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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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 ).

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

VW/Vader commercial AWESOME

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

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?

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.
