NFL Should Apologize
 
What a damn embarrassment. Instead of messing with the arrangement she should have learned the words. I hope the NFL doesn't have to pay since she didn;t know the words. The NFL should apologize to the Nation.

Did you see the look on the oversees troops faces...what a shame.

Honest mistake. I'm sure she's not all that happy about it herself.

Uh.... no. Inexcusable. Period.

That wasn't even close to the way FSK wrote it!

For some, clearly it is not important.

:rollem:

Surely such a celebrated and accomplished professional shouldn't make such a mistake, right?

BasicPatrick 02-06-2011 09:21 PM

I bet good money someone had to tell her she blew it...she probably thought she did a good job.

Yep....agree 100%...that was her only job tonight...you need to get it right.

and WTF was that half time show.....I'm thinking Larry would have preferred The Who

BasicPatrick 02-06-2011 11:31 PM

I liked the halftime show. They sand live and I liked that. The Guns and Roses thing with Slash was good for the Rock fans and the USher thing was for the hip hop side of life and they get entertainment as well. I liked the TRON visual theme as it was better than watching another over the hill living off a record made fifteen years ago anyone poorly lip sync old hits.

Me too

Only thing I found redeeming about the halftime show was Fergie......she's pretty smokin....other than that I thought it was pretty lame...live don't neccesarily mean good.

Raven 02-07-2011 07:13 AM

didn't see her
 
couldn't stand that crap that was on.....

JohnR 02-07-2011 08:44 AM

B.E.P. - was pretty good, not excellent. I txt Patrick about the Fergie/Slash, knowing he is a major fan of both :rotf2:

Gripes and likes; (Breaking out into another thread here)

Was surprised to see Bono in one of the clips about being American. To the best of my recollection he is merely critical of Americans while making huge coin off of them, and not a US citizen (regardless of the fact that he had the best 1/2 time show evah because the Pats won :tooth: ).

Commercials: Averaged a great than normal stink factor - not much funny.

VW/Vader commercial AWESOME :btu:

JackK 02-07-2011 09:57 AM

Didn't CA mess up the anthem a couple of years ago at the nba finals as well?

I agree that she's hot and has an incredible voice. Her performance up until the gaff was great. It was clear she knew she effed up immediately, just look at her face...pretty impressive that she was able to keep her composure and finish.

What I don't understand is the notion that she's somehow slighted the entire country. As a professional I'm sure she's beyond embarrassed at her mistake. It was unfortunate. Doesn't mean she still didn't sing her heart out for the good old USA.

Halftime show was a joke BTW. They should just have U2 play every year :biglaugh:

I really liked the tire ad with the beaver paying the guy back. So that was nice of the beaver.

:rotf2: Yeh, right (though I shouldn't take the bait). I've spent a fair amount of time in other countries including one that no longer exists. I know we have a great country and that we could be doing better.

What's your excuse?

just get these guys... to do the Star Spangled Banner....

(Christine Hot?.. man... yech.. the Bloom is def off that rose...)

ska-roo the advertising..and can most of the friggin chatter from the announcers.. get it back to being about football!!!
just air the game, not the past 3 plays we missed..because they were showing/yapping about something else.

Absolutely right. That's all she had to do and she winged it. In my world we call them "Hacks". The song sung properly is a challenge to a trained voice, no need to add bullshirt. BTW the tune was a drinking tune not a snorting tune, 'Tina.

Backbeach Jake 02-07-2011 06:43 PM

And... in my fantasy mind,:uhuh: the Honor Guard shoots her ass...

Raider Ronnie 02-07-2011 07:03 PM

Hands down the best singing of the national anthem in my opinion, no question best of any super bowl !
