Walter Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 Super Bowl Sunday!! Heading to a neighbors house for a party later today. No dog in this fight, but pulling for KC for a few reasons, mainly looking forward to a good game and a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baltimore was in the playoffs last year. San Francisco was in last place. They went from last place to the Super Bowl. I know the award is based on regular season but still, Harbaugh has had two straight first-round playoff exits...and he was out-coached in both.

Strider Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Who else watched Kansas City matriculate down the field in Super Bowl IV in 1970? I never would have thought it would be 50 years before the Chiefs made it back to the Super Bowl. But, as a Raider fan I'm happy for their drought and I hope San Francisco continues the Chiefs' title drought. When the Raiders aren't in the Super Bowl (18 years and counting), I usually transfer my allegiance to the AFC representative...Miami, New England, Pittsburgh. Except for when it is one of my division rivals...Kansas City, Denver, and San Diego. I will never root for them in the Super Bowl. Besides, what the fuck is going on with Kansas City being in Missouri? Missouri already has St. Louis and they get to claim Kansas City over Kansas, too? That's some weird-assed map-making. So, go '49ers!!! 🏈🏈🏈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the KC/Oakland rivalry, do you remember Ben Davidson (I believe) spearing Lenny Dawson in his back, while Dawson was on the turf? Then Otis Taylor went after Ben Davidson for the cheap shot.

Strider Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 "Kashmir" during the halftime show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My critique (for what its worth...you decide): Shakira's set started strong, peaking with the Kashmir snippet. I thought for a moment Shakira was going for a truly monumental and different performance. After Kashmir she went into a middle eastern theme for about 30 seconds (still going strong, good job Shakira), then, WTF??? She segues into a greatest hits medley that was both rushed and bland. BONUS POINTS: Shakira actually sang her set, it was not a taped vocal. Then comes J-Lo. She did not sing her set, she mimed to a pre-recorded track and emphasized her dancing instead (she did have a live mic though so she could do shout outs occasionally but overall, her set was rather lame. Final assessment - I give it two out of five footballs, one of which was deflated. Edited February 3, 2020 by PeaceFrogYum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shakira's been pushing that multicultural diversity and inclusion bullshit for awhile, so I knew she would deliver a grab bag and not an authentic Columbian performance that made her a star in the first place. Nope, it was like Aerosmith in 2020 -- got to try to be all things to all people in six minutes. JLo's performance isn't even worth discussing, and overall this halftime show probably tied Up With People for the worst ever. NFL needs to come up with a completely new concept for the halftime show. It's gotten to the point where I miss the marching bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year will be Up with People ver2.0 featuring J-Lo and a Mariachi band. If they truly wanted a SMOKING halftime show, they need to book Gogol Bordello.

It got worked into Shakira's set because 1) it sounds ethnic 2) it checks the box for the demographic who actually know what song it is.
