Today's UPDATES

Three Days. Just Three Days away from Super Bowl 52, everything that happened in the 2017 NFL Season have leading up to this moment where two teams clash for the Vince Lombardi trophy. Max Sports has been keeping track on what is in stored for the big game between the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles, but let's take a step back at how they got here by learning just what they accomplished before getting to the playoffs. The Eagles finished the regular season with a record of 13–3 and were granted the NFC's number one overall seed in the playoffs. This was the season year that Doug Pederson head coached the Eagles who had finished each of the previous two seasons with identical 7–9 records. With the help of Pro Bowl Quarterback Carson Wentz, Philadelphia were at the top of the NFC after winning 10 of their first 12 games, right before they suffered a major setback on December 10, when Wentz went down with a season-ending injury and was replaced by backup quarterback Nick Foles, but that didn't stop them from making it where they are now in the Playoffs. On the other side of the field, the Patriots entered the 2017 season as defending Super Bowl champions and were favored to repeat as champions. They too finished 13-3 for the regular season and were the AFC's number one overall seed in the playoffs, they had defensive struggles earlier in the season when they were 2–2 after four weeks, and also had the worst overall defense in the league at that point. The Patriots have had to deal with losing Julian Edelman going down in the preseason with a season-ending injury, and when they loss to the Dolphins in Week 14, they were without Rob Gronkowski who was suspended one game for an unnecessary roughness call. Still, the Patriots are at the top of their game and have a chance to repeat as Super Bowl champions, so the Eagles will have to pull out everything in their arsenal in order to win their first championship. Teams in the NBA and NHL have done the same thing too when facing a new opponent every night, see how some of them fared in last night's game.

The Super Bowl will be the most-watched event this Sunday as it has been for the last fifty-one years, nobody will be changing the channel because they will be watching out for all the new commercials and movie spots. Bleacher Report posted last Monday a list of "The Best Super Bowl Commercials of All Time" and I at least know one of them from a previous Super Bowl that I watched. I fought it would be nice to share this list with the readers of #KlicKNet and let them relive the commercials that really matter because you could only see them in their greater potential on Super Bowl Sunday, so #KlicKNet presents this week's Top Ten that's all about thirty second ads that became pop cultural sensations beginning in the mid-1980s.
