Some right wing pro-Trump conspiracy theorists think that Taylor Swift is some sort of government asset and that the Super Bowl was rigged in order for the Chiefs to win and that it’d be used as a platform for Taylor Swift to endorse Biden or brainwash viewers or something.
This tweet is poking fun, like ‘everything is going according to plan’. But in real life the heavily favored team won, Swift was there because she’s the girlfriend of one of the players, and Taylor Swift fans are generally left-leaning because demographics
They did win last year, but their team looked nothing like the same team for most of the season. In the last few years, they’ve been known for their high powered offense, putting up tons of receiving yards every game. This year, their offense was pretty bad, especially their receiving during regular season. But their defense was playing well and allowed them to make the playoffs. If you look at power rankings from the first week of the playoffs, most people had them in the bottom part of their rankings.
Most of the year is irrelevant. They had a stellar post-season and nobody is calling it an “upset” because it wasn’t surprising to anyone that the Chiefs pulled it off.
Ok, but when a “heavily favored team” loses, that’s called an upset. I’m not really invested at all in this, just wanted to note that lots of folks were betting on the chiefs and that the regular season isn’t that good of a proxy for post season performance. I wish your favored sportsball team good fortune.

Oh, I’m guessing I have to deal with a shitload of Chiefs jersey wearing people yelling at work today and comparing their gambling wins?
ah yes, so the usual huh
All correct except the “heavily favored team won”. The Chiefs weren’t really seen as a good team for most of the year and weren’t expected to win.
Didn’t they win last year? Did that not factor into it?

Very interesting, thank you.

Not sure what you’re arguing here. I didn’t call it an “upset”. I said they weren’t the “heavily favored team”.

Thanks for looking out for us, champ.
Deep state interference confirmed
The better team won, but they were not picked to be the favorite. Which I think adds to the conspiracy.
The better quarterback won. Overall I think the 49ers are the better team
Absolutely insane. What are they smoking?
