Since the NFL was founded in 1922, the league has been widely known as a male-dominated sport. But in recent years, the audience has drastically changed – and there’s one person who deserves much of the credit: music superstar Taylor Swift, also Travis Kelce’s girlfriend.
Marissa Solis, the NFL’s senior vice president of global brand and consumer marketing, surprised many when she announced during last February’s Super Bowl that 47 percent of the league’s TV audience is now women – something that would have been unimaginable just a few years ago.

Swift bringing women to the NFL
NFL TV personalities Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson recently touched on Swift’s impact on the league and how women are now almost as interested in the sport as men.
“Our ratings are up for women, which is huge for us,” Andrews said. “What’s really cool is that women aren’t as afraid. Listen, America’s Game of the Week, which is the game I do on Sundays – the demographic is split down the middle. It’s one of the highest-rated shows for women out there, which is amazing for us.”
“But I think the casual fan doesn’t feel as afraid to watch professional sports right now – to watch the NFL – because, well, our girl Taylor helped out with that. It’s cool,” Andrews added. “We’re excited. We want casual fans, we want fans who know a lot. Listen to the podcast, watch our broadcasts – we’ll help teach you the game,” he concluded.

NBA offseason, free agency live updates: Kevin Durant traded to Rockets, news, analysis and reaction
Since the season ended, Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia has promised an organizational makeover, one built around toughness and grit. This is the start. At the 2023 trade deadline, Phoenix had acquired Kevin Durant for a package that included Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson and four unprotected future first-round picks. While the Suns didn’t come close to matching what they gave up to acquire Durant, this might have been the best they could do under the circumstances.Jalen Green is a high-scoring guard who has improved over his four NBA years. He’s explosive, athletic and dependable. He’s played all 82 games the past two seasons, and this season averaged a team-best 21 points while shooting a career-best 35.4 percent on 8.1 attempts per game. Last October, Green signed a three-year rookie extension worth $106 million.The obvious issue: The trade gives Phoenix an […]

Kevin Durant trade shows just how far Rockets have risen, Suns have fallen
In the spirit of Sam Presti turning the Rashard Lewis trade exception into Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams, let's zoom out. This past Thursday was the four-year anniversary of Kevin Durant's toe-on-the-line 2 at Barclays Center. That shot, in Game 7 of the Brooklyn Nets' second-round series against the Milwaukee Bucks, is the best -- or at least most literal -- example of the razor-thin margin between winning and losing in recent NBA history.Durant, then 32 years old, was widely considered the best player on the planet. He scored 48 points in 53 minutes in that game, four days after a 49-point, 17-rebound, 10-assist masterpiece.At the time, the Phoenix Suns were in the middle of an NBA Finals run, led by Chris Paul and Devin Booker and a strong, young supporting cast. The Houston Rockets, having traded James Harden to the […]
