The new private jet-inspired conspiracy about Taylor Swift – Travis Kelce, explained

Taylor Swift has her own history with private jets and her carbon footprint.

Welcome to FTW Explains, a guide to catching up on and better understanding stuff going on in the world. Are you a Taylor Swift fan, a Chiefs fan or a conspiracy theorist looking to learn more? We’re here to help.

You’ve seen a plethora of blog posts and think pieces speculating about how to define the relationship between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. But perhaps there is an additional angle to consider, so buckle up.

Even if the NFL is “overdoing it” with coverage of the relationship, odds are high that you probably haven’t thought about it from this perspective yet.

Notre Dame vs. Clemson: Weather forecast stellar for Saturday

If you’re used to November in the mid-west you’re certainly used to Halloween’s where you’ll sometimes have to put the children in snow boots to get down the block.

That won’t be the case Saturday night.  Not even close.

When the 2020 schedule was officially set for Notre Dame late this summer, the Clemson game remaining in early November probably didn’t look like a lot of fun for those from the south.

As it turns out, Saturday night will be unseasonably warm when Clemson travels to Notre Dame Stadium as the only accurate description for the forecast would be “perfect”.

If you’re used to November in the mid-west you’re certainly used to Halloween’s where you’ll sometimes have to put the children in snow boots to get down the block.

That won’t be the case Saturday night.  Not even close.

The latest weather forecast from The Weather Channel calls for a high of 69 degrees during the day and a low of 50 degrees during the night.

There is virtually no chance of rain (10%) and winds will be slight as they’re listed at 7 MPH.

If you were hoping for Notre Dame to get assistance from some colder weather this Saturday then you’ll be disappointed by this essentially perfect fall weather forecast.

WATCH: Kyle Shanahan compares home-field advantage to global warming

This was a strange comparison.

Heading into the mid-day Saturday playoff game, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan is comparing home-field advantage to global warming ahead of San Francisco (12-3) hosting the Minnesota Vikings (11-6) Saturday.

NFL teams were good on the road during the 2019 regular season. Then, three of four road teams during Wild Card weekend won, leaving home teams watching from home heading into this weekend’s Divisional Round.

So, a reporter asked Shanahan Thursday about his perspective on that and if he still believes home-field advantage exists.

“It definitely exists and it’s just random,” Shanahan said according to NBC Sports Bay Area. “It’s global warming. There’s a home-field advantage. It’s harder to play when you can’t hear. That doesn’t mean you’re going to lose. That’s just a fact. It’s harder to play on the road.”

San Francisco suffered its first loss of the season at home, and two of the team’s three total 2019 losses took place at Levi’s Stadium. A third home loss this weekend would obviously end the Niners’ season, so Shanahan is likely hoping that the effects of home-field advantage show up at kickoff.
