he Super Bowl is an annual celebration of Just Guy Things: homoerotic tight pants, dude-on-dude grappling, sports, balls, brews, and chili. Conversely, the Super Bowl halftime show is an incredibly flamboyant tribute to all things over the top, featuring big-name celebrities, elaborate pyrotechnics, and some of the best wardrobes (and wardrobe malfunctions) this side of the 2001 VMAs. No one has ever adequately explained the pairing of these two inherently disparate spectacles, and it’s difficult to imagine the Venn diagram of dedicated sports enthusiasts and people who are psyched to watch an extended Bruno Mars medley. Nonetheless we, the non-sports fans of America, are annually grateful for the Super Bowl halftime show, the saving grace of every game and the highlight of every Super Bowl party (also, a reassuring reminder that we’ve already made it through half of the Super Bowl).

For the NFL, halftime is the Superbowl’s great money spinner, and it is made all the better by expanding the audience demographic to include more women, teens, and non-sports fans. The halftime entertainment is selected to do just that.
>>>Perhaps they will play their new song in which they included Barack Obama singing?<<<
Got them a gig during the Super Bowl din’t it? If nobama runs up on the stage a boot is going right through my expensive TV!
I hope I’m not carrying because I am afraid I might pull an Elvis Presley on my TV.
Eh, Its Sunday so I am sure Graveyard Cars will be on.
Why pick an author that hates football, and men, to write about the Super Bowl.
Snarky little bitch, isn’t she...actually, I’m thinking it might be one of the resident footballphobes that turn up on these types of threads, with their weird, libidinous takes on the game...
tight pants epecially seems to preoccupy them...
I doubt Eddie could stay sober long enough to make it to halftime.
BRING BACK UP WITH PEOPLE!
Eddie’s been sober and squared away for years now. Finally... [His son got it to happen]
horrible band, mediocre musicianship, with a couple songs that have a good hook. will be tuning out.
i agree with you. I didn’t see the ceremony when Brett’s number was retired. The NFL network also ran a special about how Green Bay fans turned on him when he went to the Vikings. I might catch them on Youtube, even though, like you, I’m not a Packers fan.
My husband got me into football. I wish I’d been a fan growing up so I could have shared it with my father.
He fell off the wagon. They had to cancel their last tour because he couldn't stay sober.
Don’t hate me...I’m a Panther’s fan, and I’m finally...FINALLY...enjoying it, LOL. ;)

Umm, I just saw them in late August as part of their 2015 tour, and as far as I can tell they completed all of the rest of their scheduled dates, so....
agreed
Exactly what I thought. Instead it turns out to be another tiresome lefty ditz (and Lena Dunham supporter) who is apparently homo but decidedly not erotic.
