PA McDonald's Workers Messed Up Jason Kelce's Order Amid Pandemonium, He Says Two sausage egg and cheese McMuffins and a hot coffee. That's Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce's order every time he goes to McDonald's. Specifically, the McDonald's in Broomall. Well, last week, the employees — who Kelce says he adores — got his order wrong in the midst of a moment that went viral: When Kelce signed the Kelly green jersey of employee, and diehard fan, Danielle Bonham. "They messed order up in the pandemonium of the moment," Kelce said on Wednesday's episode of his podcast New Heights with his brother, Travis Kelce.  When Kelce pulled up to pickup window,…

Sean Stellato Makes 11-Year-Old Boy's Day, Stops For Photo On NJ Street Two weeks ago, Sean Stellato was almost the most-hated man in New Jersey. If you recall, he was scorned across the Garden State for doubling Tommy DeVito's meet-and-greet fees just before an event at a Morristown pizzeria. But Stellato is apparently working his way back into the good graces of NY Giants fans. And on Tuesday, Jan. 2, he won two of them back. The NFL agent was on Lafayette Avenue in Hawthorne when Robin Johnson spotted him on the way to the movies with her 11-year-old son, Christopher Reindeau.  The boy approached him and politely asked for a photo, she said.

DeVito Era Over? Eagles Win With Tommy Cutlets Benched Have Tommy DeVito's glory days come to an end? The undrafted quarterback who's been starting for Big Blue was sent to the bench on Monday night's Christmas Day game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Heartbreak In The Ring: WWE Star Rips Up Young Fan's Sign At Allentown Event (Video) Okay, so it was a bit extreme. A WWE superstar left one of her fans heartbroken (yet still awestruck) during a live match in Allentown earlier this month. The fan was holding a sign that said "Bayley Is Hot" during her Dec. 2 match against SmackDown star Shotzi, at the PPL Center. Bayley, whose whole act is pretending to be mean, went over to the boy, took the sign, and brought it to the ring. Then, she ripped it up. The 25-second clip was posted to X by @Jay_Waffles26, who captioned it: "Hey @itsBayleyWWE, you broke his heart (all within a 25 second video)." Hey @itsBayley…

Naval Academy Runs Football Through NJ On 463-Mile Trek To Army-Navy Game In New England It’s fitting that a group of marathoners from the U.S. Naval Academy are running a game ball all the way up to the home of the New England Patriots for this weekend’s grudge match with the U.S. Military Academy. There’ll be plenty of rushing and relatively few passes from both sides in the 124th Army-Navy football game at Gilette Stadium in Foxborough, MA, on Saturday, Dec. 9. The USNA marathoners shoved off from Bancroft Hall on their campus in Annapolis, MD on Tuesday, beginning a traditional dash that dates back to the 1980s.

MetLife Worst, Lincoln Financial Among Best Stadiums To Play: NFL Players "If you build it, they will come." At least, that's what Ray Kisella said in "Field of Dreams." But many NFL players would rather not when it comes to NFC East locales, according to a new poll by The Athletic. The anonymous survey of NFL players led to some dubious results for the New York Giants (and Jets) and Washington Commanders, whose stadiums were found to be among the worst to play in. Out of 79 responses, MetLife Stadium (18.4 percent) was overwhelmingly voted the worst stadium to play in by NFL followed right behind by FedEx Field (13.9 percent).  Highmark Stadium (12.7 per…
