For a brief moment, it looked like an all-time heads-up decision by Travis Kelce was going to give the Kansas City Chiefs a thrilling go-ahead touchdown in their showdown with the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon. And then, a penalty against the teammate who scored the touchdown negated the score, which led to a series of events that culminated in Buffalo walking out of Kansas City with a 20-17 win.

Facing a second-and-10 from near midfield with just under 90 seconds left, Patrick Mahomes dropped back and hit his All-Pro tight end over the middle of the field. Kelce rumbled towards the end zone, and as the Bills defenders surrounded him, he saw Kadarius Toney with no one near him. He’s tried laterals in the open field before, and this one could not have gone any more perfectly, as Kelce threw a dime to Toney and let him walk into the end zone.

But there was a flag on the play, and ironically enough, it was on Toney. Kansas City went hurry up on the play before this, and as you can see, Toney narrowly lined up offsides, leading to a flag that negated the play.

After the penalty, Mahomes threw three straight incompletions en route to a turnover on downs. From there, Josh Allen was able to kneel it out to help Buffalo move to 7-6 on the season.

There are levels to being mystique. In the basement, you have secretive. Then, the British music collective Sault-type of cloaking is at the top level. Yesterday (December 9), the “Out Of Lies” musicians hinted that they are itching to break out of their reclusive shells with the hopes of connecting with their fans.

Thanks to a cryptic teaser video uploaded to Sault’s official Instagram page, the group revealed general information about their forthcoming debut live show and possibly concert plans for 2024. In a flash, the screen shows that Sault has intentions to share their latest five albums with audiences around the world. The message reads: “Album 5 (New York). Album Nine (London). Album Black is (LA). Album Untitled Rise (Canada). Album 11 (Germany). Album Air (Paris). Album Earth (Africa).”

As far as the order of appearance goes, it appears their next project, supposedly titled Acts of Faith, will kick things off with a performance in London on December 14. At this time, a location hasn’t been announced. But according to the group, more information, including ticket sales, will begin on Monday, December 11.

Back in November, Sault promised an inaugural performance for their supporters, and based on these posts, they are sticking to their goal.

Emotions tend to run high in games involving divisional rivals, and during the fourth quarter of Sunday afternoon’s game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks, those emotions boiled over and led to D.K. Metcalf’s afternoon coming to a premature end. Seattle faced a fourth-and-13 on the Niners’ side of midfield while trailing by 12, and because there was less than 3:30 left in the game, the Seahawks decided to go for it.

Drew Lock dropped back and threw up a duck, which Fred Warner was able to pick off. For some reason, Warner decided to pitch the ball to Dre Greenlaw instead of just going down, and while Greenlaw started his return, Metcalf hit Warner with a German suplex. Warner responded by shoving Metcalf while he was down, which led to Metcalf getting up and grabbing Warner by the facemask.

You can see a little of what happened there in that first video, but here’s a better view of things.

Warner’s shove obviously isn’t great, but between his tackle and the grabbing of an opponent’s facemask like that, Metcalf saw his day come to a premature end. He wasn’t the only person who got tossed, though, as Niners defensive back Deommodore Lenoir was also ejected.

This week was supposed to be a biggie: Donald Trump was supposed to return to the witness stand. The former president was scheduled to once again appear in court for one of his many cases, this one for the New York fraud trial. The last time he took the stand, it, uh, did not go well for him, despite what he said. But those hoping for a sequel are in for a rude awakening: On Sunday Trump revealed he was skipping his appearance, and in the most chill way possible. (Joke. It was an all-caps two-parter.)

“AS EVERYONE KNOWS, I HAVE VERY SUCCESSFULLY & CONCLUSIVELY TESTIFIED IN THE CORRUPT, BIDEN DIRECTED, NEW YORK STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL’S RIGGED TRIAL AGAINST ME,” Trump spewed. “WORLD RENOWNED EXPERTS, HIGHLY RESPECTED BANK & INSURANCE EXECUTIVES, REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS, AS WELL AS OTHERS, BOTH HONEST & CREDIBLE, HAVE STATED, CLEARLY & UNEQUIVOCALLY, THAT I, & MY VERY SUCCESSFUL COMPANY, DID NOTHING WRONG!”

Trump also cited the testimony of Eli Bartov, an accounting professor who also testified in the case — and was handsomely rewarded for it, too.

“A TOP PROFESSOR FROM NYU STERN SAID, ‘IF MR. TRUMP WERE MY STUDENT, HE WOULD GET AN ‘A’ ON HIS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. IV’E NEVER SEEN A STATEMENT THAT PROVIDED SO MUCH DETAIL, & IS SO TRANSPARENT, AS THESE STATEMENTS,’” he wrote.

Trump concluded that based on his previous testimony, he has “NOTHING MORE TO SAY OTHER THAN THAT THIS IS A COMPLETE & TOTAL ELECTION INTERFERENCE (BIDEN CAMPAIGN!) WITCH HUNT.” He also claimed that the case will “”DO NOTHING BUT KEEP BUSINESSES OUT OF NEW YORK.”

As such, Trump said he “WILL NOT BE TESTIFYING ON MONDAY.”

So there. What will Trump with his newly freed-up time? Maybe he can devote that to planning that dictatorship he promised to enact last week.

Offset and his wife Cardi B’s recently unfollowed each other on Instagram, sparking breakup rumors. Still, nothing about the pair has been confirmed. But Offset did address another, somewhat related rumor. On Sunday, December 10, Blueface, who has collaborated with Cardi B before, accused Offset of sleeping with Chrisean Rock, his reality star ex-girlfriend and mother of his youngest child.

“Being tatted on a home is not a flex. You literally f*cked Cardi B’s husband a couple of weeks ago,” Blueface charged. “I’m tired of n****s looking at me while they f*cking you. Get the rest of ’em gone asap, please .”

Offset replied, “I ain’t never talk or touch that lady. Real talk, man, you need some help!”

This isn’t the first time Blueface accused someone of sleeping with Chrisean. After Lil Baby gave support to Chrisean in her upcoming rap career, Blueface accused him of being romantically linked to her. It’s a claim they both deny.

Cardi B is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Bronny James is officially back. During Sunday afternoon’s game between the USC Trojans and Long Beach State 49ers, James was able to take the floor for the first time since he went into cardiac arrest during an offseason practice.

The game took place at the Galen Center, where USC plays its home games, and unsurprisingly, James’ family was in attendance and sitting courtside — his dad, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, made clear that he would be in attendance for Bronny’s first game no matter when it came. And with just under 13 minutes left in the first half, LeBron and the rest of the arena got to watch as Bronny headed to the scorers table and checked in for the first time as a Trojan.

And not long after, he put forth a highlight that we’ve seen his old man do time and time again. Following a turnover, a Long Beach State player looked like he was going to get a layup, but Bronny came flying in for a chasedown block.

Bronny’s medical incident occurred back in July, and fortunately, all indications were that he was doing well in the immediate aftermath of the event. A little more than two months later, LeBron indicated that the plan was for Bronny to play at some point during the 2023-24 college basketball season, and at the end of November, he was given the green light for a full return.

As Doja Cat makes her way around the country with special guests Doechii and Ice Spice, she’s winning over skeptics online and in person. Unfortunately, she’s hit a snag. On Saturday, December 9, Nicki Minaj decided to celebrate the release of her long-awaited album Pink Friday 2 virtually with fans. Usually, Nicki would head over to Queen Radio for the informal chat, but with that no longer an option, she turned to online broadcaster Stationhead.

Barbz wanted to glimpse into Nicki’s mind during the stream as they asked about collaborators on the body of work. But when one viewer suggested Nicki link back up with Doja Cat, she revealed that she already tried.

According to Nicki, Doja passed on the opportunity to join forces again on her album. “She passed on it. She said she don’t think I like her,” she said. “I guess our record-breaking No. 1 wasn’t proof.” Fans now believe Doja Cat was originally supposed to appear on Nicki’s song “Cowgirl.” Currently, Lourdiz is the featured artist on the song.

However, while performing in Omaha, Nebraska, Doja Cat showed her support, screaming, “Thank you, Nicki, I love you! Pink Friday 2!” So, people online are confused: Is there a silent feud going on between Doja Cat and Nicki Minaj?

One of the more entertaining games during Sunday’s early window of NFL action happened in Baltimore, where the Ravens played host to the Los Angeles Rams. It was a tight game throughout, and during the fourth quarter, Los Angeles found itself down by one point, 23-22.

The team was able to march down the field and score, thanks in part to a catch of the year contender by their breakout star, Puka Nacua. Facing a first-and-10 from Baltimore’s 43 yard line, Matthew Stafford faked a handoff before dropping back and looking down the field. He saw a very small window that he could throw into, so he let it rip and left it to Nacua to do the rest. The fifth-round pick out of BYU did the rest, as he completely laid out to reel in the pass and pick up a first down.

Here it is from another angle, which shows that Nacua had to go completely horizontal and reach as far as he could to make sure this ball didn’t hit the ground.

You may not see a better catch in the NFL this season, and fortunately for the Rams, this did not go to waste, as the team was able to get into the end zone a few plays later.

In the United States, close to 10% of the population has depression, but sometimes it can take a long time for someone to even understand that they have it.

One difficulty in diagnosis is trying to distinguish between feeling down and experiencing clinical depression. This TED-Ed video from December 2015 can help make the distinction. With simple animation, the video explains how clinical depression lasts longer than two weeks with a range of symptoms that can include changes in appetite, poor concentration, restlessness, sleep disorders (either too much or too little), and suicidal ideation. The video briefly discusses the neuroscience behind the illness, outlines treatments, and offers advice on how you can help a friend or loved one who may have depression.

Unlike the many pharmaceutical ads out there with their cute mascots and vague symptoms, the video uses animation to provide clarity about the mental disorder. It’s similar in its poignant simplicity to the HBO short documentary “My Depression,” based on Liz Swados’ book of the same name.
