3+ hour, 1+ min ago (451+ words) The Atlanta Falcons have not one, but two budding superstars on their defensive line. While James Pearce Jr. is starting to make up for the heartache of not having a 2026 first-round pick, fellow first-round pick Jalon Walker is quietly igniting the Atlanta defense's stark turnaround under Jeff Ulbrich.

But with Jeff Ulbrich utilizing Walker's history as a linebacker to tap into his versatility, it's seen him impress as a pass-rusher, a tackler,…...

This year's Capital One Quicksilver credit card commercial featured Travolta, dressed as an updated Santa, dancing and singing to "Greased Lightnin" from his hit musical "Grease." The lyrics have gotten a seasonal tweak, UPI reported. The song now goes: "Why, this car could be frost-o-matic, tinsel-matic, 1.5 percent cash back-omatic. It's Greased Lightnin'! Go, Greased Lightnin', you're burning up the quarter mile. Go, Greased Lightnin', you're coasting through the heat lap trials. You are supreme for Greased Lightnin'."
