Dear NFL,

You folks have sunk to a new low. Obviousely you either knew of the planned exposure or were too stupid to control the content of the halftime show. In either case, the NFL is not worthy to receive my support for the NFL nor will I buy NFL Gear.

The only way I will come back to support the NFL if you do the following:

Bar VIACOM from ever televising or radio broadcast of NFL GAMES for ever. This includes regular and play off games.

Limit the Superbowl halftime to the twelve minute standard.

I don't think you folks know the repercushion from yesterday's halftime show. The cash cow is over for the NFL unless you turn 90 degrees and clean up the NFL.

Please consider my concerns.

Bye. On behalf of football, see you later. You want to blame the league, when it was the network who was at fault. The ratings are up again this year. CBS bought the rights to broadcast NFL games, which includes a spot in the Super Bowl rotation. Should the league have gone with NBC, even though they weren't willing to pay as much? With the way things work, the NFL doesn't have much of a choice but to do business with broadcast networks. They cannot have a cable channel run more than half of their games. Many more people would not be able to see the games, and they would lose viewership.

Hey, guess what, she wasn't even naked. I would think Richard Hatch naked on Survivor is more offensive than a covered up female breast.
