The Mahomes family is at their best throughout the season. Patrick Mahomes is doing what he’s best at—leading his team to a historic run. But what about his mom, Randi Mahomes? Well, she’s also gearing up to do what she does best—cheer for her son. She is nothing but proud of her son as Mahomes clinched yet another conference championship. But there’s still a big question hanging on our heads. Any guesses?

What are some of the challenges of raising an athlete? When asked about the same, Randi Mahomes gave us the kind of answer you’d expect from a mom who’s been through it all with an athlete, especially with an NFL star. “Those weekend tournaments.” That’s it. Sounds a bit confusing, right? Let’s dive deep into Randi’s thoughts of raising an athlete.

“It’s a takeover between driving a far distance to these tournaments that last all day, all night,” she continued when asked about those weekend tournaments. “It seems like to taking little naps in my car in between games, letting the kids play. But you know, taking naps, other parents helping out. So there’s a lot of teamwork that goes into it.” Honestly, Randi’s weekends aren’t just about her anymore. Now, they’re about supporting her kids and keeping everything running smoothly.

In Randi’s words, “It takes over your life.” Let’s be real—in some ways, that’s an understatement. Because we all know how hectic a weekend can be during the game nights, right? And Randi could probably write a book on the emotional rollercoaster of being a sports mom.

But in hindsight, she looks back with fondness. She now realizes how special that time was, even with all the hustle and bustle. “So, I just learned to enjoy and I look back now and I’m like I miss that,” she further said. “I would do anything to go back to those every weekend of the month tournaments because now I look back and it was a really special time in my life. One-on one with my kids. It was pretty magical.” Plus, her son’s successful career is cherry on top.

Now, let’s talk about the elephant in the room, shall we? Because, being a proud mom of one of the best quarterback in the league, Randi has some wisdom to share for parents currently in the trenches of raising young athletes. Her advice? “I would definitely tell them to take a breath and enjoy the moments because, in a blink of an eye, they’re grown,” she finished. Honestly, these some are words from an experienced mom.

As the Super Bowl draws near, Randi Mahomes’ perspective on raising an athlete kid is to cherish the ride, even when it feels exhausting. Because, as she says, “These moments are priceless!” Mom’s perspective on her kid? Check. Now, it’s time to talk about Mahomes’ dad as he’s excited for the 3-peat as well.

Patrick Mahomes’ dad is having a great day

Let’s take a detour from family moments to the on-field action. How ’bout those Chiefs! At this point, Mahomes and his squad can’t do any wrong, can they? The road to the 3-peat kicked off against the Eagles, and now they’re looking to wrap it up by taking them down again. On the other hand, the Buffalo Bills wrapped up their season with yet another setback. Sure, that was the worst day for any Buffalo fans.

But here’s the twist. Right after the Chiefs crushed the Bills’ dreams, Pat Mahomes Sr. hopped onto his official ‘X’ account and threw some shade at Buffalo. So, what did he have to say? “Today is a great day to not be from Buffalo…” Ouch! In one way or another, he’s not wrong if we’re being honest. The reason?

Well, you could definitely argue that the Bills are one of the unluckiest teams in the league. For starters, they made four back-t0-back Super Bowl appearances from 1990 to 1993 and guess what? They lost all of them. Talk about a total disaster for four consecutive years. And if that wasn’t enough, they’ve faced the Chiefs in the playoffs four times… and yep, you guessed it—they lost every single one of those matchups too.

If those Super Bowl losses were disasters, then these playoff losses are straight-up horror movie material for them. Stephen King must be side-eyeing such a story right about now. So yes, that day was surely not a great day to be from Buffalo.
