I always watch, no matter what. It's must see TV for me, from the pregame to the anthem, the game itself, commercials, and yes, halftime.
Can't think of a game where the two participants meant less to me. At no time in my life have I ever pulled for either of those teams in any way shape or form. I imagine most have KC fatigue with them being in so many Super Bowls, Mahomes, Kelce and Reid being in almost as many commercials as Saban, and of course, Taylor Swift.
Philly? I think anybody who pays attention would agree universally that they have the most vile, disgusting, sub-human fans on the planet. Can't pull for them in tiddlywinks.
Suffice it to say, I had no interest in a winner. But, it's the Super Bowl, and I'm watching. Turned out to be a pretty crappy game, unless you're a Eggsles fan. Guess I was okay with them winning, just to stop all the KC love.
Commercials were pretty entertaining. And then there was halftime. My Lawt!
I have to admit that it seems each and every year, we tend to say this was the worst show ever. Rhianna was one of my least favorites last year, but at least I was familiar with most of her songs. Kendrick Lamar? Hands down the biggest pile of garbage halftime show in history.
I scanned the social medias last night to see if was alone. I wasn't. Those that defended the performance all made the same attempt to justify it. "If you hated it, you're just old and white." Well yes, I am old and white. But, how could I even try to find something redeeming in it, when I literally could not understand one word that came out of his mouth? That sentiment was the consensus.
I knew it was going to be hit or miss, because I admit, I knew nothing about him or his music going in. But I tried to keep an open mind. All I saw was a hundred people hopping around in their pajamas, and all I heard was wibby dibby blippy flibby shibby wappa bloppa dabba doo. Every single song. Wait, I take all that back. I did hear him say "Turn off the TV" a bunch of times on his last song. That should have been his opener. I would have taken his advice.
Guess I'm just white, and old.
