Watched the Superbowl yesterday with friends.
The game had impressive defenses on both sides and the Patriot's offense couldn't rise to the occasion. Former Michigan State Spartan K-9 Ken Walker put in some serious work for the Seahawks to win but otherwise it did not feel like a particularly exciting game.
The half-time show was worse than the game.
All in Spanish, with lewd lyrics at that, complete with the Bad Bunny busily and repeatedly clutching his crotch, along with some shots of male dancers grinding on each other.
Not exactly representative of America.
It was, however, an interesting tale of Puerto Rican culture:
It showed Puerto Ricans transition from working in the fields, to opening a bodega in New York City, then falling through a roof for some reason, and then getting shocked to death after trying to steal copper from a power line atop a pole - all the while grabbing your crotch with one hand (which could explain how you got shocked to death stealing copper) - and then marching with a bunch of latin american country's flags during the funeral for the dead thief.
That may not have been the actual story.
But, with everything in Spanish* that seemed to be the best explanation for what was going on.
*except for Lady Gaga's lyrics -- and due to the sound mixing her lyrics did not really come through at all and couldn not be heard which may well have been deliberate.
In short, the half time show was not exactly directed to the Superbowl and football fan audience at all. Jay Z needs to turn over the half time show selection power to soemone that actually gets the fans and football. Just saying.

And things like that are the reason I haven't watched a Superbowl, or for that matter a Pro football game, in close to 10 years. Bunch of overpaid thugs.

The people who paid for it need to be shot.
Or failing that, at least beaten profusely.
This was part of the attempt to normalize things, make them mainstream. Rather than uphold traditional (and mainstream) American values...based upon white culture (that made America what it is) and instead undermine that culture with another lesser culture (in this case, Puerto Rican)...there's a reason that PR is a shithole.
But they want to make that and other cultures seem normal, and undermine the one that works....
It's a part of the long game to Make America Less.
Same folks that encourage unlimited and unvetted "Immigration" for the same reason.
