I think most of the black militant symbolism in Bouncey’s routine will not be understood by 90% of the (white) audience. That symbolism was not that of black pride but of revolution and racial grievance of the 1960’s.

It appears this will be record viewing, or maybe second.

So no reason to expect the NFL wants this to change.

I think this is going to be the norm from here on out for halftime shows, they want something for each demographic, instead of just one act. Besides, there really aren’t that many headliners out there anymore.

OK, if that’s the way it is. I suppose I must be just getting old.

Hey, how about this... how about one, or maybe two, of the top HIGH SCHOOL bands in the country?

Totally push everyone's comfort zone and think of the experience it would be for the kids.

Never happen? Okay, never happen, but wouldn't it would be better than last nite? Real music, performed live and in real time, by real human beings?

Last nite, Bruno was okay except that he was lip-synch too, Coldplay was embarrassing with the synchronized kids jumping up and down and playing violins at the same time, and Beyoncé was... what she was - a tragedy waiting to happen unless she does something different with her life. Yes, it shows that much. I couldn't watch it.
