What a FREAK SHOW!

As I opined last night, I had heard the name but (thankfully) had never heard them "perform."

Muted it after about 30 seconds as they sounded like a bunch of screeching cats.

Their outfits would have fit right in with the "bar scene" in Star Wars.

What TF is happening to the NFL?

I would think that there are more people over 30 than under who watch the SP, so why this apparent act which seems to be aimed at the younguns, I'll never know.

WHAT PISSED ME OFF THE MOST was--after wasting all that time with the "Peas"--when acknowledging the first living MOH recipient since Nam, Sgt. Giunta, they went to a commercial.

I know that commercials are "scheduled" but you can't tell me that either NFL and/or Fox, could not have waited to recognize this HERO when all the Millions (from around the World) could have witnessed this?

Almost makes a skeptic such as I, want to think that someone did not want to "offend" anyone, is anti-Military/America/War (oops, "Overseas Contingency Operations") and I would hate to think this was done intentionally.

That did it for me.

I changed the channel and watched something else.

A pox on both their miserable houses!

Wow, I don’t blame you a bit. I admit I was very interested in the MOH hero, and was pointing him out to my son when they cut away from him, leaving all of us wondering how we missed it.

Egads, that was the worse halftime performance I have ever seen. It was a good thing they captioned who they were because no one here recognized them. We didn’t enjoy it at all and it seemed like it would never end. I thought it was Tron costumes. Tron wasn’t good the first time around and even worse (from what I’ve heard) in the remake. It reminded me of that awful winter Olymics a few years ago. One would think that the performers would be chosen for those paying the big bucks for seats - big corporations and a more mature audience. This will date me but there was only one song anyone here recognized.

FWIW, the football announcers did take a moment to show the good SSG and identify him as the only living MOH recipient in recent history. (This was early in the 3rd quarter, IIRC)
