Flippen the bird...

[5Stars]

How did you like that singer with Madonna last night flipping the bird and saying "I don't give a ****" during the performance?

:laugh2:

I flipped her right back. :laugh2:

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

It was moronic. You got hundreds of lil kids watching and you flip someone off? As Mark Jackson would say you're better than that!!!!!

[jwitten82]

I didnt see that, but it's no big deal

[JonJon]

That was pretty moronic of her (M.I.A. is her name).

[Chuck 54]

It's the song...same thing in videos...kids see and hear worse than that every single day in their video games and even at school.

[5Stars]

I didnt see that, but it's no big deal

Two hours and 8 minutes into the game is where she threw the finger and said those words...


:laugh2:

[big dog cowboy]

Classless.

[Faerluna]

I watched the whole thing pretty attentively and I didn't even notice it. If it hadn't been made such a big deal, many probably wouldn't have known about it.

[CATCH17]

It was so staged too. She just did that so people would be talking about her today.

[TheCount]

lol, I thought it was great.

The only reason I got such a laugh out of it is because the censor button guy "missed it by that much", I could just imagine him jumping out of his chair to hit the button just a half second too late.

[sacase]

Didn't bother me one bit. Hell I didn't even notice it and I saw the blur and I thought...wow the censor must have missed something, but I dont' know what. Don't really care about bit, its part of her song....oh well.

:laugh2:


Yeah, I laughed at it too. Right after the "bird" the screen became blurred for about a second or two.

But, it was said that during all the rehearsals nobody ever saw her do that, but during the game, she flipped it off!

[Dallas]

Word is that MIA signed the contract stating that they would be responsible for any sort of shennanigans that transpired from their specific performances, including any fines from it.

I haven't seen verbatum words yet, but thats whats in the air atm.

NBC w/ its hooks got off the last NipGate fine from JJ's performance but it appears this time might be a bit different.

If true and they get smacked w/ a hefty fine, at least MIA would be on the hook.

Hope it was worth it. Not like MIA is anything anymore.

1 shot wonders usually reach reach reach...but never get off the ground after that 1st single.

Kinda funny the probable outcome.

[Romo 2 Austin]

The halftime show this year was much better than last year, last year was just pathetic.

[TheCount]

She's still pretty popular with the crowd that's actually into her music, the only song of hers that ever become a mega hit was Paper Planes, which was already a hit but really blew up because of Slum Dog Millionaire.

For the people that actually like her and know her music, her flipping the bird is not at all surprising. That's her.

Umm no shes not. Shes popular in Britain maybe but here in the states the sales comparison at least is NOT what you wish to imply.

And don't think I don't appreciate her music, I do. But the band isn't near as popular as they once were, which was my entire point.

I've actually never ever heard of the skank...

:laugh2:

I did it at about the 3-1/2 hour mark

[MonsterD]

You guys should look a little at her background. I remember reading some of this stuff years ago before Paper Planes.

[jimmy40]

what's more concerning is how many of you watched the halftime show.

What did you do? Mow the lawn?

:laugh2:


I hear you...but, I had to watch the halftime show.

It was actually pretty good! But, damn, I bet it cost a ton of money on production! The outfits that they wore, the graphics, the whole scene! :eek:

And the NFL paid for all of that?


:confused:

No commercials? It's one of the few times of the year I enjoy watching commercials! Some are great, some are bad. But it's fun seeing what will be next.

The funniest one for me was that little dog...I forget what they named him, but he kept getting beer for everyone when they called his name.

:laugh2:

I need a you tube of that!

[Gibby!]

WeeGo!

Here WeeGo!

I want a dog like that...

[jimmy40]

But it's fun seeing what will be next.I just couldn't stomach 3 1/2 hours of Giants/Pats, plus I stayed at home since I had to be at work at 4am. I have watched a couple commercials on youtube that I heard about. I've never been able to stand Madonna so I'll pass on that.

[Cythim]

No idea who she is but I did hear her drop the f-bomb. I missed the bird because I really wasn't paying attention. Pathetic that an entertainer can't show a single ounce of professionalism.

[Muhast]

Yep that was good! I loved when he rolled out the keg for the big group.

Also like the Doritos dog commercial where he bribed his owner to not say anything about him burying the cat "You didn't see nuthin" lol.

And the Fiat commercial where the guy has a hot model seducing him and you think they are about to kiss and then it turns out to just be the car.

And finally the new Acura commercial with Jerry Seinfeld was pretty good.

[silverbear]

It was moronic. You got hundreds of lil kids watching and you flip someone off? As Mark Jackson would say you're better than that!!!!!

Except she isn't...

[vta]

Maybe the NFL should just can the nonsense and let the game be a game. 15 minute break and back to it. I'm not a prude, but I like to keep my football and my imbecile observation separate.

Between commercials after every on-field fart and this ****, football is fast becoming something to avoid.

They should bring in the best local HS marching bands and donate whatever they were going to pay for the show to the schools.

[trickblue]

The halftime show this year was much better than last year, last year was just pathetic.

This year was equally pathetic...

I actually like a lot of Madonna's earlier stuff. Her performance last night was very stiff... in the tradition of a 53 year old trying to look 23... I was disappointed...

[vta]

Awesome idea.

[CliffnMesquite]

:laugh2:

I declined to watch the halftime show. But had I watched it, given the source. It wouldn't have surprised me.

[PullMyFinger]

I have no problem with it, kids hear way worse in school.

Too many thin skinned people in this country. Being an American used to carry weight and had a fear factor about it. Now people go to a foreign country and say that theyre Americans, theyre laughed at.

This country has become a fat woman laying on the couch wearing a mu-mu and eating bonbons.

But I digress and get off my soapbox now, this is a football forum after all.

They hear and do worse in school because no one gives a rats *** anymore to not let things like this happen. Freaking pathetic.

What do you think I mean she is still popular to her crowd? She's a UK artist that hasn't dropped an album in 2 years while she was having a kid, you are measuring her popularity off current album sales of a CD dropped in 2010? Also, there is no band. She's a solo artist.

you would tap Madonna if given the chance

[Joe Realist]

If you listened closely, Nicky Minaj used the n-word

If I can't watch a football game live, there's like no reason to watch it...I can't get into cheering or hollering at all if a game isn't live, that's awful. HOW CAN YOUR CHEERS EFFECT THE OUTCOME IF IT'S NOT LIVE!?

As for the Halftime show. It was the best since JJ's Nipple, and has nothing to do with the OP event. I thought Madonna seemed stiff, and a bit too old for the type of performance she was giving, but overall It seemed like an oldschool halftime show. The best part about them used to be the fact that there were Multiple artists with a mix of genres. That really hasn't happened since the JJ event.


And as for the actual bird flipping that happened. I just can't be bothered to care and I don't understand why anyone else does either. Words are words and stuff like this is just that. It's not important and would be a non issue if so much emphasis wasn't put on crap like this.

[kimrose]

I loved the half time show. Been a fan of Madonna's music for near 30 years now. She is one heck of a performer. As for her being 53, I would consider myself lucky if I was half as in shape and gorgeous as she is when I get to that age--which isn't very far for me now.:( Maybe that's why I can appreciate her so much more than the younger crowd. She works very hard, hours every day, to maintain her level of performance and looks. There just aren't very many 53 year olds who can do flips and move like that. Heck, I'm 42 and if I tried some of those moves, I'd be in a cast. lol. And not too many that look that good in tiny outfits. lol. Give the woman some credit.

As for BirdGate, I guess I missed it. I was out of my chair, though, singing and "mildly" dancing along.:) Don't know who MIA is anyway, so whatever. Cee Lo outshined the other guests anyways. Except for the dude on the rope. He was awesome.

um your cheers from your coach have no effect on the outcome regardless of whether the game is live or not

She put on a good show. It was 1000x better than last year. It would have been better if she hadn't lip syncd all of it.

Yeah, I was disappointed with the lip syncing aspect, but it did make the singing along with her easier on me, hey! Other than that, the show was great. I guess it would be hard to sing properly when you are jumping around so much.:p:

I was embarrassed by her "antics". I hope she chooses not to come back here. Y'alls are welcome to her.

[arglebargle]

Some folks just love to be upset.
