Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid and the rest of the Kansas City Chiefs keep finding ways to win games and have the best record on the 2024 NFL season (12-1).
The team is looking to achieve something that has never been done before: win three Super Bowls in a row. So far, so good.
That’s why some people wonder if the Chiefs have some kind of champion luck or just straight up divine help. One of the believers is Travis’ older brother and former NFL player Jason Kelce. On their very popular podcast “New Heights”, the brothers discussed the issue thanks to a question from one of his audience members.
The question was: “If you could have been on any team from kids movies or tv shows, which would it be and why?”
The Kelces talked about some classics like “The Sandlot”,“Space Jam”, and ultimately Travis said that he would have loved to be part of the California Angels squad from “Angels in the Outfield”, a very popular 1994 movie.
“Dude, I kinda feel like you guys are the angels in the outfield this year,” replied Jason Kelce. “There’s some unknown like,” added the ESPN commentator. “Here you go with this Tay-Voodoo s*** again.” Travis replied while he laughed.
“Tayvoodo” was coined by Taylor Swift’s (Travis girlfriend) fan base, who hypothesize that those who have slighted the pop megastar have subsequently been punished with misfortune. Fans have also credited “Tayvoodoo” with the Chiefs‘ NFL wins. (Kansas City won Super Bowl LVIII in February.)
“Angels in the Outfield” is a fun 90’s movie. The plot is about an 11-year-old boy named Roger who prays for help to resurrect a last-place baseball team,the California Angels. A band of fun-loving angels answers the call. The movie includes the very talented actors Danny Glover, Christopher Lloyd; Matthew McConaughey and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Jason Kelce talks about “Space Jam”
Jason Kelce also talked about one of his favorite kids movies: “Space Jam”, the monster hit led by the GOAT Michael Jordan vs. a group of aliens that steal the talents of some very good NBA players including Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, Shawn Bradley, Larry Johnson and Mugsy Bogues).
Surprisingly so, Jason said that he would be on the villain’s team and not on the heroe’s team, which included Jordan, Bugs Bunny, Lola Bunny, Tweety, Daffy Duck and the rest of the beloved Looney Tunes characters.
“I might go Monstars (…) I would steal Shaquille O’neal’s talent, that’s right. Who the f*** is stopping me with Shaquille O’Neal’s talent?” said Jason.
“I don’t know, Greg Popovich (San Antonio Spurs head coach)? I don’t know, Tim Duncan (Spurs legend)?” Travies replied.
