Great Moments in Failure: The Superbowl
February 4th, 2009 § 1 Comment
So, the Superbowl had a slew of “Fail” moments, more than any one blog post could possibly handle. Let’s begin:
Number 1. The most obvious failure was Kurt Warner and the Arizona Cardinals losing the game. They had a lead right at the end of the game thanks to an amazing performance by Larry Fitzgerald, but somehow the pressure of actually being able to win the game was too much for the Cardinals. When the Steeler’s offense came on to the field, it looked as if the Cardinals forgot they were playing American Football and instead thought they were playing a sport they were completely unfamiliar with [like Tiddlywinks or something like that]. An epic reception by Santonio Holmes won the Steelers the game, and earned Holmes the MVP award.
Cardinals = Fail.
2. The half-time show, starring the decaying Bruce Springsteen. His show, though I didn’t catch all of it, was odd. I felt like Springsteen didn’t belong in the Halftime show. Watch this video now: Crotch Fail : This is why “Classic Rock” stars, should stay in their genre…
Bruce Springsteen’s Crotch = Fail.
3. Something not a lot of people saw on the Superbowl, was porn. Yep, naked, dirty porno. The only people to see this were people who have ComCast television service and who live in the Arizona area. Apparently, right after Larry Fitzgerald scored the potentially game winning touchdown for the Cardinals, roughly 45 seconds of porn was sent to these customers. Now, this is hilarious and I think that it’s a total ploy for ratings because something “outrageous” has to happen during every Superbowl, but I’m mad that this was only in Arizona. Do you know how funny it would’ve been if 45 seconds of that guy’s package was sent all over the United States? My God…he’d be even richer, possibly the most famous male pornstar since Ron Jeremy.
Arizona TV Stations = No Fail.
The Superbowl this year…sort of was a let down. It was only interesting in the last 5 minutes of the last quarter. I almost stopped watching, but good thing I didn’t.
