The source is (freakin') anonymous and it originates from The Sun (for crying out loud). I give it a 5% chance of being true. That being said, the Magamorons are losing their shit over it anyway and that always makes for entertaining media.

The irony of a Super Bowl featuring the (American) Eagles defeating the (Native American) Chiefs is not lost on me. Howard Zinn must be rolling over in his grave.
