On Day 7 of Black History Month we recognize seven pro football players from Brooklyn.
Super Bowl 50 is finally here! The anticipated game takes place today at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, home of the San Francisco 49ers. The question on everyone’s mind is, who will take home the trophy – Denver Broncos or Carolina Panthers?
OurBKSocial decided to keep this blog very short. We know you have a Super Bowl party to prepare for or attend. The pre-game show is only hours away and kickoff is at 6:30 P.M. EST. You don’t want to miss any of the awesome Super Bowl commercials, and you definitely must see every second of Beyoncé and Coldplay’s epic halftime performance in flawless formation.
We know you have questions to debate. Will Denver win their third Super Bowl title tonight? Will the Panthers show no mercy? Who will make the best plays? Will Peyton Manning go out a winner? Will Cam Newton chant, “watch out” while dancing to touchdown after touchdown? Who will be MVP? May the best team win in double overtime!
