The Who Leaves The Super Bowl Halftime Show Wanting Sexy Back
By: Ryan Sayler
I have never regretted public nudity so much. Ever since Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" the Super Bowl Half Time Show has felt more like an episode of Lost with all of the time traveling back to the 70's. We have gone from Kiss to Aerosmith to Bruce Springstein and now The Who. Do not get me wrong, I have all the respect in the world for what these artists did in the music industry. The keyword in that sentence is "did", not "music". As much as what Justin Timberlake did to Janet Jackson's outfit was inappropriate, it every bit as entertaining as well. The fans were shocked, but happy. Fans under the age of 40 were actually paying attention. These are all things the halftime show has not seen in a long time. This year, the entertainment went from Queen Latiffah doing "America the Beautiful" to Carrie Underwood singing the National Anthem, and then The Who. One of these things is not like the other (and in no way is that a racial slur). The NFL party planning committee needs to get off of it's high horse of regret and start bringing in the big, current names again. Why would they not bring in the Grammy-nominated Dave Matthews Band this year? Fun for everyone and almost no chance of boobs. Heck, I would have even settled for another Brett Favre "Pants on the Ground" rendition before I was forced to sit through another "I loved the 80's" moment. Unfortunately for us though, the only person Justin Timberlake will beat to the Super Bowl is Phillip Rivers.
