I was just discussing last night, as I watched what would appear to be a Victoria’s Secret concert that split time between a super boring first half of football and a power outage for the better part of an hour, that the Super Bowl is for people who don’t usually like football. The only reason Beyonce or Madonna would be doing the half time is that my assertion is true. Normal football fans are not generally Madonna fans. The pre-game for the Super Bowl is always filled with tons of human interest stories about the players. Many other games have these human interest stories (see Manti Te’o) but the Super Bowl ramps it up like crazy.
Well here is a video that spells out pretty well how they actually do things:
There is so much to hate about the Super Bowl, but I still watch because it is my last chance to see football until the fall after being tortured through the summer by baseball and other boring games.
