There’s also a bad Christian rock band called Creed.
There’s also, also, now a “petition” from the musical Creedmunity declaring the film Creed is abusing the Creed name and should be changed.

Sarah spoke to King Daniel about the song for Fightland.

Southpaw
Jake Gyllenhaal is going to be in a new movie called Southpaw.
Rumour has it Gyllenhaal trained like mad for the role to look legit.
There appears to be one problem, however.
In all the advance promo material Gyllenhaal is shown in the orthodox, right-handed fighting stance, not the southpaw left-handed stance.
