I guess I'm in the minority, but that was one of the first Super Bowl halftime shows I've ever seen that I enjoyed.

The "Hey Jude" part of the halftime show was good, in my opinion.

My wife made me watch it.

I feel the same way, which is why I'm not at a Super Bowl party. I hate hearing people who are always saying how dumb it is to run up the middle, or on one play earlier in the year when someone said, 'why was the defensive end all the way back there,' when he'd gotten a pick off a zone blitz. I tried explaining the concept behind it and the response was, 'well that's dumb to put a lineman in coverage,' even though the guy had just made the INT.

That and when watching football I prefer to be able to look at the game stats from sportsline.

In my opinion, you've overanalyzed the purpose of this halftime show. I *could* be wrong, but I really doubt it. If he were playing the halftime show to promote a concert CD or new material, I'd agree with you. But to play some of his old songs to an old(er) crowd and allow them to enjoy a nice, easy halftime show...that's the best thing the NFL could've done with this year's show.

You mention that there's only one other surviving Beatle then say I'm overanalyzing?

I'm aware of the situation that's why I said it ain't gonna happen but to be technical since Paul was the first beatle to die they should have had Ringo up there singing.

Since I happen to like McCartney I'd have been happy if he'd just stuck to his own work. I really wasn't thinking about the promote himself angle. I was happy to see that he was performing and would have beeen into it but when he started with Beatles stuff it turned me off. Again, it could just be me.

Eagles have only 1 penalty. That number has to go up some time.

Heh. I just retreated back into here at the end of the quarter. Yes, he's one of the 6 or 8 consecutive Tucker High tailbacks to go D-1, and the only one (so far) to stick in the NFL. He has a *very* interesting story. Remind me to post more about it later on, but I need to go back in there with the kiddies.

Weis has made some nice calls on this drive. Glad to see the Pats stick with the run for an entire drive.

Dillon has to be an early candidate for mvp.. Its Either him or Brady IMO.

I voted for Branch (before that catch). His touches have been huge. I'm still not sure NE wins though.

As for now I'd go Harrison, Gay, Branch, Dillon. But if Brady gets another TD pass here, I see everyone voting for him, which means I hope there's more than just fan voting rather there's a commitee and the fan vote counts for 1 for the winner, should Philly have some sort of comeback in the last couple minutes.

But it could be Dillon. It's certainly not anyone on Philly's defense

Also, I'd say Harrison for my vote, but I expect Brady. I kinda hate how the defense does well or the offensive line has a great game, it's a collective effort. But if the passing game goes well, it's a fantastic performance by the QB.
