February 4th. The New England Patriots versus the Philadelphia Eagles. The New England Patriots are looking to win their sixth, while the Eagles hope to make it their first victory at the Super Bowl. If you are anything like me, you are a die-hard Patriots fan. If you are any way conflicted as to who to pull for, here are just a few reason you should pull for the Patriots.

1.Tom Brady

Some call him Tom Brady others call him the goat, but no matter what you call him he is the NFL’S best quarterback. Just this year in the regular season, he has thrown 32 touchdowns. I could go on and on about Brady’s statistics, but just trust me, you want Brady throwing the ball.

2. The comebacks

Super Bowl 51 is a prime example of how a pressured team can come back and win it all. The game was 28-3, and the Falcons fans were beginning to get a little taste of victory until the Patriots came back from a 25 point deficit. Which leads me to reason number three.

3. Danny.Playoff. Amendola

Need I say anymore. The player knows how to work the ball in postseason playoff games. He definitely lived up to his nickname in the most recent games against the Tennessee Titans and Jacksonville Jaguars.

4. Gronkowski and his notorious spike

Throw the ball to Gronk, and he’ll easily put six points on the board, but only by celebrating with spiking the ball in the end zone.

5. Bill Belichick

A man of very few emotions, but many coaching victories is how some would describe him. Although he does not show much emotion during games, he knows how to win them. Since coaching the Patriots in 2000, he has coached the Patriots to five Super Bowl wins and 8 AFC winning championship games.

6. Gillette Stadium in Foxborough


Although I have never been to Massachusetts, it is on my bucket list to go and see a Patriots game in Gillette Stadium. I can only imagine the home team atmosphere of the stadium awaiting the arrival of the players that will make history.

7. If you love America, you should love the Patriots

Patriots were men that showed support and love for their country. In the American Revolution, the patriots rebelled against the British and eventually declared independence from British control. Patriots have a historical background, and that is just another reason to pull for the Patriots in the Super Bowl (instead of the eagles).

I hope this list somewhat convinced you to pull for the New England Patriots in Super Bowl 52. No matter what happens, I will always love my Patriots, in the meantime, I’ll be celebrating out AFC Championship and preparing my Super Bowl dips! Go Pats!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
