Players to Watch

Both teams featured in Superbowl LV have electrifying offenses, which sets up an intriguing matchup. This section highlights players on each team who will likely be vital for their teams this Sunday:

Patrick Mahomes- Quarterback- Chiefs

Mahomes, who was last year’s Super Bowl MVP as he led his team to a comeback victory over the San Francisco 49ers, is the centrepiece of the Chiefs’ offense. He has racked up 38 passing touchdowns (TDs) in the regular season and another four in the Chiefs’ two play-off games. Despite a brief injury scare in the Chiefs’ first playoff game against the Bills, he returned to perform well in the AFC Championship game and looks set to go for Sunday’s Super Bowl.

Travis Kelce- Tight End- Chiefs

Tyreek Hill- Wide Receiver/Returner- Chiefs

Known as the ‘Cheetah’, Hill possesses lighting pace and impressive footwork. Over the course of the season, he has been responsible for 15 receiving TDs and a further two rushing TDs. He is definitely one to watch out for when Chiefs are returning a kick-off or punt.

Tom Brady- Quarterback- Buccaneers

The six-time Super Bowl Champion who led the New England Patriots’ offense for many years joined the Bucs during the 2020 offseason. Brady, who is considered by many as the Greatest of All Time (GOAT), has made a stunning impact on the Buccaneers franchise, leading them to their first Super Bowl for almost two decades.  His 2020 campaign has seen him throw 40 passing TDs throughout the regular season and a further seven in the playoffs. Showing that despite being 43-years old and having played 20 seasons in the league, Brady can still mix it with the best.

Rob Gronkowski- Tight End- Buccaneers

A favourite teammate of Brady for many years in New England, Gronkowski came out of retirement this season to join his ex-teammate in Tampa. Since then, he has proved a valuable addition to the Bucs, achieving 666 receiving yards and seven TDs throughout the regular season and playoffs.

    Flirt.com is a scam
    Hi all, got scammed by this website. Saw that there were a couple of post informing about this but just wanted to give more details
    Paid for the three day offer and with the confirmation of the subscription, got two mails from hornycontacts.com and loveaholics.com asking me to confirm my email. Didn’t pay attention and deleted them.
    I immediately canceled the subscription in flirt.com without any issue and on the last day it changed to a standard membership so since it was bs site, cancelled the account as well.
    So I was happy and watching a movie when I got an sms from my card provider telling me that I got a 71.78 euros charge from fry frtlsp.com. Never heard of them, so I called my card provider and cancelled my card and will request the return of the money as well.
    Then I realized that maybe these two websites also by some miracle signed me up to a paid subscription… so I logged in… had to recover the passwords because they were not the one I used in flirt.com… and surprise, loveaholics.com did signed me up for a paid subscription without me being aware (pretty sure that somewhere during the signing process in flirt there was something checked and didn’t pay attention.). So I had to cancel subscription and account in these two other sites.
    So, sorry for the long post but in summary…. do not use flirt.com at all!!!
    Yes, FLIRT.COM it is a scamming website. It sign you on multiple websites like askme4date.com . It bombard you with emails that you receive messages, and you need to pay to see them. After you pay you see the messages. All messages are from BOTS. No real person.
    It’s subscribing to automatic renewal and it’s hard to cancel renewal. They push you to a complicated scheme. I’m not even sure the renewal canceling works. After

    Understanding COSC Accreditation and Its Importance in Watchmaking
    COSC Accreditation and its Rigorous Criteria
    COSC, or the Controle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, is the authorized Switzerland testing agency that attests to the precision and precision of wristwatches. COSC validation is a symbol of excellent craftsmanship and trustworthiness in chronometry. Not all watch brands follow COSC certification, such as Hublot, which instead follows to its own stringent standards with movements like the UNICO calibre, achieving equivalent precision.

    The Art of Exact Chronometry
    The core system of a mechanized timepiece involves the mainspring, which provides power as it unwinds. This system, however, can be vulnerable to environmental factors that may affect its precision. COSC-accredited mechanisms undergo rigorous testing—over 15 days in various circumstances (5 positions, three temperatures)—to ensure their resilience and reliability. The tests evaluate:

    Average daily rate precision between -4 and +6 seconds.
    Mean variation, peak variation levels, and impacts of thermal variations.
    Why COSC Certification Matters
    For timepiece enthusiasts and connoisseurs, a COSC-validated timepiece isn’t just a item of tech but a testament to enduring quality and accuracy. It signifies a watch that:

    Offers exceptional reliability and precision.
    Provides assurance of superiority across the whole construction of the timepiece.
    Is apt to maintain its value more effectively, making it a wise choice.
    Popular Chronometer Manufacturers
    Several famous brands prioritize COSC certification for their timepieces, including Rolex, Omega, Breitling, and Longines, among others. Longines, for instance, provides collections like the Record and Soul, which highlight COSC-certified movements equipped with advanced materials like silicon equilibrium springs to improve resilience and efficiency.

    Historical Background and the Evolution of Chronometers
    The idea of the chronometer dates back to the requirement for exact chronometry for navigational at sea, highlighted by John Harrison’s work in the 18th century. Since the official establishment of COSC in 1973, the accreditation has become a yardstick for assessing the accuracy of luxury watches, maintaining a tradition of excellence in horology.

    Conclusion
    Owning a COSC-certified watch is more than an aesthetic selection; it’s a commitment to excellence and precision. For those appreciating precision above all, the COSC certification offers tranquility of thoughts, ensuring that each certified watch will operate dependably under various conditions. Whether for personal satisfaction or as an investment decision, COSC-certified watches stand out in the world of watchmaking, carrying on a legacy of precise chronometry.
