#JustSoYouKnow FRiDAY 

It's the first day of February, the Super Bowl is only two days away now, and we have a Max Sports rundown on some of the players on both teams who will play this Sunday. This is going to be a really really long rundown, so we're going to break it all down in multiple parts.

The 53rd Edition of the Big Game will consist of the New England Patriots who will take on the Los Angeles Rams in a another classic game between veterans and newcomers, this one looks different because they roster on each squad is different. Most of the players on the Patriots were at a very young age when Tom Brady won his first Super Bowl Championship in 2002, and seventeen years later, they are playing with a GOAT. Brady lost one of his top receivers Brandin Cooks, in a trade to their eventual Super Bowl opponent Rams, but Julian Edelman, who had missed last season with an torn ACL injury, returned to lead the team with 74 receptions for 850 yards and 6 touchdowns, while also returning 20 punts for 154 yards. Let's not forget about other offensive Pats players such as Chris Hogan (35 receptions for 553 yards and 3 touchdowns), and Josh Gordon (40 receptions for 720 yards and three touchdowns) who ended up leaving the team to focus on his mental health after 11 games when faced with a suspension for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Rob Gronkowski has been a big factor as always fir he has added 47 receptions for 682 yards and 3 scores, even the Pats' running game has been so dynamic with rookie halfback Sony Michel, who leads the team with 931 rushing yards and 6 touchdowns, along with veteran James White who racked up 1,176 yards from scrimmage while leading the team in receptions (87) and total touchdowns (12). On defense, Trey Flowers led the team with 7.5 sacks and also forced three fumbles, Kyle Van Noy led the team in total tackles (92), while also recording 3.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and two fumble recoveries, and Duron Harmon lead the team in interceptions for the second year in a row with 4. Pro Bowl conrerback Stephon Gilmore intercepted 2 passes and forced 2 fumbles, and Patrick Chung also made an impact with 84 total tackles to go with an interception and a fumble recovery.

As for the Rams players, their offense ranked second in the NFL in both points scored (527) and yards gained (6,738). Jared Goff's top receiver Robert Woods caught 86 passes for 1,219 yards and 6 touchdowns, Brandin Cooks, an off-season pickup from New England via trade, also made a big impact with 80 receptions for 1,204 yards and 5 scores. The team's #3 receiver, Cooper Kupp, suffered a season ending injury after catching 40 passes for 566 yards in 8 games, causing player like Gerald Everett (32 receptions) and Josh Reynolds (29 receptions) to step up, and Pro Bowl running back Todd Gurley is the team's leading rusher with 1,251 yards (4th in the NFL) and 17 touchdowns, while also catching 59 passes for 580 yards and 5 more scores. Plus, Gurley led the league with 17 rushing touchdowns while his 22 total touchdowns gave him 132 points, 5th in the NFL, and C. J. Anderson has also been a key aspect of the Rams' running game, finishing the season with 405 yards and leading the team in rushing in two of their playoff victories. The Rams defense features Pro Bowl defensive tackle Aaron Donald, who led the league in sacks with 20.5, as many sacks as the rest of the team combined, and had 59 tackles (25 for loss), four forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries. Veteran Ndamukong Suh was second on the team with 4.5 sacks, while also getting 59 tackles and recovering two fumbles, Pro Bowler Cory Littleton led the team in total tackles with 125, while also picking up four sacks, three interceptions, and blocking two punts. The Rams secondary has been strong too, as it has been led by John Johnson (119 tackles and four interceptions), Marcus Peters (three interceptions), and Lamarcus Joyner (78 tackles).

Looking at all of this, it's hard enough to decide which team has both the better offense and defense, but with the Super Bowl two days away, there is not much time to make a decision. I'm gonna have to decide quickly so I know for sure that I can root for the Rams and hoped that they can keep the Patriots and Brady from winning their 6th Super Bowl Championship. As we get closer to Super Bowl, let's see what else is happening in sports such as an extended look at the sports games coming this weekend in the NBA and NHL who are trying to avoid the Big Game.

The #KlicKNet Top Ten of the Week maybe coming to an end very soon, because I am almost enrolled into college and classes are supposed to start at the very beginning of March. All week, I have going to LaGaurdia to work out the rest of my application into the school and it looks like that once I start school again, it won't be like old times, it will be different and more challenging than I ever could have imagine. As excepted, I will be off to school every weekday, Monday through Friday, so that means that this blog will look a little different in the next couple of weeks, the downsize on it is that there have been so many great topics from the internet that talking about them on daily basis seems real easy But  it's about darn time for a change in direction for #KlicKNet, and for it to continue on on Sundays and maybe on other special occasions in the week. In the meantime, here are ten topics that I have to offer in just one list, keep in mind that some of these stories have more meaning in them because the way they affect the world around us is most important.

#10: The CW renews ten of its original series yesterday during the TCA Winter press tour.

#09:  Nintendo is launching a new Dr. Mario game for every smartphone later on this year.

#08: Disneyland closes Space Mountain after riders had to jump off in the middle of the ride.

#07: Warner Bros. is planning 2021 Batman film with Ben Affleck stepping down as Batman

#06: LeBron James finally returned from injury and helped the LA Lakers in an OT Victory. 

#05: The Oscars are reportedly planning to have all five Best Song Nominees to perform.

#03: Super Bowl 53 airs LIVE this Sunday between the New England Patriots and LA Rams.

#04: Kristaps Porzingis has been traded from the New York Knicks to the Dallas Mavericks.

#03: New Jersey Senator Cory Booker has announced his intentions on a presidential run.

#02: Anthony Davis requested last Monday to be traded from the New Orleans Pelicans.

#01: The President accepted an invite from Pelsoi to have the SOTU address on Feb 5th.

This week's #JustSoYouKnow moment consists of Super Bowl Commercials, namely the new ones coming this Sunday during Super Bowl LIII. Some of us don't usually care about TV commercials, but we can always make the Super Bowl an exception, for it always have the best commercials around. The cost of a Super Bowl commercial remains even with the previous three events, with a base price slightly higher than US$5 million for a 30-second ad. In early January last month, most of the ad inventory had been sold out, with only a limited number of second-half advertisements still available. Anheuser-Busch, the beer company behind Bud Light and Budweiser, made its largest-ever advertising purchase for this year's game, with a total of eight different commercials of various length across 7 products, including three being advertised during the game for the first time. So in numbers, that covers 5-and-a-half minutes of airtime, although there will be other TV-spots that will be airing during the game and even for upcoming movies such as Avengers: Endgame, and boy I cannot imagine what Marvel Studios has in stored for us, Disney has promised a seek peak of its latest Pixar film Toy Story 4 after the Big Game, but no Star Wars Episode 9 will be on display this Sunday. I have found a video on YouTube that says "Top 10 Best Super Bowl Commercials of 2019" and they are considered to the most Funniest that you will see this Sunday, but I'll let the #KlicKNet viewers be the judge of that one.
