It's way too early to be making such pronouncements.

(102,225 posts)at least it was R&B and not rap (sorry Rap fans, but I'm happy to have something with melody for once)...
As for the game... sigh...

(2,203 posts)the vocals were rather buried - unless it is my system? anyone else?

ProfessorGAC
(64,995 posts)I said a half dozen times "Fire the sound tech."
They got everything balanced half way through the last song. The bass was still too weak, though.
He sounded like he was singing 10 feet from the mike until then.
Imagine how rotten it would have sounded if they needed to balance a whole band!
And, I'm listening through a $5,000 surround sound system. Still sounded awful.

(41,959 posts)The sound was off, which is awful for such a huge venue. The Weekend isnt my cuppa particularly but hes talented.

(3,623 posts)As to the performance itself, I share your sentiment.

(36,775 posts)Alas! We'll never see another wardrobe malfunction.

(3,623 posts)And, it just got a little worse.
Still not as bad as those blowouts we saw 30-40 years ago. Like XXII, when Denver was up 10-0 after one and then Doug Williams dropped five TDs on them in the second quarter. Oof. My Mom was/is a Denver, fan, she still hasn't recovered.

(31,261 posts)for something like 230 years, then disappeared forever. Yes, Doug Williams was excellent, after almost getting his ankle broken during a sack by Denver in the first quarter. I still have the Sports Illustrated issue done after that game.

(29,322 posts)At least Bruce Arians will have won a Super Bowl ring as head coach. He is probably one of the best head coaches the Cardinals ever had.
Blue_true
(31,261 posts)receiver that they had, Fitzgerald, by not constantly putting a host of good players around him. He should have had at least one ring. They made one Super Bowl and that was it.
Deuxcents
(16,190 posts)So far it sucks. Here in SW Florida, we get Tom Brady on overload n Im not a fan. He gets 960,865$ in stimulus money b/c of his foundation and he buys a million dollar boat n flaunts it. A 50million dollar a year contract n he buys a boat. I really dont begrudge anyone their money..but stimulus money for those really hurting? My friends say Im a crybaby liberal. O well... I just was hoping for a good game. The kitty bowl was better today.

eissa
(4,238 posts)But the commercials sucked ass, and the anthem performance was the worst Ive ever heard, and Im including Roseann Barrs rendition.
Takket
(21,560 posts)i was rooting for tampa but wanted KC to at least make a game of it, and they have been completely disinterested in the second half.

(29,674 posts)For obvious reasons.
I think with the accident, the almost exposure of half the team over haircuts, covid in general, an odd season,etc they just weren't there.
Heck, even Mahomes has made half serious jokes about how Brittany needs to hold off on their baby for another week or two. First time dad, multi states away and baby could come soon-mind isn't there.
