The Metal Pix – Super Bowl LX

Over 100 million people are about to watch, and not a one of them saw QB Sam Darnold starting in a Super Bowl when all this ballyhoo kicked off in September?

As for the game, there is no other moment on television that commands such focused attention. Considering that America is pretty much on the brink of civil war, an event that reaches so many people will hardly go to waste. 

This year’s real story is the formal introduction of…Bad Bunny.

The Super Bowl’s halftime show has historically been used as an opportunity to spotlight someone who promotes American values, so a bearded Puerto Rican rapper who wears a dress but doesn’t sing in English seems very befitting of the occasion. 

For those of you who think booking Bad Bunny for the halftime show is a little less-than-American – First, I understand that it can be confusing to encounter an American who can speak two different languages.

So he/she/whatever is…bad?  Is they/them a friendly bunny?  Not really.  Apparently, we’ve got a sassy bunny who snarked on SNL that anyone unhappy with him not singing in English should just…download an app to learn Spanish.

You might be aware of the current powder keg that is ICE, Minnesota, and illegal immigration so…the world’s reaction to whatever he/she/it does at the Super Bowl Halftime Show ought to be something. 

Personally, I don’t see what would’ve been wrong with having Bruce Springsteen inspire millions of Americans over 55 with the hope that they too might one day be able to drop to their knees and get up again??

Either way, can’t wait! 

Let’s do the Pix – We got one game to go!

The Super Bowl ~ Patriots VS Seahawks: With 2 of the cheapest seats going for $7000.00, and the popularity of the matchup, it seems that billionaires are going to have trouble parking their planes.

Blowout?  Not likely.  But a crappy team that inexplicably wins?  Possibly.  After all, the Patriots haven’t lost a game by more than one score this season.  Hell.  In weather that went from ideal to atrocious in the blink of an eye, Patriots QB Drake Maye, needed to only throw for 83 yards to win the AFC Championship 2 weeks ago.

So, what if New England wins?  And why is everyone in Foxborough holding their breath, waiting for Drake Maye to shock everyone when he kneels after the game, takes out his Super Bowl ring, and proposes to Head Coach Mike Vrabel?

As for the Seahawks and their chances of winning?  Listen.  All I’m saying is QB Sam Darnold is a man that can be gotten to.  And even though the fans at the Super Bowl may not be as loud as their fans in Seattle, if there’s one thing that rich ignorant assholes are good at, it’s being loud.  Besides, look for the Seahawks to set the tone early by delivering a series of pulverizing hits on Patriots’ QB, Drake Maye, during warmups.

Pick — Seahawks

As for the fans, remember the 3 golden rules of Super Bowl parties:

  • Do not wear a jersey featuring the name and number of an actual NFL player. Confused guests will wonder why a famous athlete is at the party, especially if that athlete is supposed to be playing in the Super Bowl.
  • Complain that Colin Kapernick is not playing.  You want to be on the right side of history.
  • Be sure to sob during every commercial promoting unity and inclusion.  They all will so, know where the Kleenex is.

Enjoy the game – it’s been a year!  Love you guys
