LA Rams defeat Cincinnati Bengals to win Super Bowl 2022

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — They were built for this, desperate for this and assembled for this, an unprecedented urgency attached to a season that could be judged a success with only one possible outcome: Win it all.

Anything less than everything would mean nothing to the Rams. They mortgaged their future for the present and that present looked bleak Sunday night, when they trailed the Bengals late in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl 56.

A drive to win or abject failure.

Matthew Stafford hung tough and orchestrated a mammoth 15-play, 79-yard drive. Eli Apple, the former Giants first-round pick, was called for holding when he grabbed Cooper Kupp’s jersey, putting the Rams on the 1-yard line. Liking what they saw, the Rams went that way again, and Stafford had no trouble lofting the ball to Kupp in the end zone, with Apple in coverage and never reacting to the pass.

The touchdown put the Rams ahead with 1:25 remaining. Stafford hung tough on the drive that took 4:48 off the clock. When Aaron Donald hit Joe Burrow with 39 seconds remaining, it was over, and the Rams secured a stirring 23-20 victory on their own SoFi Stadium turf.

Snoop Dogg Now Owns Death Row’s Music Catalog — With Some Exceptions

Earlier this month, it was reported that Snoop Dogg had acquired Death Row Records’ brand , but was still hammering out negotiations for the accompanying catalog. Today, Billboard reports that he’s officially completed those negotiations and now owns the masters for both of his albums under the label, Doggystyle and The Doggfather , as well as those for his 213 associates Daz Dillinger and Kurupt, along with Lady of Rage and the compilations and soundtracks Death Row released throughout the ’90s. The terms of the deal were not disclosed. However, that impressive collection of music does not include a few of the most well-known Death Row releases . Dr. Dre’s The Chronic is set to be returned to Snoop’s longtime collaborator sometime next year (August at the latest), while Tupac Shakur’s seminal classic All Eyez On Me and The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory (as Makavelli) have already reverted to Amaru Entertainment and the Tupac estate.
