We had some friends over Sunday to watch the game and what a game! I wanted the Steelers to win going into the game but thought it was great to see Aaron Rodgers get a ring that he definitely deserved. The steelers just didn't look prepared the whole game and when players had to dig deep, Green Bay answered the call, well done to the Packers.
On the flip side, the "entertainment" portion of the broadcast was the worst I have ever seen. Maybe three good commercials but to be fair I did have to change the channel several times because of inappropriate content like the commercial for "Just Go With It", Every Go Daddy spot, the teleflora ad, and maybe one or two others. We had three kids under the age of 10 and two teenage boy in the room; it's disappointing that we can't just let the game go and we have to guard the remote during a football game. With respect to the National Anthem, Christina Aguilera can sing well, but if you forget the words you will go down as sucking. That song doesn't need anyone's vocal gymnastics, leave it alone. When people flub that song I feel it in my gut, very disappointing.
Now, the halftime show. Let me admit I have still never heard the Black-eyed peas perform in a normal situation. They suck, bad. Half of the problem definitely wasn't them, the sound was total crap and I am sure some dude got canned. The saving moments had to be Slash and Usher stepping in for a moment to show people what a musician can do. I went to you tube and watched some of the old performances and have to say that Michael Jackson in 1993, U2 in 2002, and Prince are still the best I have seen. I don't even listen to their music but their shows seemed to really hit the nail on the head.
The suckage of the entertainment made the game that much better.
