NFL 2013-2014: Snow Plow to the Super Bowl

These guys are not playing the Super Bowl halftime show this year:
Have Love, Will Travel - The Sonics - YouTube

This is your weekly reminder that it is Bruno Mars.

 

[corianderstem]

With, apparently, the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Super Bowl 25:

Performer(s): New Kids on the Block, Disney characters, Warren Moon, 2,000 local children, audience card stunt

goddamn it I hope this is on YouTube

Notes: The airing of this halftime show was delayed until after the conclusion of the game due to ABC News coverage of Operation Desert Storm

Actually U2, Prince and Beyonce may be the three best. Not a lot of great choices, unless you adore marching bands.

Well that was amazing.

I'm serious. I wish the halftime shows were still like that. The focus on one band lately has been a bit bland.

Also, I really wanna gif the zoom in on that super awkward kid at 8:20.

[Danny Boy]

How is Bruno Mars going to play quarterback for the Seahawks and perform at halftime?

Note as MJ magically moves from top of scoreboard #2 to center stage that he changes shirts, and of course his speech at 8:50 "no one should have to suffer, especially our children".

With, apparently, the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

 

[corianderstem]

Meh.

 

[Dalton]

With all the other stuff surrounding his life and legacy, it's easy to forget how amazing MJ was a performer.

 

[deep]

Will Newton get injured?

 

[bono_212]

Thank God for something worth watching, but what on Earth is that combo?

 

[phanan]

Would have liked to have seen a bootleg by Newton there on third down.

 

[mikal]

I just hope those failed goal line plays don't come back to haunt Carolina. So far the look like the best team on the NFC side this weekend.

Mars can get funky and so can the RHCP. Should be a good halftime show.

You raise a valid point. I just really don't like Mars. His most recent album has some worthwhile stuff on it, so that bodes well for what his set will be.

 

[bono_212]

UGH. Oh well, I hate the Panthers, but man, I'm so sour on the 49ers right now.

 

[LemonMelon]

Cam is back on the bench with a towel over his head.

Winning changes everything.

 

[Hewson]

Carolina looked like they were trying to bleed the clock the entire 2nd half while trailing.

 

[mobvok]

This game is going to be gigantic

 

[corianderstem]

I'm nervous already.

 

[speedracer]

As a fan of an AFC team, I'm hoping for an exciting NFC championship game that features about ten or twelve overtimes and results in several players from both teams perishing honorably on the field.

 

[corianderstem]

Well, most of the south-of-downtown-Seattle area is built on landfill and that's where the stadium is, so if The Big One hits during the game, there could be some honorable perishing.

 

[trojanchick99]

Niners and Seahawks in the NFC Championship. I'm not going to survive that game.

[corianderstem]

The game next week starts at 3:30 Pacific Time. A non-sports-loving-friend's birthday party is at 5:30.

I, uh, may have just asked him for permission and/or forgiveness to bail on the party.

Spoiler

He freely gave it.

My girlfriend is a big fan of his so I have listened to a lot of his stuff the last few years. I'm looking forward to his performance. He and his group know how to put on a show. Plus, I'm a big RHCP fan, so I'm doubly stoked.

When he performed Gorillas at the VMAs last year, I thought that was really excellent. With the Half Time show budget, there should be some great visuals.

And I love the RHCP.
