After five years of trying to shut down McVay's offense two or three times per season for the Seattle Seahawks, Wagner is now making the Los Angeles Rams better.

"His energy has been crazy. We’ve been in constant communication, even in the offseason. Reaching out, just checking in and stuff like that. It’s been cool. These last couple of months, being able to be coached by him has been a blessing for sure.” The Rams signed the 32-year-old Wagner to be the game-changing inside linebacker they’ve decidedly lacked in recent … [Read more...] about Second chapter: Bobby Wagner already makes impact on LA Rams

“Playas Gon’ Play”: How 3LW song compares to Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off”
Taylor Swift recently hit headlines for claiming that she had never heard of early aughts girl group 3LW before she was accused of plagiarizing one of their tracks for her 2014 mega hit "Shake It Off." The case was initially brought in 2017 by Sean Hall and Nathan Butler, who wrote "Playas Gon' Play," the single that they accuse Swift of copying from lyrically.
