    Where's Tina Turner when you need her? She looked great and had all the moves, but she also sang a song that had real lyrics that you could remember.

    The only thing That could have saved her performance was a wardrobe malfunction. I was praying for one but no luck.

    Hot... Hell YES!!! Singing and musicianship not even close. She should have lip-sinc'd this one too.

    All that was missing was the stripper pole....

    I kept up a distracting conversation with my family during that show.....not something I would want a 'family' to watch...

    The opening bit held promise but when she started that up and down and all around stuff instead of just singing the damn song offered me a chance to sneak up on the wife in the kitchen. I can say I enjoyed MY halftime show.

    Never cared for her music. I think she's a hell of an entertainer, but I just have no interest.

    Yea, this is what the game has come to....halftime and ads....the chow being served where I was,was better than that over produced dribble they call talent! I guess they have to let the halftime show dominate cause they know the game will be as boring as it is! Remember when the Superbowl was actually about the game?

    It looked like a sleazy strip club show (not that I have ever been to one).

    Beautiful women with beautiful voices, but do they really have to dress like hookers and stomp around, squatting and grabbing their crotches to get noticed?

    This has always been a pet peeve of mine. Not so much the Monday holiday part, but the fact the game is on a Sunday. The NFL wants it to be a party, but who parties if they have to work the next day? :rolleyes:

    Agreed.

    I'm normally not one to be a stick in the mud, but I thought that show was fairly inappropriate for a general family audience, unless the super bowl isn't intended to be a family deal.

    I thought the 49ers coach's vein popping floor show over the no holding call was much better choreographed.... and way more entertaining ! :eek: :lol: ( I'm sure he's never carried on so much when a bad call has gone his way !)

    I love how everybody is all over Harbaugh being so pissed at that call, like no other coach has ever done that. Those were both terrible no calls and both inconsistent with the way the game had been called up to that point, he had every right to be pissed. And no of course he wouldn't be pissed if they went his way, and neither would any other coach in the NFL, that's for the coach on the short end of the call to do.

    Look at all these coaches that are so respected in NFL history, many of them would and have reacted the same way. Tell me Ditka or Parcells or Johnson wouldn't have reacted that way...
