Congrats to the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Franciso 49ers for going to the Super Bowl and a rematch of the Super Bowl four years ago. I wish it was the Baltimore Ravens and the Detroit Lions, OK at least the Lions. I don't really care about the Ravens. If you're a Ravens fan, no offense and sorry about what happened but The Ravens didn't for me. A different story with the Lions, usually I'm against teams that beat my teams but I made an exception for the Lions and it looked like they were going to the Super Bowl leading 24-7 at halftime but the 49ers came back to win. Lions had their chance to put the game away but didn't. They dropped balls, overthrew balls, fumbled the ball, and dropped a would-be interception. However, I think the biggest mistake was Dan Campbell going for it twice on fourth down in field goal range and not getting it twice. They lost by 3, THREE!!!!! Those field goals would have made the difference. Yes, the Lions kicker Michael Badgley woul...

I know I know heard me out. Technically, Paramount+ only needs to get Victoria Justice to do the Victorious reboot. Don't get me wrong, I would love for all of the cast to be here. ICarly had all but one return for the reboot. The only person I have almost no confidence in being in the reboot is Ariana Grande for obvious reasons. Everyone else, who knows. Would Leon Thomas leave the recording studio to reprise his Andre role? How's everyone else looking schedule-wise? I recently had a thought, probably a dangerous thought but here it goes, have a Victorious reboot with only Victoria Justice? I know I woke up and chose violence Ok more like I woke up and chose controversy. I know it's an unpopular opinion but I think it should be considered. I was a fan of Mr. Iglesias on Netflix and thought why can't Victorious where Tori is a teacher at Hollywood Arts similar to Mr. Iglesias. The premise is Tori had success as a pop star and actress but her star was wavering and needs ...

No, I'm talking about Taylor Swift's Eras tour, that's will last nearly another year. It's been a heck of a few days for football fans as Alabama head coach Nick Saban retired and New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll parted with their teams possibly firing them though Carroll will be an advisor or something. I know Carroll's resume isn't as impressive as Saban's and Belichick's but he is one of three head coaches to win championships in College Football and the NFL and it would have been two each if he hadn't called a pass play in the goal-line which resulted in an interception against his old team the Patriots. Run the Ball or do a bootleg play. Also, USC lost the 2004 title because the NCAA stripped them because of Reggie Bush's family accepted money from an agent. Would have been two titles stripped but Texas beat USC in the 2006 Rose Bowl. He went 97-19 in USC and 170-120-1 in the NFL, 13...

I know it seems silly to not include Ariana in a Victorious reboot but would she be available if they did one? She's busy with her pop career and she's filming the Wicked movie. It probably won't happen if Paramount+ or whoever does the reboot if there is one takes place in the next few years if they decide to wait on Ariana. I would like if they didn't but again, I don't make those decisions. I also thought of another reboot idea for them coming to their 10-year reunion since they ended over 10 years ago, however, does anyone know who else was in the crew's graduating class? I can't think of one outside those six. Trina and more than likely Sinjin were upperclassmen. Maybe Burf but that's it. Everyone else people who made one appearance, those who were extras, or band members. I'll stick with my original idea that Sikowitz called them in to help save Hollywood Arts. Then again, probably I can have them going to LA for their reunion and they go to me...

After rediscovering Victorious on Paramount+, I thought why didn't Tori and Andre date. I believe they would have made a cute couple. OK maybe Cat and Robbie would have been the cutest couple of the three. I am counting Beck and Jade who were actually a couple. Cat and Robbie are another couple that should have happened but didn't. Rumor had it that both Tori and Andre would have been a couple if the show had a fifth season and Ariana Grande (Cat) did confirm on Twitter/X that Robbie and Cat would have been a couple in a future episode but again Victorious ended at least for Tori and Andre to be a couple. However, Cat and Robbie could have happened with Sam and Cat which was a spinoff of both Icarly and Victorious with Sam Puckett from Icarly and Cat teaming up to run their own babysitting service. They couldn't have Matt Bennett who played Robbie to at least have a recurring role and have Cat and Robbie date. He did have a guest-starring role on the show but it wasn't ...

Now there's only two left for the College Football Championship with the Michigan Wolverines and the Washington Huskies facing off against each other. I know Noles fans are still upset over the snub but you have to admit we did get two great playoff games in the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl and both games were decided on the final play. Both games were great. Also, I'm happy we don't have to deal with another Bama national championship and everyone else not a Bama fan, Sorry not Sorry. Both the Huskies and the Wolverines have played each other 13 times before with Michigan leading 8-5. Four of those times in the Rose Bowl where they're tied at 2. Actually, the last time that the Huskies won was when they faced off against Michigan in the 1992 Rose Bowl. Well, Washington was co-National Championship because the U was also undefeated. Fun Fact the Huskies' head coach was  Don James who played at and graduated from the U. Also a fun fact, the last time that Michigan won th...

Hey I wanted to say some words about 2023 and 2024 and also take a break from writing about Victorious. There will be at least two more posts about Victorious in the future. Anyway, I wanted to talk about a few things like the Playoff Committee picking Alabama over Florida State and the new United Football League which was the United League of the merger of the XFL and the USFL and yes there was a previous UFL from 2009-2012 I believe. How many failed football leagues united?  First the College Football Playoff Committee. Honestly, I do believe it should have been Florida State over Bama. Sorry, but I do still think that even after what happened in the Orange Bowl where the Noles got their asses handed by the Georgia Bulldogs 63-3. Yes, I do cheer for an FSU rival however I also cheer for a Bama rival so well. Florida Gators don't like either school. Yes, my stance on FSU probably has softened because my sister went and graduated as an underclassman there though went did go to Flor...

After rediscovering Victorious, I might have discovered that the main character Tori Vega was not a popular character on the show by looking at YouTube clips/vids and Google. It's not uncommon for people to hate the main character of a show like Andy Bernard from The Office, Eric Forman from that 70's show not to be confused with Eric Foreman from House (whose not those hated list), Ross from Friends, Ted Mosby from How I Met Your Mother, and someone similar to Tori, Rachel Berry from Glee. It should be noted Tori Vega isn't on that list, at least the ones I looked at. Of course, there are also YouTube videos or Google defending Tori. Honestly, I like Tori Vega and don't see why she's hated so damn much. Yes, she has done stuff I can't defend like kissing Beck in front of his girlfriend in class in The Pilot. Granted yes, Jade did pour ice coffee on Tori but Tori already got her back in that Alphabet Improv where they were tit for tat until F where Jade lost. Ye...
