Here are some things NCMS employees, members, and the general public are talking about this week!
Super Bowl LVII is Sunday!
The championship game of the National Football League for the 2022 season is Sunday. The Kansas City Chiefs will take on the Philadelphia Eagles at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, AZ. The Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is looking to be the first player to win the league MVP and the Super Bowl in the same year since 1999. On the Eagles side, Jalen Hurts will be just the 8th QB to start a Super Bowl before turning 25!
Superstar Rihanna is this year’s halftime headliner.
If that Super Bowl isn’t your speed, maybe this one is!
Tom Brady has retired (again!) and the four leads are all over 75 years old! The combination is burning up theaters! “80 for Brady” is a surprise hit and a perfect option for those who are not sitting down to the Chiefs and Eagles on Sunday night. The movie almost won the box office last weekend and has a 90% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes!
Join Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Rita Moreno, Sally Field, and Tom Brady for the hottest road trip movie of the winter!
