I'm sick of all this pop-culturization of football. Heck, football was one of the few escapes from that garbage.

Football has been into pop culture since the late eighties. It was just a different pop culture then.

AMEN!!!

I had never heard of "Green whatever" or Kenya whoever until I read what he had said on TV! That crap they sing is not music.

Just my opinion, of course.

You and me both. It's clear that garbage isn't for the fans in the stadium. They don't need to be entertained during half time. They can banter and argue back and forth or go get food during the down times. The garbage is to draw in the Gen X'ers who might be flipping the channels and see their favorite groups performing and stick with the show long enough to be advertised to a few dozen times.

We've taken to just videotaping many of the games we want to watch, then watching them later, FF'ing through the ads.

I agree. All the sacchrin saturating the grit of football is giing me a belly ache. Pretty soon football players will be viewed as sensitive diverse metrosexuals ie., girlie men. Yack
