Chargers troll Chiefs (and others) in schedule-release video, but ex-KU QB gets love
No one is safe from the Chargers' sharp wit when it comes to the team's annual schedule release video.
The Chargers have taken shots at Chiefsaholic (the alleged bank-robbing Chiefs fan), Taylor Swift, Harrison Butker and Travis Kelce in schedule-release videos in past years.

While the Chargers have used anime and Sims for past videos, the team went with a Minecraft theme on Wednesday, and it didn't disappoint.
No one was safe once again, especially the Raiders. The Chargers once again savaged their AFC West rivals, and it's hilarious. LA also poked fun at the Chiefs' loss to the Eagles in Super Bowl LIX. If you look close, you'll see Chiefsaholic in there again (more than once).
Other highlights include a jab at Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network and Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports for their kerfuffle at the NFL Scouting Combine, and a seemingly positive mention of former KU quarterback Jason Bean (at the expense of the Colts' Anthony Richardson).
This video is loaded with Easter eggs like those. And if you hate the Raiders you're going to love this video.

FTC says group flooded Ticketmaster with fake accounts to buy up tickets
Federal regulators are suing a ticket broker accused in a multimillion-dollar scheme to resell thousands of tickets to live events, including Taylor Swift's record-setting 'Eras Tour,' by bypassing Ticketmaster security measures. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed its suit against Key Investment Group LLC and its affiliates Monday, alleging that the Maryland-based ticket reseller used clandestine measures — including purchasing sham accounts and masking IP addresses — to get around Ticketmaster's ticket purchasing limits. After quickly amassing thousands of tickets for concerts and other events through the fake accounts, the alleged scammers then resold them to fans at higher prices, the lawsuit claims. The FTC detailed as an example in its complaint how the effort worked with Swift's sold-out shows, noting that over five months in 2023, the group bought 2,280 tickets to 38 stops on the 'Eras Tour.' 'Defendants paid $744,970.29 for these tickets and resold them for $1,961,980.65, netting $1,217,010.36 in revenue,' the lawsuit states. The Better Online Ticket Sales (BOTS) Act, which was signed into law in 2016, prohibits efforts to circumvent 'control measures used by Internet ticket sellers to ensure equitable consumer access to tickets for any given event.' Frustrations have persisted, though, as bots have continued to grab tickets for the marked-up resell market. 'President Trump made it clear in his March Executive Order that unscrupulous middlemen who harm fans and jack up prices through anticompetitive methods will hear from us,' FTC Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson said in a statement. 'Today's action puts brokers on notice that the Trump-Vance FTC will police operations that unlawfully circumvent ticket sellers' purchase limits, ensuring that consumers have an opportunity to buy tickets at fair prices.'

Taylor Swift Provides an Update on Her Father's Health
In the recent episode of the New Heights podcast, Taylor Swift opened up in a way unlike she ever has before. Swift discussed everything from her upcoming album to her relationship with her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Swift also opened up about the current health status of her father, Scott Swift. Fans of the superstar might recall that her 73-year-old father underwent major heart surgery earlier this year. Swift described the surgery as 'very intense.' "He's doing good," she said. "He is doing incredibly well. My dad had an interesting summer. He actually had a quintuple bypass surgery.' Despite having a near-perfect electrocardiogram in the past, Swift explained that her father would later take a stress test that detected that he had several areas in his heart with reduced blood flow. This was a cause for concern. COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. When it was determined that her father would need surgery, Swift, her brother Austin, and her mother, Andrea, all moved in with him to help care for him. It was an experience that had Swift reflecting on the passage of time. "He came out of surgery, tried to give guitar picks to all the nurses and doctors, but he wasn't wearing pants. Didn't have pockets, hospital gown," Swift recalled. "I'm having these moments where I'm like, this dude built play sets and swing sets and cribs for me. I'm building his … shower chair and his walker ... Like, it's just surreal, man." Swift's mother also recently had surgery, she revealed. "My mom just got a new knee. She's doing great," Swift said. "This was just, like, the summer of my parental upgrades. We're just upgrading the parents, making sure that they live to be at least 186 years old, because they're two of my best friends."
