He's sorry. Sorry he got caught. Then he tries to put the blame on them.
The asshole's public apology:
“While attending an NFL game last Sunday to support my beloved Philadelphia Eagles, an incident occurred that I deeply regret,” Caldwell said. “What began as banter with two Packers fans sitting near me escalated to something more serious, and I said things that were unacceptable. In the heat of the moment, I chose unforgiving words to address one of the fans, Ms. Ally Keller.
“I want to sincerely apologize to Ms. Keller for those words, and to my wife, family, and friends, my former employer and colleagues, Packer fans, Eagle fans, the Philadelphia Eagles, the City of Philadelphia, and all who were offended. That said, there are two sides to every story. The video clip circulating online does not reflect the full context of what transpired, and my actions were not without provocation. I will live with this experience, and I am certainly paying a personal price. For those who don’t know me, this incident does not reflect my values or the respect I have for others and is not indicative of the person I am.”
He didn't mention trying to provoke the dude to fight for some reason. I guess he figured that was ok.

The Houston Texans could be without their star running back when the team travels to Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday to take on the Kansas City Chiefs.
Running back Joe Mixon, who did practice during Thursday's final walkthrough, is listed as questionable for the AFC Divisional Round matchup against the defending Super Bowl champions.
On the team's injury report, Mixon was listed as out for practice, along with wide receiver Robert Woods (hip). Both were listed as questionable following Thursday's final practice.
Houston, which is trying to advance to the AFC Championship for the first time in franchise history, needs a stable ground game to combat Patrick Mahomes' and a high-tempo passing attack.
In last week's wild-card round win over the Los Angeles Chargers, Mixon became the first running back since Arian Foster in 2012 to rush for 100 yards in a playoff game. He finished with 106 yards and scored a 17-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to ice the game.
In 14 regular-season games, Mixon rushed for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns while averaging 4.4 yards per attempt. He became the sixth running back in franchise history and the first since 2019 to eclipse 1,000 yards in a single season.
"Joe did a great job there today and he doesn't do that without the way our guys block, tight ends, receivers, also the offensive line," Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said. "Like collective effort there which allowed us to run the wall the way we did."
Mixon appeared on the team’s injury report on Wednesday after an ankle issue, but was listed as a limited participant. The ankle injury has been something lingering around the Pro Bowl running back since the start of the regular season.
The 28-year-old missed three games early this season after an hip drop tackle by Chicago Bears linebacker T.J. Edwards injured his right ankle on Sept. 15. Mixon dealt with the issue during the third quarter of Week 15's win over the Miami Dolphins, but only left for a drive before returning.
As the Texans look to make history, Mixon likely will see action, even if it's limited. He was part of the 2021 Cincinnari Benglas roster to take down Mahomes in the AFC Championship Game and plans on breaking the 1-1 tie at Arrowhead Stadium.
"I’m gonna do whatever it takes on my end, and I’m sure that everybody else on the team is gonna do the same thing," Mixon said Tuesday. "Everybody has the same mindset and we just have to go out there and make some things happen."
Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. CT. The game will be nationally televised on ESPN and ABC.

I knew that once they hired Fangio that that defense would get turned around.

Jackson Mahomes, the brother of Kansas City Chiefs superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes, is like millions of other social media users who are mourning the eventual loss of TikTok.
View: https://www.tiktok.com/@jacksonmahomes/video/7459587575536389422
Jackson, who has over 1 million followers, finally broke his silence on the app when he posted for the first time in four months.
For his first post in 2025, Mahomes decided to address the impending shutdown, barring any last-minute action from the Supreme Court.
“Since the app is getting banned, I thought y’all would miss your favorite (creator) on the platform!” he captioned one of the videos.
Once that video made its way to X, formerly Twitter, he began to receive heavy backlash from social media.
“Reasons to ban TikTok: 1. This dude. 2. China. 3. This dude again,” one fan said.

“The little brother that rides on the fame of his older accomplished 3-time Super Bowl winning brother. No one cares about Jackson Mahomes and his terrible dance moves,” a second fan stated.

Jackson Mahomes made sure to keep his nose out of trouble during the 2024 season. He had no choice after what he had dealt with the season prior.
Prosecutors Dropped Three Felony Charges Against Jackson Mahomes
Mahomes was accused of grabbing a woman by her neck and forcibly kissing a woman at the restaurant in February 2023. Mahomes allegedly forcibly kissed a 40-year-old owner and shoved a 19-year-old waiter more than once, the owner and waiter told the Kansas City Star.He was charged with one count of misdemeanor battery and three counts of aggravated sexual battery.
Prosecutors in Kansas dismissed three felony charges in January 2024.
The court filing cited a lack of cooperation from the alleged victim.
Jackson Mahomes was virtually invisible throughout 2024 as a result of his actions the previous year.

I mean I’m sure they said some shit to aggravate him, but he took a big time L. It’s okay. There’s a vast market for worthless people. Especially in the world of DEI. He’ll find another job. But this altercation reflects who he is. 100%. When people get mad, they show you who they really are.
What would be the bigger upset this weekend? Texans over Queefs? Or Redskins over Lions?
I'm betting on the Texans to win and the Lions as the new Super Bowl champs.

Bigger, more unexpected would be Texas winning over KC. I would not be surprised if the walking wounded Lions lost.
I have all 4 home teams winning this weekend. Pulling for Texans and Rams to upset but think the better teams will ultimately prevail. Bills being home dogs is just disrespectful.

Weren’t the 2010 Patriots 14-2? The year we got upset by the Revis Island Rex Jets three weeks after stomping them out 45-3.
