Hail M.I.A.

Hail Mary by Brady, middle finger by M.I.A.

Super Bowl 46 turned out to be an exciting game. I was rooting for the Giants, having grown up in New York and preferring Working Class Eli over Cosmopolitan Tom.

Woke up this morning to a furor over British rapper M.I.A. giving the finger to the halftime crowd as she sang “I don’t give a sh*t”.

The Super Bowl has long been a spectacle not for the game itself, but for the over-priced commercials and the over-long halftime extravaganza. I don’t pay much attention to the commercial breaks that seem to appear so quickly that we’re left scratching our heads wondering WTF happened. The halftime show is a joke, it may entertain the crowd at the stadium, but for us at home, it’s just a chance to dive into the kitchen for eats and drinks.

As I said, the game was exciting, the last 2 minutes were a nail biter. As for all the other hoopla surrounding the Super Bowl, I’ll quote a famous rapper; “I don’t give a sh*t!”.

All I wanna do is (BANG BANG BANG BANG!)
And (KKKAAAA CHING!)
And take your money
