Bears quarterback Caleb Williams on Packers fans: 'They suck'
If Caleb Williams thought he got a rude welcome to Lambeau Field in his rookie season just wait until Year 2. But the Chicago Bears quarterback, at least at the moment in the offseason, he's more than willing to dish out the smack talk, something he might be learning from his new head coach Ben Johnson. Advertisement In his appearance at Fanatics Fest in New York City this week, Williams appeared to be asked about which fan bases he doesn't like or to discus his worst experience with NFL fans. "Probably Green Bay," Williams said. "They suck." Then he reminded everyone in attendance that the Bears defeated the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field in the season finale last year before going into a story about trying a Lambeau Leap. "After the game, after we won at Lambeau," Williams said, with a smile. "1-0 at Lambeau," he added again. Williams noted that after the game when he and his teammates attempted a Lambeau Leap where some Bears fans were situated, Packers fans tried to prevent it by "throwing everything at you," and they "push you off."

It's not a little baby jump, you actually have to high jump, basically." But he found it difficult to do since he said Packers fans were "pushing your face." Well, saying they "suck" won't help matters the next time he steps onto Lambeau Field or if he thinks about trying another Lambeau Leap. This isn't the first time that Williams has used that word with "Green Bay." Around this time last year before he even played an NFL snap, Williams was at a restaurant in Chicago's Wrigleyville and joined in on a "Green Bay sucks" chant. Packers schedule 2025 Packers fans probably already have the game circled on their calendars. But just in case you don't, the Packers welcome Williams and the Bears to Lambeau Field on Sunday, Dec. 7. Advertisement It's a noon kickoff. Two weeks later, the Packers play the Bears again down at Soldier Field in a game on Saturday, Dec. 20. The Packers haven't lost to the Bears on the road since Dec. 16, 2018.

The Packers and Bears split their two-game series in 2024 with both games coming down to a last-second field goal. The Packers' Karl Brooks saved the day when he blocked Cairo Santos' potential game-winning field goal in the closing seconds to secure Green Bay's 20-19 win in Week 11 Nov. 17. Advertisement But Santos got revenge after he drilled a 51-yard game-winning field goal through the uprights as time expired at Lambeau Field in Week 18 to give the Bears a 24-22 victory. It snapped the Bears' 10-game season losing streak and their 11-game losing streak overall to the Packers. The loss was the Packers' first to the Bears at Lambeau Field since the 2015 season.

Gisele Bündchen flaunts stunning post-baby body during Florida outing
Gisele Bündchen is putting her figure on display just a few months after welcoming her third child. Last weekend, Bündchen was spotted during a paddleboarding session off the coast of Surfside, Florida. The model was wearing a white one-piece bathing suit with a brown visor and large sunglasses. Bündchen had a smile on her face in some of the photos as she glided through the water. Bündchen's outing comes after she gave birth to her first child with jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente in February. The duo's romance began after her divorce from NFL legend Tom Brady in 2022. Speaking with Vogue France, Bündchen admitted that her life looks a little different with a new baby. "Getting my hair and makeup done feels like I'm on vacation," she said. "With a baby, the nights are so short that I've barely brushed my hair in the last few months!" Despite the hustle and bustle, Bündchen remains optimistic. "With a baby, the nights are so short that I've barely brushed my hair in the last few months!" "Now that my little one is sleeping through the night, I'm back in control. As any new mom knows, it's incredible how much sleep – or lack of it – can change everything!" she told the outlet. Bündchen appeared on the cover of Vogue France's June/July issue – just four months after giving birth. "I feel more comfortable in my own skin. And I have a clearer understanding of my priorities. I'm grateful for where I am. I feel like I've earned it," she admitted. Bündchen told the outlet that her favorite moments are spending time with her three kids at home. She shares Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11, with Brady. "Time at home with my kids is absolutely priceless," she said. Bündchen noted that following her shoot with Vogue, she was most excited to get back home to her "bundle of joy." Valente first came into the picture as a jiu-jitsu instructor for Bündchen and her son, Benny. Having been referred to the Valente Brothers academy through a friend, the supermodel told Dust magazine in 2022, "I wanted to steer my almost teenage son in the right direction. I thought he might be interested in this." The Brazilian beauty started studying jiu-jitsu herself in December 2021. "Initially, I wasn't even considering it for myself," she said. "But when I brought [Benny] to the first class and started talking to Joaquim, I realized that it was much more than self-defense." After spending time as friends, Bündchen and Valente's relationship reportedly turned romantic in June 2023. "First, their relationship was teacher/student. Then… they became friends. And eventually, way after she was already divorced and she had no commitment to Tom Brady, something else started," a source previously told Fox News Digital of how their relationship progressed. The source added that Valente is an extremely charismatic person with "a great sense of humor" who is "very intelligent, very loving, he's just a good person," noting that "he loves kids." Brady and Bündchen announced their divorce on Oct. 28, 2022, in separate Instagram posts. "In recent days my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage," Brady wrote at the time. "We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together. We are blessed with beautiful and wonderful children who will continue to be the center of our world in every way. We will continue to work together as parents to always ensure they receive the love and attention they deserve." Bündchen wrote, "The decision to end a marriage is never easy but we have grown apart and while it is, of course, difficult to go through something like this, I feel blessed for the time we had together and only wish the best for Tom always."

A museum for excellence, brought to you by Tom Brady
LAS VEGAS — Ahead of the entrance, a small, headless mannequin wears a bedazzled Team USA leotard. Gymnast Simone Biles wore the red, white and blue uniform when she won the first of her 11 career Olympic medals. Just down the hall are a pair of Air Jordans that Michael Jordan wore during his rookie season. The scuffed-up, size 13 cleats that welcome visitors were worn by Tom Brady when the quarterback pulled off the greateast comeback in Super Bowl history. The voice of Morgan Freeman narrates a 33-minute audio tour. The sports artifacts belong to the Hall of Excellence, a museum that opened Friday inside the Fontainebleau Resort and Casino, giving a city that has long trafficked in the sparkly and surreal one more place to gawk. The sleek non-gaming attraction tucked into a 67-story casino and resort is the brainchild of Brady, now a part-owner in the Las Vegas Raiders, and sportscaster Jim Gray. During a tour that Gray gave to The Washington Post before opening, he said the idea for the hall came up eight years ago. 'Tom and I were doing a radio show, and he had just broken some record that came with an award,' Gray said. 'I asked, 'What do you do with all this stuff?' He said, 'I just put it in a storage warehouse.' ' That got Gray thinking about his own house in Los Angeles, which was overflowing with memorabilia from decades of historic moments. (He recently relocated to Las Vegas.) 'I started to think, you know, we don't have children … my wife has tolerated this all these years,' Gray said. 'And I thought we should share this with the public. Let others enjoy it.' 'Now we have a home that we can decorate without sports,' said Frann Vettor-Gray. Las Vegas is of course a sports town now. When Gray and Brady decided to put their memorabilia on display, they called in favors, dug through storage and rallied a few famous friends to help create one of the most impressive semi-private sports collections ever assembled. The cost of admission is $35, with discounts for locals, kids, seniors and military. The Hall of Excellence features 310 artifacts, spread across 26 themed display cases and a handful of freestanding showpieces. The last two items to added to the haul were golf balls signed by Presidents Joe Biden and Donald Trump. What began with items from personal archives has since grown to include contributions from Olympians, MVPs, broadcasters, entertainers, multiple halls of fame and the White House. 'All these incredible items and stories deserved more than a spot in a closet or storage unit,' Brady said in an email to The Post. 'The vision grew from wanting to preserve memorabilia to wanting to inspire people. We weren't building a museum. We were building an experience that captures what it takes to be great.' Everything inside the Hall of Excellence lives on a second-floor mezzanine at Fontainebleau, above the casino and en route to restaurant row. It's an elegant space turned fortified gallery, with priceless memorabilia behind two-inch-thick glass that we can only presume is bullet- and smash-proof. Neither the Hall nor Fontainebleau would reveal any details about the James Bond level of security that must be required for such a display. Upon entering, guests are provided a special iPhone and Freeman's narration, instantly recognizable voices queued up for exhibits include Marv Albert, Jim Nantz, Andre Agassi, Snoop Dogg, Oprah Winfrey, and others. Among the objects on display, there's Babe Ruth's bat from his legendary 'Called Shot' in the 1932 World Series, and Jackie Robinson's bat from 1947 when he broke baseball's color barrier (on loan from Reggie Jackson). There's also a golf ball from Tiger Woods's first Masters win; a ticket stub, media credential and scorecard from Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game, and the Atlanta Braves batting helmet worn by Hank Aaron as he hit home runs 714 and 715. Brady said Jackie Robinson's bat was particularly special —'that's American history,' he said — and the Woods ball is a favorite. 'I remember watching that moment and learning what focus under pressure really looks like,' Brady said. 'Those items go beyond the game.' In this Hall, excellence isn't limited to just sports. One display features the dark, fitted suit Elvis Presley wore when he signed his contract with the Las Vegas International Hotel and performed that same night. The 1969 show marked his return to live performance after eight years of making films, and launched a record-setting run of 636 consecutive sold-out shows that redefined the modern Las Vegas residency. In another corner, there's Oprah Winfrey's Presidential Medal of Freedom. When he was asking for favors, Gray said, partnering with Brady was key: 'Tom opens every door.' Gray's career, though, has spanned nearly five decades. His reporting has brought him ringside, courtside and on the field at 10 World Series, 11 Olympic Games, 30 NBA Finals, 37 Masters tournaments, and 44 Super Bowls. He's been inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame and honored by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. He's interviewed six U.S. presidents, often covering sports in the context of cultural and political flashpoints. Tucked into a quiet nook of the Hall is a tribute to Gray himself — a reminder that sometimes, excellence lies not on the field, but in the voice that helps the world make sense of it. At its center is Gray's copy of his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, resting behind four of his 12 national Sports Emmy Awards. 'For the longest time that star was in the gym at my house where I worked out, behind the weights,' Gray said. 'I never got around to putting it by the pool as originally planned.' Eventually all visitors will find themselves in the trophy room. 'Trophies represent the Holy Grail, the triumphs,' the Freeman recording bellows. 'They are symbols of excellence and all its magical forms …' Where else can you see in one quick scan so many of these so close: the Vince Lombardi Trophy, the weighty Heisman, the Claret Jug, the MLB Commissioner's Trophy, U.S. Open trophies (for both golf and tennis), Wimbledon, the Kentucky Derby. There's a special EGOT wall that displays Oprah's first Emmy and only Tony alongside Clint Eastwood's Oscar for Unforgiven and Justin Timberlake's first Grammy. At the center of this room is the Hall's culmination, and where much of the vision began – with Tom Brady's seven Super Bowl rings. Each ring rests on its own illuminated pedestal inside a custom-crafted heptahedron that seems more shrine than trophy case. The display emits a soft internal glow highlighting every facet of every gem. Together they tell a story not just of Brady's triumphs, but also of an NFL that hasn't stopped growing in money or influence. The rings increase in size and symbolism with each championship. The first, from 2002, is relatively modest: 42 diamonds circling the Patriots logo, engraved with 'World Champions.' The final ring, earned with the Buccaneers in 2021, is its own vault of brilliance, showcasing 319 diamonds, 15 carats of white gold, and a removable top that reveals a miniature Raymond James Stadium, with the game's final score etched beneath. 'Honestly, it was a bit emotional,' Brady said about seeing them all together for the first time. 'Each ring represents a year of commitment, sacrifice, and teamwork. .' As you exit the trophy room, there's one more case of Brady's personal memories. It includes his college letter jacket from Michigan, a comparatively humble Orange Bowl ring and his NFL draft card from 2000, where he was the 199th pick.
