Congrats, Bond.

That was a good game, congrats Bond. I felt it was a bit anti climatic at the end, but you knew the game was over once the 4th down was done with.

On the other hand, what the fuck happened at the half time show? That may have been the single worst live "performance" I have ever heard in my life. The whole show was a huge embarrassment, including Slash.

Honestly, watching it again... I don't see what people thought was so bad about it.

I found it to be one of the more entertaining halftime shows in the last 5-8ish years. IMO the last three ones were worse.

I think they should keep letting people who do "pop" handle the show, and not these lame rock bands. It's supposed to be entertaining and flashy, not just a lame music preformance... that's how I see it anyway. lol

You should never expect the half time show to be great. It's always going to be some band who has like 15 minutes to do as much crap as possible. It's never going to be a concert or anything. All in all I thought this one was fine.

Personally, I don't understand why they even have a band play at halftime. I mean, alright - obviously I understand - but logic of putting on a good show would dictate that you want something that everyone will enjoy, not just some, a handful, or even half will.

I'd just like to see a super awesome marching band or something. I know that really isn't part of pro football's tradition, but a super great marching band would be sweet.

Also, I'm happy for my dad who is a lifelong Packer fan, but I was pretty bummed again this year seeing another team that isn't the Eagles celebrating. Maybe the Flyers and Phillies can bring the parades this year.

I totally support switching to a full marching band show. They could even do lights. Marching bands kick ass....nothing is more cool than seeing a drum line or hundreds of Brass and Woodwind instruments cranking out the Imperial March.

Whether or not your gravitate towards hip hop or rock, there is no denying that the sound was awful at the Superbowl. The mics were way too loud, Firgie was yelling into her microphone, the two other singers were off beat and out of tune, the autotune was out of tune....I'm sure the sound engineer got fired.
