Role model for teen daughter - she’s wonderful

Sad she was booed at superbowl :/ but I wish she had been more diplomatic and worn both green and red - she did grow up in Pa and was a long time Eagles fan. I get that TK is her fiancé but the Philly fans saw her as a traitor. I think it would have been wise to give a nod to both her past and her future by showing support for both. Then again, it doesn’t take much to rile the eagles fans.

For me, I can’t really reconcile turning your back on your supposed loyalty to a family/hometown team for your boyfriend as being a role model for womanhood.
But I think she feigned fandom to the eagles because it played well with her fans. Ms. Americana is just becoming more and more true: sell out to the highest bidder!

I think it's entirely normal to root for your loved one's team. Same as parents who went to a certain college, but of course they will support their child's college in a game. Affinities and affiliations change. Why should she stick with the team of people she doesn't know personally v. her boyfriend's and current friends? Makes zero sense to expect this weird behavior from anyone.

Yes! My DD is a D1 athlete. I will always root for my alma mater in every sport except when my daughter’s team plays my school. Then, damn straight I’m 100 percent rooting for my DD to win!!

Good for you, but you aren’t supporting a team because your daddy liked it or your boyfriend is a player. You are supporting your Alma mater. Taylor is just defining herself through the men in her life (as usual).
You can figure out if there is more misogyny in Taylor herself for doing that or in booing her for her switch. Both seem to me like coming from a place of women and men giving into men’s wishes.

This makes absolutely NO sense. People support important people in their lives. That's how it should be. You won't find anyone out there male or female supporting the rival team when their significant other plays. You are the one ascribing a faux feminist agenda to a completely normal behavior everyone exhibits.

No, not everyone does that. You are completely overgeneralizing. You don’t have to support the fandom to support the person. You support the person and their team and watch games with them, but you don’t have to adopt fan persona. I never wore a foot ball jersey to school just because my dad liked the Redskins. I never said I was a fan because my dad was. I liked gymnasts and ice skaters and I owned that. We supported each other, but not by wearing merch and claiming we were fans of the other team/interests.


People do it all the time. Remember the cowboys/redskins dueling houses back in the day? Maybe you are too young, but it used to happen all the time. Most WAGS HAVE to support the team to keep helping their player earn money and stay in the relationship, but Taylor doesn’t need to do that, yet she still switched to Chiefs to fit in.

Your dad didn't play for the Redskins. If he did, are you seriously saying you'd not have cheered him on?

He’s pushing his beer yesterday on his podcast while wearing a hoodie. Nobody goes from smart British pretty boys to this dumb slob.

His Wonderlic score was a 22--that converts to about a 104 IQ--so perfectly average. I'm guessing that at this point in her life she'd trade 15 IQ points for the joys of a partner with low neuroticism.

He flunked high school and college courses. He has CTE and anger issues. He speaks at an elementary school level. Listen to five minutes of their podcast and it’s clear his doofus older brother has a much stronger vocabulary and higher IQ.

Ok but what are your thoughts on Matty Healy

Ugly bisexual junkie, imo.

Taylor is gonna dump Kelce. He’s old and very close to retirement. He’s no longer the reigning champ of the most viewed sport in America. Once he’s done playing there isn’t much opportunity outside of the football sphere for him. The only thing he could possibly use is his status as Taylor’s bf to book random gigs and being a podcast bro who shills cheap beer. She definitely doesn’t want some fat dunce leaching off her status to boost his own post-football career.

And mine- Taylor’s dad din’t play for the eagles, but she declared herself a fan, wore jerseys and put them in her music cause Daddy did. Clearly she was a fan, or cosplayed one.

She could have had some nod (earrings, hair tie, something with the eagles on it) to her former team, but she didn’t.
So she either doesn’t care about football and played a fan on music videos to make her seem girl next door material ( this is what I think it really is) or gives up things she likes for her current boyfriend (which is sad, but also seems probably given her swing from introverted cardigan sweater cat lady to cheerleader in the last couple of years). Or some combination of both.

Travis’s brother was able to acknowledge that he was torn between the two teams.

In the end who cares - only one thing is for sure- Taylor doesn’t care much about the Eagles anymore and so they booed her.

I don’t get why these famous good looking women pick chumps. Megan Fox’s dude seems totally worthless. Are they short on confidence despite their success?

For me, I can’t really reconcile turning your back on your supposed loyalty to a family/hometown team for your boyfriend as being a role model for womanhood.
But I think she feigned fandom to the eagles because it played well with her fans. Ms. Americana is just becoming more and more true: sell out to the highest bidder!

I think it's entirely normal to root for your loved one's team. Same as parents who went to a certain college, but of course they will support their child's college in a game. Affinities and affiliations change. Why should she stick with the team of people she doesn't know personally v. her boyfriend's and current friends? Makes zero sense to expect this weird behavior from anyone.

Yes! My DD is a D1 athlete. I will always root for my alma mater in every sport except when my daughter’s team plays my school. Then, damn straight I’m 100 percent rooting for my DD to win!!

Good for you, but you aren’t supporting a team because your daddy liked it or your boyfriend is a player. You are supporting your Alma mater. Taylor is just defining herself through the men in her life (as usual).
You can figure out if there is more misogyny in Taylor herself for doing that or in booing her for her switch. Both seem to me like coming from a place of women and men giving into men’s wishes.

This makes absolutely NO sense. People support important people in their lives. That's how it should be. You won't find anyone out there male or female supporting the rival team when their significant other plays. You are the one ascribing a faux feminist agenda to a completely normal behavior everyone exhibits.

No, not everyone does that. You are completely overgeneralizing. You don’t have to support the fandom to support the person. You support the person and their team and watch games with them, but you don’t have to adopt fan persona. I never wore a foot ball jersey to school just because my dad liked the Redskins. I never said I was a fan because my dad was. I liked gymnasts and ice skaters and I owned that. We supported each other, but not by wearing merch and claiming we were fans of the other team/interests.


People do it all the time. Remember the cowboys/redskins dueling houses back in the day? Maybe you are too young, but it used to happen all the time. Most WAGS HAVE to support the team to keep helping their player earn money and stay in the relationship, but Taylor doesn’t need to do that, yet she still switched to Chiefs to fit in.

Your dad didn't play for the Redskins. If he did, are you seriously saying you'd not have cheered him on?

The PP never said her dad played for the Redskins.

That was my point...

And mine- Taylor’s dad din’t play for the eagles, but she declared herself a fan, wore jerseys and put them in her music cause Daddy did. Clearly she was a fan, or cosplayed one.

She could have had some nod (earrings, hair tie, something with the eagles on it) to her former team, but she didn’t.
So she either doesn’t care about football and played a fan on music videos to make her seem girl next door material ( this is what I think it really is) or gives up things she likes for her current boyfriend (which is sad, but also seems probably given her swing from introverted cardigan sweater cat lady to cheerleader in the last couple of years). Or some combination of both.

Travis’s brother was able to acknowledge that he was torn between the two teams.

In the end who cares - only one thing is for sure- Taylor doesn’t care much about the Eagles anymore and so they booed her.

I'm kind of shocked at how much you're reading into this. It was simply a football game. Nothing more, nothing less.
