Sports Title: Meek Mill to watch Super Bowl from prison Rapper Meek Mill and the other inmates at SCI Chester will get to watch the Super Bowl in prison. But, for Mill, the game has special meaning. The Philadelphia Eagles will take the Super Bowl field -- arguably the largest stage in the world -- to his song "Dreams and Nightmares." SCI Chester confirmed with with PennLive Saturday that Mill will have the choice to watch from his cell on a TV purchased from the commissary or on one of the community TVs designated for the entire block. Mill released the following statement on the Eagles Super Bowl run: "I'm so proud of my Eagles for making the Super Bowl and representing the city of Philadelphia. It really lifted my spirit to hear the team rally around my songs and that's why I make music - to inspire others and bring people together. But the Eagles have also motivated me with the way they've overcome tough situations and injuries to succeed this year. That's why I'm confident my guys are going to beat the Patriots and bring the Super Bowl trophy to Philly." Mill's music has been part of the Eagles season in the locker room and on Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. Here is a clip of the Eagles listening to Mill during pregame:
Sunday marks the first Eagles appearance in a Super Bowl in 13 years and the first time in nearly six decades that Philly could win a football championship. The underdog Eagles will take on the five-time champion New England Patriots at 6:30 p.m. inside U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Philadelphia will be fighting for its first Super Bowl win. Some players have said Mill's prison sentence is too harsh. Safety Malcom Jenkins and wideout Torrey Smith have joined a chorus of Philly athletes and celebrities across the country rallying for an overturned or lighter sentence for Mill. Mill was sentenced to 2 to 4 years in state prison last fall when a Philadelphia judge said he violated probation on a nearly decade-old gun and drug case. He was held in SCI Camp Hill briefly before being moved to SCI Chester.
