Springsteen’s name came up a month ago, and the reports were the NFL shot it down because they were concerned that he would use it as a chance to pontificate on his politics. Since the Super Bowl is the first Sunday in February, we will be treated either to (1) smart aleck remarks on how great we are to have elected Obama or (2) smart aleck remarks on why AMerica is a dank and terrible place for having elected McCain. Either way, something must have happened for the NFL to flip a decision like this. Dumb decision.
