Lurker Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 The NFL could care less if football fans watch the SB.   Especially older, MAGA ones.   They're marketing to a younger, more diverse demographic that watches a limited amount of football and is more likely to tune in for the commercials than the game.  That's what advertisers are paying for and that's who the NFL is thinking of with it's halftime show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually listen to rap and didnt know who Travis Scott was. Then again im 35 and "old" now I guess. He is a generic young rapper who sounds like 95% of generic rappers out there ?

If Metallica was doing the halftime show I would just watch the half time show then turn it off. I'm the same way ... I'll only watch the patriots when they play the Bills. I've passed on two straight Super Bores and will likely be passing on a 3rd. GO CHIEFS !!!!! I'd pass on Maroon 5 and some rapper even if the patriots aren't in the game, but you know they'll be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4_kidd_4 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I’ll be at fam’s house in Canada for the SB, I’m pretty sure they splice in Bachman-Turner Overdrive instead of the US version of the halftime show.  What with the trade war and all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonCents Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I watched the link above of his live performance. I have heard of him before but didn’t know his love shows got so much hype. I remember being a kid and watching Method Man and Redman  float over the crowd singing How High.  Kids these days think a great show is someone screaming randomly into a mic.  Awesome. Should get some laughs at halftime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I understand every single facet of the argument. At will employment etc. It's been hashed out enough and this isn't the proper venue. I will say that I'm against all forms of censorship or PC policing whether they emanate from the left, right, or center. Live and let live.

dave mcbride Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I imagine many here will hate this, but it's hardly autotune pop. I think he's a weird choice for the SB (given that he's best known for acid rap), but then again Prince released some pretty crazy stuff over the years. It's not really my thing, but I have to confess that I think it's pretty good for the genre.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure, but that makes more sense at the track itself. We were a sportsbook and the race handle was not great/very sporadic. No way to allocate enough time for a writer(glorified cashier) to educate.  And no matter how hard I'd try to steer them in the direction of "take a horse to win," they'd glance at the screen and want to know what the hell a .10 superbox was or why the show price was so sh***y. Drunk as hell but wanna know how to do a tri-key!  Wouldn't have been a big deal, but I had people breathing down my neck because the Kentucky game was about to start. Good times, but I digress.
