The San Francisco 49ers are heading to the Super Bowl, setting the stage for a rematch of the 2020 NFL championship game in which the Kansas City Chiefs bested the 49ers for the win.
The San Francisco 49ers clinched their Super Bowl berth Sunday night after defeating the Detroit Lions 34-31 to win the NFC championship game at home. This will mark the 49ers first trip to the Super Bowl since they were defeated 31-20 by the Chiefs in 2020.
The NFL’s big game is set for Feb. 11 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The last time San Francisco won the Lombardi trophy was in 1995 when they beat the San Diego Chargers 49-26. The 49ers also went to the Super Bowl in 2013 but lost 34-31 to the Baltimore Ravens.

[[tmz:video id="0_1n70yct9"]] When it comes to the greatest football coach of all time, It Ain't Bill Belichick ... not even close ... so says NFL Hall of Famer Dave Robinson, who says he'll never outshine Vince Lombardi. Full disclosure ... Robinson is a Packers legend who won two Super Bowls under Coach Lombardi -- so, he may be a bit biased. But he's extremely passionate. And wait'll you hear what he says about the suggestion that the NFL should rename...

Why He’s On Our Radar: Five years in the works, the Sundance Film Festival U.S. Documentary competition contender "Cutie and the Boxer" marks the directorial debut of promising New York-based documentary filmmaker Zachary Heinzerling. The intimate and artful doc profiles Ushio and Noriko Shinohara, married Japanese artists living in New York who have been together for 40-plus years. At the film's outset, the couple is in the midst of preparing a joint exhibit. Using the event as a springboard, Heinzerling delves into their surprising back-story to reveal a piercing look at the sacrifices Noriko made in order to further Ushio's career. More About Him: Heinzerling, a University of Texas graduate, has worked on several feature-length films for HBO, including the Emmy Award-winning documentaries "Breaking the Huddle," "Assault in the Ring" and "Lombardi," as field producer and camera operator. In 2011, he participated in the...

A number of casting and production notices have come up lately and unexpectedly caught my attention. It seems to me, for starters, that a number of these celebrities are coming to Broadway for no other reason than to get themselves a Tony.
First up came the announcement that Renee Zellweger will star in a Broadway-bound adaptation of the 1961 film The Hustler. Though it has not been announced what role Ms. Zellweger will play, the choice to cast her is hard for me to wrap my brain around. To me, what that made the film so memorable were the performances of Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason. They were so strong that I don’t even remember there being a woman in the film other than in the background.
Would Zellweger take on Newman or Gleason’s role? I vaguely remember Piper Laurie playing a bit part in the film,...

Pondering topics for a column, I indulged in a thought exercise of wish fulfillment: if I had the chance to time-travel to the greatest moments in sports, when and where would I go? Inevitably, thoughts of time travel take my mind to Doctor Who, and with the imminent return of the Doctor in only ten days, I imagined sports-related destinations for the Doctor. He would not necessarily guide the Tardis to my preferred events, but without a doubt he would visit those athletic events that had some measure of intergalactic peril in the mix. Thus, I give you the untold sporting adventures of Doctor Who.
