In 2011 I launched Ruling Sports as a sports law blog. Since, I've written for major publications, interviewed top athletes and saw the ins-and-outs of sport. Now, I'm reimagining Ruling Sports. The trailer for my new podcast, Ruling Sports, is live:

@MichaelRyanJett I’ll have to go back and watch. I didn’t tune in until halftime. I’m surprised by the anger this tweet is getting. Ford could’ve been referencing, literally, any of at least 5-10 people. That the rage is coming from one group makes it seem they don’t think their leader is humble.

@CutThruTheBias Do you have Apple Music? They have a good playlist on his “road” to the halftime show. There’s a lot culturally to unpack. If you’re on Instagram, go to the NAACP’s page and read the comments—a lot of people have done good analyses of the symbolism.

Will we ever see an NFL team win three straight Super Bowls?

@VTHistory25 Someone corrected me and said it was “heroes.” I apologize for that. I see heroes as leaders, and admittedly typed this as I was on an elliptical trainer reading closed captioning of the game.

@Aguirre_A_Luis Totally. Curious, though, if there’s another way the Broncos could’ve built around these men. They’re clearly good at what they do and it’s sad we lost their full potential.

@GeoffMatero Does it feel weird to be upset about an ad about leadership?

@andrewg_nft Your language to me—a stranger—signals you’re neither a hero nor a leader if humility is the measuring stick. Good day.

@dspoley If you tap into the song selection and the messages, it was a generational performance.

@Dwight_Dale SO much. You can even read into the choice of “All The Stars.”

@SethRaymanHVA Brutal times for the Broncos indeed. But if there’s someone I’d never bet against, it’s Patrick Mahomes. Should be an interesting half.

GAME OVER in lights. Too good. It was all too good. The artist and show we needed for the moment.
