    Well Played: Joe Burrow’s Girlfriend Emergency, Bella Hadid the Horse Girl, and the Heisman Hate Parade
    Dec 17 2024
    Joe Burrow is the latest high-profile NFL player whose home was burglarized this season. But what should’ve been a good old fashioned burglary exploded when the internet found out that Olivia Ponton made a 911 call reporting the incident, not to be confused with Olivia Holzmacher, his college sweetheart. Caroline and Blake wonder whether JB and OG Olivia split up (his pre-season bleach job is damning evidence) and dive into a Reddit conspiracy theory about Ponton’s potential motives. In this episode of Well Played, we’ll also cover: Who’s salty over Caitlin Clark winning TIME’s “Athlete of the Year” Why the Heisman winner’s fiancée hijacked the headlines surrounding the award ceremony Bella Hadid winning the “Rookie of the Year” title in horsing around The diva player among the 49ers, why Josh Allen’s bound to be MVP, and Patrick Mahomes playing hairdresser for his wife The top athletes and moments winning “The Wellies” in our inaugural end-of-year awards segment Blake’s Instagram: @blaaakkkke Caroline’s Instagram: @cghendy theSkimm’s Instagram: @theskimm Learn more about your ad choices.
