    So wait, you’re going to try and run a second concert in competition with the super bowl halftime show, and still associate it with the super bowl/NFL?

    The lawyers are going to eat them alive for the fees.

      Football can be described in so many fun ways.

      Years ago when my rep was cosponsoring some bill about how video games were killing children my buddy sent him a letter. I don’t remember the exact contents but it pointed out the rich history in Texas of folks wearing different colors violently defending their turf from rivals. Schools are training high schoolers to how to be in a gang as a sponsored activity every Friday evening.

      If I told someone I had a video of muscular dudes in spandex pants wrestling around with each other in the mud, they’d think I never miss pride events, but tell them its the most recent superbowl and suddenly…

        Sports are called “foot” ball because they involve running and aren’t played on horses. And “ball” doesn’t mean “sphere”

        I don’t watch association, Australian, rugby or American football, but you’ve bothered the etymologist in me with your nonsense suggestion.

    So what’s it going to be? Kid Rock singing about how Trump is God’s chosen president while a group of “liberals” (ie: non conservatives) they captured off the streets get forced to pray to Jesus in the direction of Mar-a-Lago?

    These fuckers remind me of the type of people who only let their kids watch “Christian” television.

    It’s not gay, it’s brown. Or is Bad Bunny also gay? I have no idea, and I don’t care who he loves. I’m tuning in for the music and the dancing. I’m not a fan, but I’m sure it’ll be a good show.

      Isn’t noted band with an openly bisexual lead singer Green Day performing as the opening act?

      Actually a few of the acts are openly queer, or explicitly queer-friendly? Or, like Bad Bunny, planning to perform in a dress to pay homage to drag. So yeah, it’s pretty gay (affectionate)

      Although the jury is still out as to whether Bad Bunny is gay or not, he has announced that he is going to perform the halftime show wearing a dress, in solidarity with Puerto Rico‘s rich history of drag queens.

      So, yeah. That.

      It’s gonna be the Kid Rock and Hulk Hogan “it’s not gay because we said ‘no homo’ circle jerk spectacular” featuring George Santos.

      Kid Rock and Ted Nugent would be my guess. But I mean, you could swing a dead cat and hit like six or seven country/western singers who hate dark-skinned and/or LGBTQ+ Americans in a given honky-tonk, so they’ll have no shortage of talent. And, make no mistake, some of these people are talented… but if they just use that talent to try to further divide the poor people for the benefit of the wealthy, I don’t think they are worthy of my attention.
