Statement regarding the Super Bowl halftime show
www.superbowl.com ^ | February 1, 2004 | NFL

Posted on 02/01/2004 7:20:07 PM PST by Lawgvr1955

Statement by NFL Executive Vice President Joe Browne regarding the Super Bowl halftime show:

"We were extremely disappointed by elements of the MTV-produced Halftime show. They were totally inconsistent with assurances our office was given about the show. It's unlikely that MTV will produce another Super Bowl halftime."

I didn't see either one. Why can't they ever have Caucasian-Americans perform at the Super Bowl, or at any nationally televised sporting event?

Oh, don't get me wrong. Breasts are evil. Really evil. I don't know how I will ever recover now that I have seen Janet's mostly exposed breast. I'm traumatized... I can think of nothing worse than seeing a bare female breast.

I think you're on the wrong site, little boy. The DU's more your speed.

I saw all that, and I'm thinking to myself, well, they're not my favorites, but they were GOOD....and clean, and decent.

I was floored by the halftime show; and we have kids in their 20's and 30's.

It was just inappropriate for people sitting around watching the big old Super Bowl with their families.

Disgusting.

Bring back Barry Manilow!

Go tune into your pay per view lingerie bowl porn bowl...we wanna watch football.

Oh yeah? Football? Is that what you call 60 minutes of play in 7 second increments plus 3 1/2 hours of idiocy?

How may kids do you have?

LOL, didn't you come into contact with a female breast as a child? I don't see a female breast as being that unusual. Certainly not something that is ugly. It's a functional part of your anatomy- like your arm for example.

So, let me see if I understand this right.

CBS refused to air a Moveon.org commercial during the Super Bowl because they claimed they don't run "convroversy ads," and yet they do this during the Super Bowl?

What's up with that?

MTV is a nest of filthy perverts. Perhaps MTV should be made to practice "thou shall not offend" pc crap they indoctrinate young people with daily. Couldn't they be sued for this. I and millions others have been emotionally scarred, offended, upset, etc. by that ugly boob. They forced everyone including children to look at that thing. Also, call you cable/satellite companies and demand that your monthly subscription does not one penny go to MTV. There must be a way to get rid of these monsters.

Do you think nudity is appropriate on network TV during a sporting event that families are watching?

Well, to start with, I don't own a television.

But to continue, nudity is common on television where I live. But graphic violence is not. I don't think there is anything ugly about a woman's breasts- if that's what you're asking.

Who cares about a freakin' Boob! First, getting all upset about it and talking about it is exactly what they want. Second, basically all paintings from the Renaissance had naked boobs in them, often with milk spurting out at little cherubs, or with the boob's owner squeezing it. We need to just get over it - lot's of us have boobs, so it's just silly.

And anyway, Nelly was not really making obscene gestures from his crotch - he just had his hand there, as I have my hand on mine now.

Also, Kid Rock and Nelly make good music. It is certainly some of the most interesting music being put out right now, regardless of whether you actually like it that much or not. And this is coming from someone who went to conservatories for classical music for undergrad and graduate school.

Beyonce was classy and sang a beautiful rendition.

How were you exposed? At your mom's breast, or did your folks take you to topless clubs? There is a difference...

A Jackson begging for attention?.....I'm shocked. I remember when they used to try and get by on talent.

I have NO clue.

But I'm wondering if parents all over America didn't get a good look at what some of their children are watching when they aren't looking.

Using that logic there's no difference between Michelangelo and Larry Flynt. After all, they both did/do nudes.

Which one do you buy?

I haven't had anyone to force me to buy either one.

I don't even own a television. You don't like what's on the telly, turn the thing off or do like I did and throw the thing in the garbage.

At least the NFL halftime show didn't get upstaged by the "Lingerie Bowl".

That reminds me,.. was there a Live thread for the Lechers Bowl?

I may need to check that out for some good wholesome fun after watching that MTV production.
