The NFL Super Bowl is THE single televised event of the year which not any other occasion even comes close to rivaling.
It’s got football, it’s got chips, it’s got football, dip, football, beer (Pepsi for me) you get the picture.
But for some reason, which is still lost on me, the NFL thinks it doesn’t have enough. It started going overboard with the halftime show when Diana Ross changed close 5 times during a single song back in SBXXX in AZ.
BTW – I actually thought Prince was decent except for some of the cover songs.
Now the NFL has gone the way of the Olympics with overdone pre-game entertainment.
Let me paint the picture for you — I’ve just finished grilling my rack of ribs to perfection. I’ve got my giant mug of Pepsi. I’ve got my chips, my dip and the remote. I should be set to go.
I turn on the machine and what do I see? I see butterfly’s running over the NFL shield with a kaleidoscope of colors that is about to make me barf. Someone is singing a Alternative-Salsa style song with no discernable words and more fluffy (used in a condecending tone) stuff going all over the place.
It still make me made that on the most Male dominated sport holiday of the year, there are butterflies and caterpillars disrupting what should be something about football.
Save all that stuff for the olympics. This is the day of football. Don’t descecrate it with images that belong on the Martha Stewart show.
