(Jessica) Simpson's wardrobe checked by NFL

FOXBORO, Mass. (AP) - The NFL has learned its lesson from the Super Bowl "wardrobe malfunction."

In order to avoid a repeat of the crotch-grabbing, breast-baring halftime show from Houston, the league is tightly controlling the concert that will be broadcast before Thursday night's season opener.

The league picked the acts, which include Elton John, Lenny Kravitz and Destiny's Child. They'll be performing from Gillette Stadium, where the New England Patriots will play the Indianapolis Colts. There will also be a 10-second delay on the broadcast to give the NFL and ABC a chance to pull the plug on anything too racy.

So, the NFL has gone into the Room of Doom to make sure Jessica Simpson is wearing proper clothing. However, her improper technique (she isn't singing) might be what sends out a 15-yard penalty.

I'd much rather see a wardrobe "malfunction" from her than Janet. ;)

I think the whole thing's a bit silly. To borrow the signature line from Monday Night Football, I am ready for some football! ...not a song & dance show.

LOL! No kidding. Every time I look at her, I feel like I'm looking at Michael Jackson, but with breasts. Pretty horrifying how much she looks like her brother.

I don't think Jessica is quite as desparate and morally-bankrupt as Janet. Stupid maybe.....

Nah.

The league just wanted to check out Jessica Simpson.

And Jessica's Simpson's wardrobe.

And, just to be sure, Jessica Simpson without her wardrobe.

Elton John? Jessica Simpson? I'd like to know who in the NFL office thought that football fans would want to see/hear them.

The fact that you have not included pictures will result in future ostracization. Please rectify immediately.

I really hate this crap, just play the damn game. Having this crap at the Super Bowl is bad enough.

Elton John????

The NFL is obviously worried about their TV ratings in Provincetown, Massachusetts; otherwise they'd give us some real football music from the country genre, or even the metal genre. But certainly not some squishy music from the light-in-the-loafers genre.

Ah, the Jets: simply another team the Pats will roll right over on their way to their third Superbowl victory in four years.

Could very well malfunction, based on past evidence:
