I'd love to see her and Toby do a concert together.

I'd pay real money for that one..but, anyway, back to football.

Any good prognosticating threads going on? It's Friday already!!

At least Paul M. is a step up from last year.

My favorite, Phil Keaggy, sounds a lot like Paul M. but Phil has virtually no name recognition----even though he has recorded more than 40 albums over the years.

In my opinion they should just stick with football at the superbowl.

I would like to see it all American. Shania is a canuck, and that wasn't even good enough for her, so she bailed to Switzerland with Mutt.

I'm a 58 year old guy and I'm not ashamed to say that some music brings me to tears. That song, I can't get past the first few seconds. That song is incredibly beautiful.

Since I'm not too swift with computers, does anyone know a site I can go to to hear it?

Pitt-Youngstown State fray

In which sports does Pitt play YSU? i realize since Penn State fled the Big East, that rivalry is no more, but when i was at Pitt, granted, many moons ago, we never played Youngstahn in anything!

Who needs prognosticating threads? Everyone knows that it is going to be a Corey Dillon Day.

I didn't even know about Janet Jackson until after the game.

I didn't hear about it until about five hours later myself.

dang, you are making my makeup run!

I was listening to a post game show on the radio and one of the hosts said that the NFL and CBS were issuing an apology for the "incident". I didn't know what the heck they were talking about.

The entertainment at the Super Bowl has changed over the years.

I'm with you. Not tech savvy at all and couldn't figure out how to print just that one post so I could keep those words.

Any ONE of the five you mentioned are better than ALL the 'performers' quoted in this thread.

Who crapped in your Wheaties this morning? Or is your deck short just a few cards?

What about Kristy Jackson (post # 7), Toby Keith and George Strait?

Shania is a canuck

Since I'm not anti-canuck that doesn't bother me.

I just look at her talent and all those cute little parts.

When did the network fagots and lesbians get a hold of the halftime show? This is football's finest moment - or at least it used to be...

[beyond the sea]

And.............. the pro players hate the extended, longer halftime. Stiffen up, come back on the field and there's so much smoke you can't breathe.

Yep.

[Dissident Aggressor]

All halftime shows suck. Doesn't matter who is performing. The sound is terrible, the thousands of dancing idiots twisting on the field...ugh. I'd rather watch that British streaker guy running around the 50yrd. line in his plastic thong while trying to dodge security. Now that's entertainment!

And for what it's worth, I love ZZTop, but when they did a halftime show several years ago...it sucked as bad as the rest do.

[Route101]

You bet!.....it would be a screamin half time show!....
