“The Greatest Superbowl Halftime Show Ever”
February 15, 2022
That’s how the young woman TV announcer pretending to know something about football said at the end of the first half of the super bowl about the show that was about to start. I didn’t catch the show and so I missed out on seeing “Dr.Dre,” whose big claim-to-fame “rap” hit was “Bitches Ain’t Shit” (But hos and tricks, the lyrics go). By the way, has the National Organization for Women published its annual “study” yet of how there’s an uptick of domestic violence against women (er, I mean in NFL speak, “bitches”) after every super bowl? I also missed out on “50 Cent” shouting “F**k Trump!” to an audience of millions. Now that’s entertainment.
