I am enjoying the new reporting of metrics about how many people changed the channel during halftime.

How long have they been tracking that?

And do they have stats for how much the water pressure dropped when all the Super Bowl watchers took a bathroom break at the same time?

I have to confess that I missed Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction because I didn't care about Timberlake and Janet Jackson so I went to the bathroom.

Well Benny, Super Bowl ratings (like all games w/a halftime) always go down at halftime. I would think as a “journalist” you would be aware of this. For instance here are the minute-by-minute ratings when The Weekend played halftime. pic.twitter.com/8e9uKq6daH

Im also curious as to what specifically was anti-American by his performance?

It was filthy. Had it been in English, the network would be in big trouble as the language certainly violated FCC rules.

Please clarify.

Are you talking about "USA" American, or "the Americas" American... as in every country on the continent?

Maybe nothing specifically said, (don't speak Spanish so I wouldn't know), but the imagery I saw was much less pro USA, and much more pro latin American countries, all the while taking advantage of the 'God bless America' theme.

Not "anti-American" as is were, but for a Superbowl in the 250th anniversary of our country's founding, the USA definitely was NOT the focus of his presentation.

Note that the only "Latin America" part was the flag parade at the end.

Everything else in the performance was focused on Puerto Rico (and a brief bit of New York).

For the 250th Anniversary of the USA should we have had a much more Red, White and Blue, USA, USA, USA pep rally theme? Yes, we should have.

But... for whatever reason, the NFL turned everything over to Jay Z back in 2019. I have no idea how many more years that deal lasts.

Since 2019, Jay-Z and his entertainment company, Roc Nation, have served as the NFL's live music entertainment strategists, giving him ultimate control over selecting Super Bowl halftime performers. pic.twitter.com/U9VvMieKVD

BREAKING: House Republicans announce investigation into Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance, alleging the Spanish lyrics were “inappropriate” for television.

— Polymarket (@Polymarket) February 13, 2026

This seems very on par for our government.

***** incessantly that you cannot understand the halftime show.

Launch an "investigation" about inappropriate lyrics, even though you could not understand them.

Awesome use of government resources!

Is the F word in French, German, Italian, Greek or Russian any less offensive than it is in English?
Is twerking on national TV any lees offensive if it's done by any of the aforementioned instead of a citizen of the US of A? How about crotch grabbing?

Thank God Big Brother is on the case...love me some small government!

If someone says the f-word to me and it is in a language that I do not understand and I have no idea what they said, yes, it is absolutely less offensive to me. Are you serious?

So you think it's all right for anybody to say the F word in public as long as it's in a language you don't understand. So if I said to you " Je vais tuer ton chat, ton chien et brler ta maison!" in your opinion, there wouldn't be anything wrong with me saying it.
So your question back at you. Are you serious?

Have they wrapped the "Bud Light Hired Someone To Market Their Product That We Don't Like" investigation? I think Ted Cruz was behind that one.

The halftime show could've just been a random American shouting the f-bomb in perfect English 400 times, and I still wouldn't want the government to investigate it. Imagine caring about this.

So far ahead of the elections, at best, this is a feel good thing for the portion of maga who didn't like it. But, our government has wasted more money on things (terror, drugs, etc.) and gotten nothing accomplished by it, so by comparison, this is a drop in the bucket.

I did not say it was fine.

An f-bomb that is understood by 100% of the audience is definitely more offensive than an f-bomb that is heard by less than a quarter of an audience.

Either way, I think it is dumb for House republicans to devote any time, money, or thought on the freaking halftime show of a sporting event.

Who is still offended by the f word?

I'm someone who uses the word frequently and I still believe it shouldn't be thrown out there in one of America's most televised moments.

But, I also don't think there should be a government investigation. At the NFL level though, sure.

I must say, that if there is to be an official language of decolonization in the Americas, it should *cough* Spanish.

The only thing that comes to mind is that it is likely the same people, or those like them, who fought to get parental advisory labels on music albums back in the 80s.

So if I and my family are Hispanic and understood what was being said and were offended by it because our children were hearing and understanding it also we are wrong to want the law enforced? If there is a law on the books against the broadcasting of such said law should be applicable or else the law should be done away with. Some of you on here probably think that speeding laws shouldn't be enforced nor apply to you as you happily drive 80 in a 65 zone. Some of you think you're part of the solution when in truth you're part of the problem.
