After more than three quarters of hard nosed defense, the last 3 minutes of the game really made this one of the best Super Bowls ever and the greatest upset in Super Bowl history. One thing I don’t get is why the New England Patriots didn’t spend more time protecting the franchise quarterback. It’s hard to make plays when you are getting hit or hurried roughly 70% of the time you try to throw. Big ups to the Giants D-line.
There goes 19-0 and there goes perfection right down the toilet. It seems even more bitter considering they got to the top of the record books in almost all of the major categories. I guess the higher you are, the bigger the dent you make when you bust your ass on the floor. Oh well there is always next season.
Aside from the game itself.
Because of one wardrobe malfunction at the 2004 Superbowl, better known as “Nipplegate“, we are still being subjected to ultraconservative knock you out quicker than a bottle of melatonin halftime shows. Come on Fox!, Tom Petty? I know the FCC got your balls in a vise about keeping it clean but seriously, Tom fucking Petty?
I am not exactly knocking on Tom Petty himself, I personally like some of his music, especially Free Fallin, but I can’t believe this is the best selection for the half time show of a potentially historic Superbowl (Edit: Historic Superbowl).
The only “old” people that should be performing are “icons” in the industry, other than that keep it fresh, keep it young, and keep it entertaining. I literally passed out trying to watch the half time show. If it wasn’t for the good looking girls they hired to run down towards the stage and lipsynch to Petty’s songs I would have passed out. I like how the cameras keep on zooming into the crowd and especially on the girls as to say “look everybody, girls like Tom Petty’s old ass and so should you.” While watching the half time show I couldn’t help but wonder where they were hiding the teleprompter which scrolls Tom Petty’s lyrics.
