots and Buccaneers quarterback is now 46 but Brady admitted this week that he will ‘never be opposed’ to coming out of retirement.

Mahomes has lifted the Vince Lombardi Trophy three times by the age of 28, having recently led Kansas City to a second successive championship at Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas.

The Chiefs quarterback has two young children with his wife Brittany – daughter Sterling (three) and Patrick ‘Bronze’, who will celebrate his second birthday in November.

Mahomes told TIME he would love to play beyond 40 but he will not sacrifice time with his kids just to prolong his career.

‘I’ve looked, if I played until Tom (Brady)’s age, my daughter would be 19, 20 years old,’ he said. ‘That would mean missing plenty of youth sporting events and other commitments.’

He added: ‘I would love to play that long… at the same time, I want to be there for my daughter. If I can do that, I’ll continue to play. But if I feel like it’s taking away from my family time, that’s when I’ll know it’s time to go.’

Mahomes also insists that Brady has normalized the abnormal by enjoying such success until well into his forties.

‘Tom’s skewed people’s brains on how hard that is to do because of how well he took care of his body,’ the Chiefs stair said. ‘So I’m about to make sure that I get rid of this dad bod if I want to play to 45.’

‘I think I’ve done a great job so far. But it’s hard to take away from what Tom did,’ Mahomes said

Victory over the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas saw Mahomes become only the fifth quarterback in NFL history to win at least three Super Bowls.

He now sits alongside Brady, Terry Bradshaw, Joe Montana and Troy Aikman. But the 28-year-old insists he is ‘nowhere near’ the Greatest Of All Time (GOAT). He won’t even entertain the discussion until after his career is over.

‘You have to build a consistency of a career,’ he said. ‘You see that in any sport. I’ve had a great run. I think I’ve done a great job so far. But it’s hard to take away from what Tom did for so long, what Peyton Manning did, or Aaron Rodgers.

‘There are so many guys, they were at such a high level for such a long time. In order to be in that conversation, you have to do that on a year-to-year basis. You can’t take it for granted that you did it the year before.’

Mahomes has climbed to the top of football after turning his back on a career in baseball. The quarterback’s father was a pitcher for the likes of the Red Sox and the Cubs. Mahomes Jr was drafted by the Detroit Tigers in 2014 but did not sign a contract.

These days, Mahomes is a minority owner of the Kansas City Royals, who play next door to Arrowhead Stadium. The 28-year-old has no plans to juggle careers in baseball and football – or follow Michael Jordan’s lead and switch between sports.

But he has spoken to the MLB team about joining practice one day. ‘If I can maybe go out to a spring training, I’m not opposed to that,’ he said.

‘I’ll get it approved by the Chiefs and everything like that. But maybe one of these years I go out there and see what I got. See if I can still hit the ball or pitch or whatever that is. Maybe not in the games but I can at least practice with them.’

Chiefs coach Andy Reid joked that he would be happy for Mahomes to step up to the plate on one condition: ‘He’d have to take me as a manager,’ he told TIME.

LeBron James’ journey from a promising high school prodigy to a global basketball icon is the stuff of legend. With an unparalleled combination of size, skill, and athleticism, LeBron revolutionized the game, redefining the role of the modern NBA superstar. From his early days with the Cleveland Cavaliers to championship glory with the Miami Heat and the Cleveland Cavaliers again, LeBron’s illustrious career has been marked by countless accolades, including four NBA championships and four NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) awards.

Beyond his on-court achievements, LeBron’s impact extends far beyond basketball. Through his philanthropic efforts, activism, and business ventures, LeBron has become a symbol of empowerment and social change, using his platform to advocate for justice and equality in communities around the world.

As LeBron’s teammate with the Los Angeles Lakers, Anthony Davis has emerged as one of the most dominant forces in the NBA today. With his rare blend of size, skill, and versatility, Davis possesses the potential to carry the torch forward as the face of the league. A seven-time NBA All-Star and Olympic gold medalist, Davis has already established himself as one of the premier players in the game, with the ability to dominate on both ends of the floor.

Under LeBron’s mentorship, Davis has flourished, showcasing his ability to thrive under pressure and deliver in clutch moments. As LeBron’s career winds down, Davis is poised to step into the spotlight and lead the Lakers to continued success, ushering in a new era of dominance for the franchise.

In the annals of basketball history, few players have generated as much excitement and anticipation as Zion Williamson. With his jaw-dropping athleticism and raw talent, Williamson burst onto the scene as a transcendent force during his one season at Duke University. Selected as the first overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft by the New Orleans Pelicans, Williamson wasted no time making his mark on the league, earning Rookie of the Year honors and captivating fans with his electrifying performances.

At just 21 years old, Williamson has already shown glimpses of superstardom, with the potential to become one of the most dominant players of his generation. With his combination of size, strength, and skill, Williamson embodies the next evolution of the NBA superstar, capable of dominating the game in ways previously unseen.

As LeBron James prepares to pass the torch to the next generation of basketball superstars, the legacy he leaves behind is one of excellence, leadership, and inspiration. Whether it’s Anthony Davis leading the Lakers to championship glory or Zion Williamson electrifying crowds with his awe-inspiring athleticism, the future of basketball is in good hands.

As fans, we can only marvel at the incredible journey of LeBron James and eagerly anticipate the rise of his successors. Whether they can match his unparalleled achievements remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: LeBron James’ influence on the game of basketball will endure for generations to come.

The drive, beautifully sculpted in Las Vegas, an all-timer orchestrated by a potential GOAT who now leads a dynasty, started on the 25-yard line. Super Bowl LVIII had reached overtime, just the second extra session in history, and the Kansas City Chiefs, who trailed the San Francisco 49ers 22-19, needed a field goal to extend the game. With 75 more yards and a touchdown, the Chiefs and their magician of a quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, would clinch a third comeback Super Bowl win in five seasons, the first back-to-back Super Bowl victories in two decades, and a new standard of NFL excellence.

The Chiefs, quarterbacked by Mahomes and coached by Andy Reid, could take the baton from Tom Brady and Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots, and redefine the 21st century of football.

So Mahomes went to work. He was immaculate in a do-or-die moment. On a fourth and one from KC’s own 34, on the brink of elimination, Mahomes ran eight yards for a first down. He converted a third and six with his arm, hitting rookie Rashee Rice with a 13-yard pass play. He converted another third down with his legs, scrambling 19 more yards to put the ball on the San Francisco 13, a game-winning touchdown now an inevitability. A pass up the middle to Travis Kelce got the ball to the three-yard line, for another first down.

 

Then wide receiver Mecole Hardman started to run in motion, before he changed directions. Mahomes took the snap, faked a run, and flicked the ball to Hardman, wide open in the flat. “I blacked out when I caught the ball,” Hardman said afterwards. The Chiefs won it on a walk off touchdown.

On the drive—worthy of being christened “The Drive”—Mahomes did not throw a single incomplete pass. He went eight for eight, for 42 passing yards. He ran for 27 more. The arm and legs of Mahomes accounted for 69 of the 75 Super Bowl-winning yards.

All the Niners players could do was sit on their bench, desponSet featured imagedent, letting the confetti fall on their heads.

Mahomes won his third Super Bowl MVP award, shaking off a slow start to finish 34 for 46, for 333 passing yards and two TD scores. He ran for another 66. He was KC’s leading passer and rusher.  Only Tom Brady (5) and Joe Montana (3) have won as many or more Super Bowl MVPs. Brady was 37 when he won his third MVP. Montana was 33.

Mahomes is 28. Both Mahomes and Brady have won 3 Super Bowls in their first six seasons as starting QBs.

 

Kansas City trailed at the half, 10-3. The Chiefs were so frustrated, Kelce screamed at Reid and bumped him. San Francisco took a 10-0 lead in the second quarter, on the strength of a Jake Moody 55-yard field goal—the longest in Super Bowl history, until KC’s Harrison Butker nailed a 57-yarder in the third—and a trick-play touchdown. San Francisco’s Jauan Jennings threw the ball across the field to Christian McCaffery, who then ran for a 21-yard score. Jennings later broke a tackle to muscle his way into the end zone with 11:22 left in the game, giving the Niners a 16-13 lead. Jennings was making his own MVP case, becoming just the second player in Super Bowl history to both catch a TD and throw for one.

The Niners stopped a Mahomes drive with just over five minutes left: a 24-yard Butker field goal tied the game at 16. Moody responded in a stellar day for kickers—aside from a blocked Niners extra point that would come back to haunt them—nailing a 53-yarder to take the lead back. But the Chiefs got the ball back with under two minutes left, just enough time for Mahomes to lead the Chiefs to the San Francisco 11, with a 22-yard pass to Kelce the key play. If Kelce had somehow reached the end zone, instead of being bumped out of bounds, to score the winning touchdown … just imagine the commotion.

Alas, Mahomes had one shot at the end zone to win it, but he left a ball to Kelce, who was well-covered, short. Butker’s chip shot tied it, 19-19, at the end of regulation. An impressive overtime drive by San Francisco—13 plays, 66 yards, more than seven minutes long—stalled at the end. The Niners could only score a field goal. It wasn’t enough.

The Chiefs dropped a bunch of passes this year. They entered the last three games as underdogs. “Just know that the Kansas City Chiefs are never underdogs,” Mahomes said afterwards. “Just know that.” But in the end, when the game is on the line, they still have Mahomes with the ball in his hands. And that’s all the Chiefs need.

In the illustrious lineage of LeBron James, the torch of basketball greatness is poised to be passed down to the next generation through his sons, Bronny and Bryce James. As the offspring of one of the NBA’s most iconic figures, these two young talents are already making waves in the basketball world, garnering attention and admiration for their skill, passion, and potential. Let’s delve into the promising futures of Bronny and Bryce James as they navigate the legacy and expectations that come with their famous surname.

Bronny James: Following in His Father’s Footsteps Born on October 6, 2004, Bronny James, whose full name is LeBron Raymone James Jr., bears the weight of high expectations as he walks the path paved by his legendary father. A rising star in his own right, Bronny has displayed a natural talent for basketball from a young age, drawing comparisons to his father with his athleticism, versatility, and court vision. Currently playing for Sierra Canyon School’s basketball team, Bronny has captured the attention of scouts and fans alike with his impressive performances on the court.

Despite the inevitable comparisons to LeBron, Bronny remains focused on carving out his own identity and legacy in the basketball world. With the guidance and support of his family, coaches, and mentors, he continues to hone his skills and develop his game, eager to leave his mark on the sport he loves. As he navigates the pressures of growing up in the spotlight, Bronny remains grounded and determined to write his own chapter in basketball history.

Bryce Maximus James: Carving His Own Path Born on June 14, 2007, Bryce Maximus James, the younger son of LeBron James, possesses a quiet confidence and tenacity that belies his age. While basketball runs in the family, Bryce has embraced his own passions and interests, exploring various avenues beyond the court. However, his love for the game is undeniable, and he has shown promise as a skilled player with a knack for shooting and ball-handling.

Unlike his older brother Bronny, Bryce has yet to make a significant impact on the basketball scene, opting to focus on his development and growth as a player. However, with his natural talent and dedication to improvement, Bryce has the potential to emerge as a formidable force on the court in the years to come. As he matures both as a player and as a young man, Bryce remains poised to make his mark on the basketball world, carving his own path alongside his brother and father.

Navigating the Legacy of LeBron James: For Bronny and Bryce James, the legacy of their father looms large, serving as both a source of inspiration and a challenge to overcome. While the expectations may be daunting, they are also fueled by the opportunity to build upon their father’s legacy and leave their own indelible mark on the sport of basketball. With LeBron James serving as a mentor and role model, Bronny and Bryce have access to invaluable guidance and support as they navigate the complexities of fame, pressure, and scrutiny.

Bronny and Bryce James represent the next generation of basketball excellence, poised to carry on the legacy of their father, LeBron James. With their talent, determination, and unwavering commitment to success, they embody the potential to become stars in their own right, captivating audiences and inspiring future generations of athletes. As they continue to grow and develop both on and off the court, Bronny and Bryce serve as shining examples of the power of hard work, perseverance, and familial support in achieving greatness.

Patrick Mahomes: More Than Just Talent on the Field

Patrick Mahomes has taken the NFL by storm with his incredible arm talent and playmaking abilities. In just a few short years, he has established himself as one of the best quarterbacks in the league and led the Kansas City Chiefs to a Super Bowl victory. However, Mahomes’ leadership qualities may be an even bigger factor in his success. While his physical gifts are undeniable, Mahomes also excels at bringing out the best in his teammates and maintaining composure in pressure situations. These soft skills have helped transform the Chiefs’ culture and take them to new heights. Interestingly, many of Mahomes’ leadership traits directly correlate to principles that drive success in the business world as well.

Leads by Example

One of the hallmarks of Mahomes’ leadership is that he leads by example through hard work and dedication. He is notorious for his film study and preparation, spending hours breaking down tendencies and weaknesses of upcoming opponents. This work ethic carries over to the practice field as well. Mahomes is often one of the last players to leave, perfecting his craft and pushing himself to new limits each day.

His commitment rubs off on his teammates and sets the standard for what is expected. They see their star quarterback giving his all each day and are motivated to match or exceed that level of investment. Leading by example in this way is critical for any leader, whether on the football field or in a boardroom. When upper management or executives are seen going above and beyond, putting in long hours and demonstrating passion for the company’s success, it inspires others to do the same. Employees are more willing to go the extra mile if their leader is modeling that behavior from the top down.

This principle directly applies to business. At some companies or departments, the culture is driven primarily by talk – lofty mission statements, values posted on the wall, and motivational speeches. But real change happens when leaders back up their words with actions. The best business leaders lead by example through hard work, accountability, and a hands-on approach. They are deeply invested in and passionate about the company’s vision. This tangible demonstration of commitment is profoundly motivating for teams. It shows that success is not just talk – the top leader has skin in the game and is fully dedicated to driving results.

Humility and Shared Success

Despite his immense talent and accomplishments, Mahomes is remarkably humble. He consistently deflects praise to his teammates and coaches, crediting their preparation and execution for his success. After leading Kansas City to yet another comeback victory, Mahomes said “the defense stepped up and made plays. The offensive line battled their tails off. Other guys made plays. It’s never just about one guy.” This attitude of shared success and acknowledging others’ contributions fosters strong team chemistry. Players want to work hard for a leader who elevates them as much as himself.

In business, a similar approach can have big benefits. A humble leader who acknowledges the efforts of subordinates and shares accomplishments builds loyalty, motivation, and collaboration. People don’t want to feel like cogs in a machine – they want to feel valued for their unique roles. Recognizing individuals publicly is a powerful way to make them feel appreciated and empowered. It also sets a tone that the team’s achievements are more important than any single person. This breeds a cohesive, team-first culture where people are invested in each other’s success, not just their own achievements.

Rather than trying to claim all the credit or taking a top-down approach, the best leaders recognize that companies win as a unit, not as individuals. A humble, collaborative spirit where leaders acknowledge others’ contributions creates psychological safety, fosters innovation, and leads to stronger performance overall. Employees are more willing to take risks and go above and beyond when they feel respected and that their efforts will be recognized rather than appropriated. Mahomes exemplifies this through always spreading praise and never seeking individual accolades – a leadership style directly applicable in business.

Empowering Others

Another hallmark of Mahomes’ leadership is his ability to empower his teammates. As the quarterback, he has ultimate responsibility for the offense’s success or failure on every play. But rather than micromanaging everything himself, Mahomes trusts his teammates and puts confidence in them to make plays. He is willing to take risks by letting the situation play out rather than interfering. This empowering approach allows others’ natural talents to shine through.

Wide receiver Tyreek Hill said of Mahomes, “He trusts me to win my one-on-one battles and make a play. As a player, that’s all you can ask for – to have your quarterback trust you like that.” Tight end Travis Kelce echoed this, saying “He gives you the confidence to just go out there and do what you do best. He’s not going to hold you back or try to manage the situation himself.” Empowering others in this way has been a hallmark of Mahomes’ leadership from the start.

The same principle directly applies to effective leadership in business. Micro managers who try to control every detail themselves stifle creativity and initiative from their teams. Instead, great leaders identify individuals’ strengths, give them autonomy in their roles, and trust them to perform without constant oversight. This creates psychological safety for people to take smart risks, learn from mistakes, and utilize their unique skills and perspectives. As a result, employee motivation and performance are maximized. People want to feel ownership over their work rather than like replaceable cogs in a machine.

By empowering others on his team, Mahomes gets the best possible performance from each player. In business, leaders who adopt this empowering style unlock untapped potential in their workforce. Teams are more innovative, dedicated and productive when their skills and decision making are truly valued rather than micromanaged. Mahomes understands the power of empowerment – a lesson all leaders would be wise to emulate.

Composure and Resilience

Another hallmark of Mahomes’ leadership is his composure under extreme pressure. As the quarterback, the game is literally in his hands on every play. Yet he maintains a calm, cool demeanor even when facing adversity or falling behind on the scoreboard. His teammates note how his positive attitude and confidence are contagious, even in tough situations. Rather than getting rattled, Mahomes rallies his team with his resilient mindset.

Wide receiver Sammy Watkins said of Mahomes, “Even when we’re down two scores with two minutes left, it’s like we’re up. He brings that energy. He’s never out of the game.” This composure under fire stems directly from Mahomes’ work ethic and preparation. By thoroughly understanding situations inside and out, he is able to stay calm and think clearly no matter the circumstances. His steady leadership keeps the team believing in the potential for comeback wins, right up until the final whistle.

The ability to maintain composure through challenges is equally important for business leaders. Setbacks, delays, economic shifts and other issues are an inevitable part of any company’s journey. But downturns can be weathered much more smoothly with a leader who remains optimistic, solution-oriented and level-headed even in tough times. Panicking or losing confidence will undermine the team, but steady, resilient leadership provides an anchor. It allows people to rally together, think creatively about overcoming obstacles, and continue pursuing goals despite difficulties.

Mahomes’ ability to stay cool under fire on football’s biggest stages provides a powerful example. In business, maintaining composure helps navigate rough patches while keeping employees motivated. It prevents overreactions to short-term problems and preserves long-term focus on a company’s mission. Learning from Mahomes, the best leaders stay solution-oriented in hard times rather than getting rattled or casting blame. Their steady guidance is invaluable for weathering challenges as a united team.

Leadership Lessons for the Business World

Through his work ethic, humility, empowering approach, and composure under pressure, Patrick Mahomes has established himself as not just an elite quarterback but also an excellent leader. The intangible skills that have propelled his on-field success directly correlate to principles of strong leadership in the business world as well. By leading by example, acknowledging others, empowering teammates, and maintaining calm resolve, Mahomes has transformed the Chiefs’ culture into one of winning, growth and shared success.

For companies seeking to foster motivation, innovation and high performance, Mahomes’ example provides valuable lessons. Prioritizing hard work from the top, sharing credit generously, trusting employees with autonomy, and navigating challenges with a steady hand are hallmarks of the most impactful leaders. Just as Mahomes lifts up those around him to maximize their talents, the same empowering, team-first philosophy unleashes untapped potential in workforces as well.

While football and business differ greatly in their day-to-day operations, the core leadership skills that drive any team to thrive remain largely the same. Mahomes’ innate abilities as both a player and a leader serve as a powerful model for any executive, manager or up-and-coming professional looking to inspire the best in others. His championship resume and continuing success are a testament to the power of strong yet humble leadership, even under intense scrutiny and pressure. For any ambitious individual or company, following Mahomes’ example could prove the difference between mediocrity and greatness.

Notwithstanding their respectable 47-35 final record, the Los Angeles Lakers secured the octet position in the Western Conference, thereby securing a preliminary-round matchup with the New Orleans Pelicans in the NBA Play-In Tournament.

The Lakers generally dominated the Pelicans throughout the regular season, including Sunday’s regular season finale. The Lakers secured a 110-106 victory despite the difficulty of the situation in order to advance to the postseason.

The Pelicans established a commanding 4-0 lead prior to Austin Reaves’s three-pointer for the Lakers; however, Brandon Ingram answered with his own immediately thereafter.

Ingram got off to a quick start by converting two midrange jumpers. However, LeBron James and D’Angelo Russell both made consecutive deep attempts to give the Lakers their initial lead.

However, the Lakers became lifeless after James was substituted, and Zion Williamson started to heat up inside. By the conclusion of the first quarter, Pelicans had established a 34-26 advantage.

James returned for the beginning of the second quarter, and the Lakers went on an unexpectedly quick 9-0 run, compelling the Pelicans to call timeouts.

Gabe Vincent, who was inactive during the regular season, provided the Lakers with the lead with two 3-pointers. Vincent arrived just in time.

Los Angeles subsequently seized control with an additional 13-0 run. Once more, Prince made a penetrating connection, and James was in аttаck mode, incurring foul calls. Williamson, however, went coast to coast and scored at the buzzer to reduce the Lakers’ lead to 60-50, following a poor turnover.

Anthony Davis had a subdued first half and carried over that into the third quarter when he committed an оffensive infraction. However, the Pelicans persisted in their careless ball management, which enabled James and the Lakers to gain a transition advantage and extend their lead to 18.

However, Williamson and the Pelicans responded swiftly with a transition layup and three-point play, which cоmpelled the Lakers to call a timeout.

With James once more coming off the bench, the Pelicans made a further charge to conclude the third quarter and narrow the deficit to seven points, 83-76.

James returned for the beginning of the fourth period and once more reinstated Los Angeles’s order by locating a cutting Vincent for a layup and subsequently Russell for a triple.

However, the Pelicans refused to go away, responding with two triples from Jose Alvarado and Trey Murphy III to trim their deficit to two following a 9-0 runoff.

As Williamson earned 40 points via an alley-oop and a subsequent layup, the game was deadlocked at 95 heading into the dying seconds.

Although Williamson appeared to have sustained an ιnjury, his return to the locker room was a monumental development that effectively ended the contest. In light of this, Reaves assisted Davis on a dunk and subsequently assisted Russell on a three-pointer to extend the Lakers’ lead to four.

In the final seconds, CJ McCollum made a layup that reduced the deficit to two for the Lakers. However, Reaves was fouled and converted both free throws to extend the deficit to four. The game would then be effectively closed out by the Lakers.

LEBRON James is selling his £15 million home in California.

TMZ says the basketball great put the expensive home on the market in March, six years after buying it.

.

.

James owns three homes in Los Angeles, and the one in Brentwood is one of them.

James bought the house for just over £15 million in 2015 while he was with the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is the NBA’s richest player with a £110 million, four-year contract and endorsement deals worth £46 million a year.

The well-known architect Ken Ungar created it and it was built in 2011.

The house is also a very expensive piece of property.

The house is a huge 9.350 square feet and has SIX bedrooms.

There are also EIGHT bathrooms on the site, so residents can choose from even more.

As for a high-end California pad, there are other benefits as well.

James, who won Most Valuable Player in last year’s NBA Finals, lives in a huge house with a pool big enough for a king.

It also has a nice home theater system that is great for watching the latest NBA games.

The home gym is also fun for athletes, and there is even a basketball hoop by the garage that can hold more than one car.

The sale should make James feel better after a bad game where the Lakers were eliminated in the first round of the NBA playoffs.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic, a famous football player, got into a figҺt with James in February because he thought James was getting too involved in politics.

“Do what you’re good at,” the AC Milan star said at first. Do the thing that you do.

“I’m not a politician; I play football because it’s what I do best.” If I were a politician, I’d be running for office.

People who are popular make this mistake as soon as they reach a certain level of fаme.

“Some things are better left out of conversations and to be done with what you’re good at. Otherwise, it looks bad.”

“At the end of the day, I will never shut up about things that are wrong,” James replied.

Savannah Brinson, whom LeBron James wed on this day eight years ago, was his beloved in high school. To mark the occasion and eight years of matrimony, the NBA player publicly conveyed a heartfelt message to his wife, accompanied by photographs from their intimate wedding ceremony.

 

We hosted our very own Met Gala eight years ago. Queen, happy anniversary!” He penned. “Who am I without you in my corner? Completely nobody!” Admire you”

 

In flashback photographs, the groom was attired in a blue velvet jacket, while the bride was resplendent in a strapless fishtail gown.

Not only LeBron is in a celebratory mood at this moment. Savannah’s message to her partner also included candid photographs of the couple and their family.”Happy Anniversary to my Capricorn-turned-Virgo, best friend, and babe, my eternal partner in terrifying films and my ever-present foot warmer!” she wrote. After 8 years, it will be everlasting! I love you very much! ” #ObserveWhatWeDid” 

As previously stated, the couple began dating during their high school years. They They have since become the parents of three children (Bronny, Bryce, and Zhuri) and have remained steadfast during LeBron’s meteoric rise to pop culture icon status. Savannah disclosed in an interview with ESSENCE years ago that she has contributed to his success.

 

“I serve as his support system in all that he requires.” If someone is willing to listen to him. If necessary, or if he expresses, “Hey darling, I’m exhausted. “May I please snooze?” “I will reply, “Yes, darling.” While I snooze, occupy the children with something. It is a component of my responsibilities as his wife and as the mother of his children. I establish an equilibrium in our home for his benefit. I comprehend that he is extremely occupied, and the children have reached an age where they comprehend this. “Being there for him is indispensable to his accomplishments.”

 

Additionally, in interviews and on social media, he has expressed his admiration and affection for Savannah bluntly.

 

“Since high school, we have been in decline,” he told the Hollywood Reporter in 2018. “I frequently listen to rap music, and a close friend once told me, ‘You weren’t there with me when I was shooting in the gym.’” Savannah, on the contrary, was shooting alongside me in the gym when I had nothing.

 

He continued, “[Savannah] was offline during my high school years; there were no cameras or lights.” And she accompanied me there. You would not be conversing with me at this moment if she did not exist.”

While Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is known worldwide for his incredible talent and skill on the football field, he also enjoys traveling and experiencing new places whenever he has time off from the NFL season. Though Mahomes hasn’t explicitly stated his top favorite destinations, we can gather insights into some of the places he loves visiting most based on his frequent social media posts from trips as well as interviews he’s given about his offseason activities. Here’s a closer look at five destinations that seem to be among Patrick Mahomes’s favorites for relaxation and adventure.

## Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

One of the destinations Mahomes visits most is Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Located at the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, Cabo is known for its beautiful beaches, luxurious resorts, championship golf courses, and lively nightlife scene. Mahomes has been spotted in Cabo on numerous occasions, usually with family and close friends in tow.

In February 2022, Mahomes celebrated his 27th birthday in Cabo along with his wife Brittany and fellow NFL stars Travis Kelce and Tyrann Mathieu. Photos from the trip showed the group soaking up the sun on the beach, enjoying lavish dinners at top restaurants, and taking in the scenic views. Mahomes also golfed at the famous Cabo Del Sol golf course while there.

The following December, Mahomes returned to Cabo again with Brittany and their daughter Sterling to ring in the new year. Pictures on Instagram captured the family swimming in the ocean, lounging poolside at their luxury resort, and attending a New Year’s Eve party. Mahomes praised Cabo as the “perfect” warm weather destination to spend the holidays.

Clearly, Mahomes appreciates all that Cabo has to offer for rest and relaxation. With its tropical climate, stunning natural beauty, and array of activities, it’s no wonder this Mexican hot spot continues to entice the superstar quarterback back time and again. Cabo allows Mahomes to completely unwind in style during the NFL offseason.

## Hawaii

Another favorite international getaway for Mahomes is the Hawaiian Islands. The quarterback has taken multiple trips to Hawaii over the past few years, usually opting to visit in the summer months when weather is ideal.

In July 2021, Mahomes and Brittany honeymooned in Hawaii following their lavish wedding celebration in Maui. Photos showed the newlyweds swimming, snorkeling with sea turtles, and soaking up the sun on various Hawaiian beaches. Mahomes also shared a video of himself catching some waves while surfing, showcasing his athletic talents even on vacation.

This past July, Mahomes returned to Hawaii again with Brittany and Sterling. The family spent time relaxing on the white sand beaches of Kauai, taking a helicopter tour over the stunning Napali Coast, and exploring waterfalls. Brittany posted that it was the “perfect family trip.”

When asked about his affinity for Hawaii in an interview with Sports Illustrated, Mahomes explained, “I love being able to get in the ocean and surf. The beaches are so beautiful and it’s amazing to experience a new culture.” It’s clear Mahomes appreciates Hawaii for its natural beauty, laidback island lifestyle, and opportunities for outdoor adventures like surfing. With its consistently warm weather, Hawaii allows Mahomes to escape winter and recharge under the sun.

## Europe

While not as frequent a destination as Mexico or Hawaii, Mahomes has also enjoyed several trips across Europe over the years. Some of the major cities he’s visited include Paris, Rome, London, Amsterdam, and Barcelona.

In 2019, Mahomes and Brittany took their first trip together to Europe, spending time in Paris and Rome. Photos showed them touring iconic landmarks like the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame Cathedral, and the Colosseum, taking in the rich history.

The following year in 2020, Mahomes returned to Europe again, this time bringing his high school sweetheart and Chiefs teammate Anthony Hitchens along for the guys’ trip. They explored London, visiting Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and taking a Thames River cruise.

Most recently in 2022, Mahomes and Brittany went on a romantic getaway to Paris and Barcelona. In Paris, they dined at top restaurants, strolled along the Champs-Elysees, and admired the art at the Louvre Museum. In Barcelona, highlights included seeing Gaudi’s famous architecture like Sagrada Familia and Park Güell.

For Mahomes, Europe offers the chance to experience new cultures and see iconic landmarks he’s learned about. The diverse cities, rich history, and architecture all fascinate him. While a longer international trip, Europe provides Mahomes mental stimulation to balance out relaxation in tropical locales like Hawaii.

## Bahamas

After leading the Chiefs to a Super Bowl LIV victory in 2020, Mahomes and his teammates celebrated with an epic trip to the Bahamas. Photos showed the team unwinding on the pristine beaches of Paradise Island and enjoying lavish dinners together.

This helped cement the Bahamas as a special destination for Mahomes, as he returned again in 2023 following the Chiefs’ Super Bowl LVIII win. This time, Mahomes brought his wife Brittany along for more quality time in the island nation with their daughter Sterling.

During the family trip, Mahomes shared photos of them swimming with pigs, snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, and relaxing poolside at the luxurious Atlantis resort. Brittany praised being able to get away with her “crew” and make more memories in the same place they celebrated Mahomes’ prior championship.

With its gorgeous beaches, lively casinos and nightlife, and top-tier resorts, the Bahamas offers the perfect blend of relaxation and excitement ideal for Mahomes after intense NFL seasons and playoff runs. It’s clearly become a favored spot for the quarterback to unwind with loved ones and teammates after the highs of winning the Super Bowl.

## Disneyland

While not necessarily an international getaway, Disneyland in California also seems to hold a special place in Mahomes’ heart among his favorite destinations. He’s visited the “Happiest Place on Earth” multiple times throughout his life and career both with family as well as friends.

In March 2022, Mahomes took Brittany, Sterling, and several other family members to Disneyland to celebrate Brittany’s birthday. Photos showed them enjoying classic rides like the Mad Hatter tea cups and Dumbo the Flying Elephant.

That November, Mahomes returned to Disneyland again, this time with teammates Travis Kelce, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, and others. They experienced new attractions like Avengers Campus and enjoyed churros and dole whips together.

For Mahomes, Disneyland offers an escape from reality into a magical world of fantasy and nostalgia. He’s spoken about visiting Disneyland often as a child and continues making special memories there with loved ones today. Its sense of wonder and timeless stories clearly still appeal to Mahomes’ youthful spirit, even as one of the NFL’s biggest stars.
