Superbowl XXXVII Halftime Show - Sting!?

Well I’m no big football fan, you all know that. But I did get a chance to catch the half time show at the Superbowl. (Sure I know that the term “Superbowl is a registered trademark, and that I can’t use it without "expressed written permission" and without paying royalties - but I don’t care. That’s stupid. Maybe we’ll make the term “Whitehouse” a registered trademark too!!)

Anyhow, I always enjoy a good show. You take an All-American sport like "American Football" and put a show in the middle of the whole thing, you know the show has to be good.

So I tune in – out steps Shania Twain - nice. First off let me say, "I know she is Canadian, but I’m going to ignore that fact for now." Knowing that the majority of Superbowl fans are men, this half time treat is right on the money. She’s young, talented, good looking, and dressed for maximum eye-appeal. She comes out and sings a medley of her latest and hottest songs which are still being played on both modern rock and country radio stations. Yeah, I know she lip synched, but this wasn’t a concert, it was a show! I don’t care that she lip synched, the audio at the game sucks. It sounded better with a lip synch.



Next up, the tawny hard-bodied Gwen Stefani. Once again, young, talented, good looking and dressed for maximum eye-appeal. When the camera turns to her, she is doing pushups in a midriff. She then jumps up and belts out one of her top hits. A top hit from just a year or two ago that is still getting plenty of air-play on the modern rock stations.



Now I’m thinking, the only way this could get better is if we somehow get these two to wrestle topless. But instead the good folks at the Superbowl XXXVII, have something else in mind – Sting. Sting? Let me think again how wrong that is.. – Sting!? Give me a frigging break – Sting? Currently living in the "Where are they now?" file – Sting. Is there any one more annoying man on the face of the Earth? I’m not sure which would be worse, to be stuck in an elevator with Sting, or France. Yuck!



So they roll this geriatric out and he starts piddling out some tripe of a song that I’m sure was written before Gwen or Shania were even born. The track was originally laid on vinyl for cripes sake. Vinyl! Does anyone even use vinyl for anything anymore - aside from covering the booths in the local diner? Do they even make vinyl albums anymore?

What we need to do is an intervention. Someone needs to step up and help Sting get over himself. I call upon his friends and his family, (Mr. and Mrs. Sting I’m talking to you now). I call upon his siblings, Burn, Itch, Tingle and Throb – intervene; make him stop while you still can. Send him back to Australia, South Africa or wherever he is from and tell him to shut up.

And bring more hotties to the halftime show!
