    KANSAS CITY, MO     Local television viewers were frustrated this week due to a director's decision to have the production crew cut away from a crucial touchdown pass to instead show a slow-motion replay of recording artist Taylor Swift eating a nacho.

    "Look at the flawless execution," said CBS play-by-play announcer Jim Nantz as the replay painstakingly showed Swift devouring a particularly loaded tortilla chip. "It's moments like these that we live for as football fans. We've seen nothing like it before, and in my opinion, it's unlikely we will ever see anything like it ever again. History is being played out right in front of our eyes, ladies and gentlemen."

    The Chiefs took the lead on a 3rd-quarter touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes to Rashee Rice. Since tight end Travis Kelce, Swift's current boyfriend, was not the recipient of the pass, the singer took the opportunity to dig into her nachos, giving the broadcast team the chance they had been waiting for all day. "This is the excitement everyone came here to see, Jim," said analyst Tony Romo. "I've been around this game for a long time, both as a player and now an announcer, and I'm transfixed. Absolutely awe-inspiring!"

    Chiefs fans, many of whom are growing tired of the coverage of the team revolving around Swift, had strong opinions. "Get her off my TV!" shouted Chris Wilson. "I'm here to watch football, not some serial dating pop star lady!"

    At publishing time, CBS had just finished airing an in-game advertisement for next week's episode of Taylor Swift Sitting in a Stadium Suite that was expected to be periodically interrupted by brief glimpses of a football game.
