A number of, um, red-accessorized people seemed unaware of PR's status with the United States.
Apparently, also, the announcement of Bad Bunny as the halftime lip-syncer supreme is causing some absolute meltdowns.
Apparently, switching channels for 20-30 minutes is soul crushing, or something.
It's officially SKOL SEASON!! LET THE PLUNDERING BEGIN!!

I think in my entire life as a football fan (since around 1980) I have actually watched the halftime show 2 times. Have never been part of the demographic the NFL is searching for.))

cant honestly say I have heard one word on it except for here, and zero angst over it here that I've seen except the genre, nothing to do with anything that would be construed as other.
honestly if it wasnt for a post above... I wouldnt have a clue that he wasnt from NY.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

Just one of many, many headlines. I picked this over the Yahoo News article with claims that "THE NFL HATES AMERICA".

LOL. Figures. But what doesn't "Spark MAGA Fury"? Seriously, search "MAGA Fury" on Google News and the result is pretty hilarious.

Another hard hitting journalistic piece from Newsweek..via Yahoo. Here's my issue with it:
Halftime shows since Jay Z's Roc Nation took over..
2026: Bad Bunny
2025: Kendrick Lamar with special guest SZA
2024: Usher with special guests Alicia Keys, Jermaine Dupri, H.E.R., will.i.am, Lil Jon, Ludacris
2023: Rihanna
2022: Eminem, Dr. Dre. Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige
2021: The Weeknd
2020: Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Emme Muniz
Not exactly a diversity of genres....
Maybe every once in a while throw in a Country act ..or a Classic Rock act...or..
Bad Bunny is kind of a douche...and he's done a halftime show before (in 2020). Kendrick Lamar did two as well. Maybe, just maybe we mix it up a little? Unless we're indeed too woke to consider other genres.
My suggestion would be to talk a band into a one time reunion...maybe a Fleetwood Mac, or Bon Jovi, or Van Halen with Wolfgang. Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd...it would have some human interest as well.

I am 1 year off from being a Boomer .. and not shocked anymore by the NFLs decision making. I am irritated by the tone deafness of the NFL.
Pretty sure the NFL's biggest demographic is men and Christian (not all just the biggest). So the NFLs core audience showed what they think about Bud Light, Disney, Target, Starbucks, Cracker Barrel, and that men cant be women and vice versa. Yet the NFL selects a halftime entertainer who is not know by the core audience. Who is "gender fluid" wears dresses, sings predominantly in Spanish, Bad Bunny songs often have explicit language, sexually suggestive themes. Superbowl is about people and families gathering together for an American tradition.. almost a holiday. So as an almost Boomer you get the sense you are despised by the very companies you think your time and money built their successful. Ok Im ready to take the verbal beating from the usual suspects.
