The most hilarious and typical hypocritical thing about this whole thing is it exposes the right. They've spent the last years talking about how things should be merit based and that race/culture shouldn't matter. Bad Bunny got this on merit despite the NFL knowing they'd get flamed by the hypocritical right.

Bad Bunny got the gig because:

1) He's a popular entertainer, worldwide, but most importantly...in America. Their bread and butter.
2) His popularity is cross-ethnic, making it onto radio rotations all over, not just on Spanish-speaking stations
3) The NFL, stupidly, thinks having him on will help in the international market where "football" means something different and they don't give a flying **** about "American football".

So, merit (1 & 2) over feels (3).

Yep

I bet him not being overtly lefty in his performance (no mention of ICE, or Trump, or whatever) will get him in trouble from the Left. Which, to him, is no problema. Hees got mo-knee, mang.

Literally the opposite of merit.

He is? I didnt know wtf he even was until everyone started *****ing.


Same. And if you're close to AARP or older it makes all the sense in the world.

I asked my nephews and nieces (all under 25) if they knew who he was. The eye rolls and laughs confirmed just how out of touch to their generation I was.

Which makes sense seeing as how early numbers show Bad Bunny having the most viewers ever in Super Bowl history.

If the numbers hold the NFL's bet on him will have paid off.
There are in fact two things, science and opinion; the former begets knowledge, the later ignorance. Hippocrates

I could not understand a word he said, nor could the Spanish speaking people I was watching with!

The general consensus seemed to be "that appeared to be an interesting production, I just wish I knew what the hell it was all about"

Unfortunately, they didn't have Metallica or Journey play their hometown.

I would even like to have seen Cake for a Super Bowl in San Francisco.

Maybe bring Grace Slick out of retirement for a final Jefferson Airplane show.

The young adults in our family know who he is but don't listen to him. Most don't speak Spanish and the ones who do say they still don't understand him. Most didn't even watch the Super Bowl.

I watched both. The NFL halftime show wasn't bad, I speak Spanish and didn't understand a ton. I liked when the musicians came out and it shifted to more classic Latin style music. TPUSA was solid too. If the NFL was smart, they would have a done a country and rock opener instead of washed Green Day.

Machine head is from the Bay Area… would have been a good selection too…

But then again, I'm sure the aging metal head isn't their target demographic.

So the early numbers at 10+ million streamers and 25 million "views". Above TPUSAs predictions and enough to announce a return next year.

And evidently the NFL put in some restrictions and pressure on where it could be shown live.

Big success and encouraging for those who love God, Country, Family and Feeedom.

The half time show is like everything else about this Super Bowl: entirely forgettable despite its attempt to be edgy

The only thing exposed is that you are:

1. unable to think logically
or
2. dishonest and a troll


The idea that popularity trumps worldview is ignorant.

Demanding merit based placement in the workforce and selling lots of records is apples to oranges.

Respecting and including other cultures does not require you to condemn your own.

This is not a difficult thought exercise. I'd bet money you fall under #2.

As dumb as it is I looked for this post on X and it doesn't exist. Do you have a link or is this just a fake?

You didn't look very hard. It won't show it on Texags, but click on this tweet.

The average person doesn't know why the halftime show for SB goes and gets the biggest artist now. It was actually because "In Living Color" stole the majority their Audience in '92. They didnt want a repeat. Prompting them to get Michael Jackson.

Didn't watch a second of the show. I switched over to the Olympics and then switched back to the game when it was back on. Not sure what was worse the game or the commercials.

So I'm behind, but that halftime was really blah.

I guess I'm glad he didn't wear a dress, but it was just not culturally relevant at all. And if the NFL thinks this is now their target demo, I'll just further distance myself from pro ball.

Does NFL think they can profit with a predominantly Spanish speaking audience? That's lots of eyes but no spending power, right?

I guess I'll stick to being grumpy about college ball and ignore the pros.



NFL just isn't relevant to me anymore. I don't think I watch one quarter of a game leading up to the Super Bowl this season. Quite frankly I kinda quit giving a flip about the NFL back when I went to college in the 1980s, and the Aggies were much more entertaining.

I did find it weird that they picked a Super Bowl in San Francisco to roll out the Puerto Rican-centric halftime show. I would have expected that in Miami.

Pretty sad when watching curling on the Olympics and reruns of Kenny Rogers "Gambler" movies is more exciting than the Superbowl and it's halftime farce

So the way to attract Spanish speaking viewers is to hire some Puto.
