TV characters have given us some memorable dance moves over the years, long before TikTok influencers cornered the market.

If your mind didn’t immediately jump to the CW’s One Tree Hill upon seeing Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift celebrating the Chiefs’ AFC championship crown on Sunday, you’d be forgiven — but for many people the scene caused some serious déjà vu and flashbacks to the popular teen CW drama that ran from  2003 to […]

The Bills last matchup with the Chiefs, in Week 14, ended with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid complaining incessantly about being flagged for a legitimate and rather obvious offsides penalty.
