Why Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson Quit Playing Football

 After a promising stint playing college football, The Rock quit to pursue a career in wrestling. Why did The Rock give up on his NFL dream?


Before he became a wrestler-turned-actor, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson played professional football - now, with Young Rock season 2 set to follow The Rock's football career, many fans want to know exactly why Johnson quit playing football. As Johnson was born into a wrestling dynasty and became a household name through his role in WWE, it's all too easy to forget that the superstar had a career away from the ring. However, as Young Rock season 2 will undoubtedly show, the end of The Rock's football career was actually brought about by several unfortunate circumstances.

The Rock's career success has brought him a long way from his football career. While he's at the pinnacle of Hollywood's A-list now, Johnson's time playing football wasn't quite as successful (though still very impressive). After attending the University of Miami on a full football scholarship and playing for the Miami Hurricane's national championship team, The Rock signed with the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League.

The Rock's time in the Canadian Football League was short-lived, and he was cut just two months into the season. Instead of continuing to pursue a football career, the Rock turned to wrestling, landing himself at the WWE, which prepared The Rock to be an action movie star. Exactly why the Rock's football career ended is a combination of factors, but perhaps the biggest reason was the numerous injuries he sustained as a result of the sport. According to The Rock himself, he sustained a complete shoulder separation (requiring total reconstruction), a torn Achilles heel, and five separate knee surgeries. With so many severe injuries in just a few short years of college football, it's perhaps no wonder that The Rock decided to quit.Chuyen Ma Gan Nhà Full HD1000 Nụ Hôn Full HD1990 Full HDCHÌA KHÓA TRĂM TỶ Full HDPhố Trong Làng Tập 53-54 Full HDJack Reacher Full HDPhát Súng Cuối Cùng Full HDThanh Gươm Diệt Quỷ Phần 2 Tập 11 Full HDEuphoria Saison 2 Episode 6 Vostfr

With The Rock now becoming the superhero Black Adam, it's hard to think of him as anything less than superhuman, but some of his old teammates weren't overly impressed with his football talent. Former NFL superstar Warren Sapp played with Johnson for a period of years, and has described his football talent as "six-out-of-ten". However, Leon Searcy (also a 10-year veteran of the NFL) thought that The Rock was better than Sapp's rating, but that he instead wasn't able to shine due to the level of talent around him.

Johnson's former coach Ed Orgeron is full of praise for Johnson, though, describing him as "a hard worker and a humble young man", adding that "Everybody liked him. He was easily coachable and everybody was impressed with him". Although recently, The Rock has found his perfect superhero role in Black Adam, he's been through a few career shifts to get there. While The Rock's football career was short-lived, it wasn't entirely unsuccessful, and walking away from the sport was undoubtedly one of the best decisions Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson ever made. That said, there's no doubt that walking away wasn't entirely his own decision, given his difficulties with injuries.

‘Broken heart syndrome’ can be dangerous, sometimes fatal

 For all of us who’ve known heartache on Valentine’s Day and beyond, know this, too: “Broken heart syndrome” is real and should not be ignored.


It can lead to severe short-term heart muscle failure, according to UW Medicine, and in rare cases, it can even be fatal.

Symptoms of the syndrome, also known as stress-induced cardiomyopathy or takotsubo cardiomyopathy, can include chest pressure, palpitations and weakness, similar to a heart attack, said UW Medicine cardiologist April Stempien-Otero. “But on exam, it turns out, the arteries are normal, it’s not a heart attack, it is this takotsubo cardiomyopathy,” she said.

“Most [cases] are associated with either a personal emotional trauma or also with natural disasters,” said Stempien-Otero. “It’s totally biologic. I mean, it’s stress hormones. It is inflammation caused by those emotions in our brain.”

Powerful emotions produce chemicals and hormones in the body that can cause a part of the heart to temporarily enlarge and pump poorly while the rest of the heart functions normally or with even more forceful contractions.

Stempien-Otero sees a handful of cases ever year that are serious enough to merit treatment in the intensive care unit.

While women are more likely to experience the condition after a stressful event, Stempien-Otero has recently treated several men as well.

While symptoms can be similar to those of a heart attack, here are some key differences:

EKG (a test that records the heart’s electric activity) results don’t look the same as the EKG results for a person who has had a heart attack.
Blood tests show no signs of heart damage.
Tests show no signs of blockages in the coronary arteries.
Tests show ballooning and unusual movement of the lower left heart chamber (left ventricle).
Recovery time is quick, usually within days or weeks (compared with the recovery time of a month or more for a heart attack).
With supportive care, most patients can fully recover from symptoms within a couple of weeks, but in rare cases, ignoring the symptoms can lead to fatal heart muscle failure, she said.

“It’s very moving, taking care of these people when they have that realization that this emotional event is what caused their heart (issue),” Stempien-Otero said. “It’s just a real moment for people, of recognizing that heart-mind connection and what it can really do to us.”

Mary J. Blige wows Super Bowl halftime show in crystal-embel

 Mary J. Blige dazzled fans at the Super Bowl on Sunday evening, taking the stage in a bodysuit embellished with 10,000 Swarovski crystals.


The R&B singer performed her 2001 hits "Family Affair" and "No More Drama" wearing the white and silver outfit, as the SoFi Stadium was transformed into a California house party for a hip-hop-themed halftime show.
The look, complete with matching gloves and thigh-high boots, was custom-made by Norwegian fashion designer Peter Dundas. It featured a long-sleeve crop top with lace detailing, and was later accessorized with a silver fedora hat, which Blige wore to close the show alongside fellow performers Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, Eminem and Kendrick Lamar.

Dundas, who was creative director for Italian brand Roberto Cavalli before launching his own eponymous label in 2017, used laser-cut mirror embellishments, pearl beadwork and crystals to create a sparkling animal-print effect.

Speaking to Women's Wear Daily, Dundas said the outfit made Blige look like a "snow leopard."
"I thought (the mirrors) worked really well with Mary because she pulls so much on your heartstrings with singing about things that you kind of identify with yourself," he told the fashion publication. "She almost becomes a reflection of the audience as well."Xem phim Chuyen Ma Gan NhàXem phim 1000 Nụ HônXem phim 1990Xem phim CHÌA KHÓA TRĂM TỶ

Often dubbed the "Queen of Hip-Hop Soul," Blige not only won praise for her performance, but for her outfit -- and her boots, in particular -- on social media, with several fans declaring that she had "won" the Super Bowl.

"Mary J Blige's outfit and hair is absolutely everything I am obsessed," wrote one Twitter user, while another tweeted: "Mary J. Blige should have her own line of thigh boots at this point."
Shortly after the performance, Dundas' label announced that a virtual version of the outfit is being made available as a non-fungible token, or NFT, via the digital fashion platform DressX. Selling alongside a virtual replica of what she'll wear to the afterparties, as well as the designer's original sketches, the digital garments will allow fans to "participate and see themselves in the looks," Dundas said in a press release.

DressX founders Daria Shapovalova and Natalia Modenova said in a press statement that buyers can "try on the performance looks in augmented reality anytime and anywhere in the world -- something that could almost never be achieved in the physical world."
This is not Dundas' first time dressing the star for a major appearance, having designed the shimmery gold gown she wore to last year's Met Gala. Nor is it his first Super Bowl creation: He also custom-made the crystal-adorned red outfit from Shakira's halftime performance in 2020.

Kodak Black reportedly among 4 shot outside Super Bowl party

 Four people were shot and wounded early Saturday after a fight broke out outside a Los Angeles restaurant hosting a party that followed a Justin Bieber concert, police said.


The gunfire erupted outside The Nice Guy restaurant, striking and injuring four men ages 60, 22, 20 and 19, LAPD Officer Lizeth Lomeli said. Their names were not released, but NBC News reported rapper Kodak Black was among the wounded.

Officers who responded to the scene found two victims. Paramedics took them to the hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, police said in an updated statement Saturday afternoon.Scream streamingVox Machina streaming , Les Éternels streaming355 streamingSpider-Man: No Way Home streaming

Two additional victims went to hospitals on their own, according to the statement. All four victims were listed in stable condition.

Detectives asked witnesses to come forward to help them identify the gunman.

Videos posted on TMZ.com and on social media show Black posing for photos with a group of people outside the restaurant when the brawl broke out. Black is among several people involved in the brawl when shots rang out, sending everyone at the scene running for cover.

Law enforcement sources told NBC News that Black, whose legal name is Bill Kapri, was among the people shot and injured. A message to his publicist at Atlantic Records has not been returned.

The party followed Bieber's private concert at the Pacific Design Center in West Hollywood, California as part of a Super Bowl-week party dubbed “Homecoming Weekend.” The guests at the star-studded event included Jeff Bezos, his girlfriend TV host Lauren Sánchez, “Hamilton” actor Anthony Ramos and NFL Hall-of-Famer Tony Gonzalez.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that Bieber and his wife Hailey Baldwin, Drake, Khloe Kardashian and Tobey Maguire were also among the celebrities seen entering the afterparty.

Here's how Katie Uhlaender finished in skeleton at her 5th Olympics

 The slider from Breckenridge is one of four Americans who have been competing at Winter Olympics since the 2006 Torino Games.


Colorado native Katie Uhlaender – who broke U.S. records with her fifth Winter Olympics appearance in Beijing – finished off the podium in women's skeleton on Saturday.

Uhlaender, 37, of Breckenridge, scored a total of 4:09.23 over four runs to finish in sixth. The gold medal went to Hannah Neise of Germany, followed by Jaclyn Narracott of Australia with silver and Kimberley Bos of Netherlands with bronze.Phim Rừng thế mạng FullPhim Mưu Kế Thượng Lưu FullPhim Đấu trường âm nhạc 2 FullPhim Nhà Không Bán FullPhim Án Mạng Trên Sông Nile Full

A strong fourth run of 1:02.21 – her best of this Olympics – briefly made Uhlaender the slider to beat, until Canada's Mirela Rahneva bumped her from the top of the leaderboard.

She started her Olympics journey in 2006 in Torino, and she has represented the United States in skeleton at every Winter Olympics since.

She's one of four Team USA members in Beijing who qualified for their fifth Olympics, an exclusive group that also includes snowboarders Shaun White and Lindsey Jacobellis and curler John Shuster.

Other titles that she earned with this year’s Olympics: She tied the record for the U.S. woman with the most Olympic appearances and was the only U.S. woman in any sliding sport to compete at five Games.Phim Encanto: Vùng đất thần kỳ FullXem Phim Chìa Khoá Trăm Tỷ FullXem Phim Chuyện ma gần nhà FullXem Phim Người Nhện: Không Còn Nhà FullXem Phim Kingsman 3 Full

Her best Olympic finish was fourth in Sochi in 2014. She’s also a World Championships gold medalist, in 2012 at Lake Placid.

Uhlaender started competing in skeleton in 2004 and also loves to ski, snowboard and kite board. After her sliding career, she wants to become a producer or writer, according to her Team USA biography.

The United States sent its smallest skeleton team since the sport was re-introduced in 2002. In addition to Uhlaender, Kelly Curtis and Andrew Blaser will slide for the United States.

Murderville episodes in order: from smile to laugh

 Murderville , the latest improv series on Netflix in which Will Arnett always takes a celebrity under his wing, has been on the streaming service for a week now.


When writing down a possible review, it soon became clear that it is difficult to put a number on it. A review of Murderville quickly morphed into a review of the concept and to be honest I'm just a really big fan. The sincere reactions and ignorance to keep the face serene, invariably makes me smile. Which guest was the best? Time for a strong piece of pseudoscience!

“How did you rate the different guests?” you ask me with a frown. Very glad you asked me. There are several parameters that I took into account. First, did they go along with the story? Second, how well they could improvise. Last, and most importantly, how hard did I laugh? Because that's the most important thing right now. What a seasoned marketer without any irony in the voice would call a Northstar metric . If we add them all up, we get a nice picture of the first season. Let's start with.Tall Girl 2 StreamingMY HERO ACADEMIA - WORLD HEROES' MISSION StreamingÀ travers ma fenêtre StreamingInventing Anna StreamingLazarus Effect Streaming

Annie Murphy
At the bottom of the list we find the actress known for Schitt's Creek . It soon proved difficult for her to keep track of all the details. More than the other guests, she seemed to be looking for guidance from Will Arnett. Not immediately knowing what to do, what said. Don't get me wrong though: even this episode has a hilarious part on the 3rd suspect. But even there I was still hungry in the field of improvisation.

Ken Jeong
Ken quickly went along with the energy and rhythm of Will Arnett but completely lost himself in the absurdity of the whole. It is clear that he was having a lot of fun, but the many laughs meant that we as viewers never really got a feel for the situations. Having to carry the last episode of the season turned out to be a tough assignment for him. A shame, since it was the most important story for Seattle, the character of Will Arnett.

Sharon Stone
Sharon scores surprisingly well when it comes to improvisation, with an absolute highlight when she just briefly plays an entire scene with a German accent. She is difficult to lose weight, knew very quickly to pick up and respond to the actors. A pleasure to watch. The fact that she's in fourth place says more about the other celebrities than it does about her.Bigbug StreamingThe Hating Game StreamingUncharted StreamingDeath Note StreamingLes Vedettes Streaming

Conan O'Brien
Conan breathes comedy and improv talent so it was no surprise that this one would end up in the top 3. When I saw in the trailer that he was one of the guests, my expectations were high. Maybe a little too high? I sometimes felt that Conan was hitting the limits of what is possible within the concept. The man is at his best when he gets into a stream of thoughts and emphasizes the absurdity. He just couldn't do the latter without compromising the concept. The next time I put too much spicy sauce on my food, I'll consider myself lucky that I don't have to question anyone.

Marshawn Lynch
The quarterback was a noble stranger to me but really convinced me within the first fifteen minutes. Not only did he throw himself into the various scenes with great pleasure, he added an element of his own. The call for a name change to Detective Bagabitch and the conversation that followed was top notch. Wonderful surprise.

Kumail Nanjiani
Kumail stands head and shoulders above all the rest in my opinion. It's a mystery to me whether it was mainly the story or his improvisation. Whatever the case may be, it has produced hilarious moments. I still have a big smile when I think of his walks, the earnestness with which he challenged Will to impersonate a non-racist Pakistani. It was one funny moment after another. That's why I can't help but crown Nanjiani as the absolute winner of Murderville (so far).

Inventing Anna: A Guide to the Familiar Faces from Shondaland

There’s no denying that television auteur and mega producer Shonda Rhimes has her own cinematic universe. From Grey’s Anatomy to Scandal to How To Get Away with Murder, Rhimes is behind franchises that have seen hundreds if not thousands of actors pass through their gates. Her production company is called Shondaland for a reason; it’s a whole world unto itself.

As such, it’s no surprise that many familiar faces pop up in Rhimes’s latest venture, Inventing Anna, now streaming on Netflix. The series, which Vanity Fair calls a true crime-style Bold Type, follows the exploits of Anna Delvey, the Russian-born would be socialite who conned Manhattan’s wealthy elite and made them believe she was a German heiress—stealing from them all the while.

To capture the rise and fall of Delvey, played by Julia Garner, Rhymes has employed some old friends from previous Shondaland productions. Here's a handy little guide to who made the cut.

Kate Burton (Nora)
Real Shondaland fans will instantly recognize Kate Burton as Nora, an Upper East Side lady who lunches and one of the first to fall prey to the woman calling herself Miss Delvey. Burton burst into the Shonda-sphere in 2005 as Dr. Ellis Grey, the brilliant and troubled mother to Grey’s Anatomy namesake Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), and still makes the occasional guest appearance on ABC’s long-running soap. She also starred as conservative Vice President turned political talk show host Sally Langston on Rhimes’s other long-running ABC show, Scandal, wreaking havoc in Washington from 2012 to 2018. Speaking of female vice presidents: Burton also had a recurring role as Barbara Hallowes, the miserable U.S. senator from Nevada, on Veep, also featuring none other than Inventing Anna star Anna Chlumsky.

Jeff Perry (Lou)
Viewers might know Jeff Perry—who plays Vivian’s colleague Lou in Inventing Anna—as Meredith’s absentee father Thatcher Grey, popping in rather infrequently on Grey’s Anatomy from 2006 to 2019. But Perry’s most significant role in the Shonda-verse was as Cyrus Beene, the duplicitous, manipulative political animal and chief of staff to Fitz (Tony Goldwyn) on Scandal, from 2012 to 2018. If only Ellen Pompeo guest starred as a wealthy divorcee whom Delvey takes financial advantage of, Inventing Anna could have been a veritable Grey family reunion.

Katie Lowes (Rachel)
There’s a healthy dose of Scandal making their way from D.C. to NYC to get scammed by Anna Delvey. Katie Lowes, who portrayed gladiator Quinn Perkins on Scandal, stars on Inventing Anna as Rachel Deloache-Williams, the former Vanity Fair photo editor and close gal pal of Delvey’s, who accompanies the fake German heiress on a trip to Morocco with devastating consequences. Scandal was not Lowe’s first foray into Shondaland, as she played the memorable role of “Blood Donor” in an episode of Grey’s Anatomy in 2011. She must have made an impression: she started playing Quinn Perkins in 2012, and went on to star in Rhimes’s short lived web-series Scandal spinoff, Scandal: Gladiator Wanted. Shondaland, it seems, is a lot like the Olive Garden: once you’re in, you’re family.

Anna Deveare Smith (Maud)
Manhattan magazine’s “Scriberia” is chock full of former Shondaland stars, like playwright and actress Anna Deveare Smith. Smith starred on Shonda’s short-lived ABC legal drama For The People on ABC, where she played U.S. District Court Clerk Tina Krissman. While the veteran actress hasn’t appeared on any other of Rhimes’s shows, she’s an accomplished playwright whose 1992 play Twilight: Los Angeles was recently revived Off-Broadway. Like her Inventing Anna journalist Maud, Smith clearly has the gift for the pen.

Ben Rappaport (Billy McFarland)
Anna Delvey isn’t the only scammer featured on Inventing Anna. Ben Rappaport plays Fyre Festival fraudster Billy McFarland, lending Delvey a crash pad when she’s in between luxury hotels. Rappaport has previous ties to both Rhimes and Garner, starring as Seth Oliver on For The People and recurring as Josh Silverberg on Garner’s Emmy-winning Netflix series Ozark. Between Ozark and Inventing Anna, Garner and Rappaport must have a great rapport.

Marika Dominczyk (Talia)
Dominczyk is only featured in one episode of Inventing Anna, but makes quite the impression as Talia, a self-made millionairess who briefly takes Anna under her wing. Shondaland fans will fondly remember Dominczyk from her year-long stint on Grey’s Anatomy as Dr. Eliza Minnick, love interest to chief of pediatrics Dr. Arizona Robbins (Jessica Capshaw). Although Eliza and Arizona were not meant to be together, Dominczyk found real life love in Shondaland: she’s married to Scott Foley who famously played B16 operative Jake Ballard on Scandal. In Shondaland, love conquers all.
