The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER! It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence. Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching from throughout the U.S.A., and all over the World. This “Show” is just a “slap in the face” to our Country, which is setting new standards and records every single day — including the Best Stock Market and 401(k)s in History! There is nothing inspirational about this mess of a Halftime Show and watch, it will get great reviews from the Fake News Media, because they haven’t got a clue of what is going on in the REAL WORLD — And, by the way, the NFL should immediately replace its ridiculous new Kickoff Rule. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP

What a little biotch.

I watched 2 minutes, remembered the Olympics were on and then switched over to that for the entirety of halftime. I kept intact my streak of never giving a damn about any halftime show going back to the first Super Bowl I ever watched.

I watched Bad Bunny. I’m not sure why liberals care that they had a different show. You obviously wanted to force feed the country a certain narrative with the halftime selection and it’s almost like they are mad that people rejected it and wanted to watch something else. 

You get a liberal artist that works for a liberal label run by a liberal in a liberal city in a liberal state.
 

Nobody dislikes America, more than white liberals. Nobody. 

[Hawkeye21]

My wife and I watched the whole halftime show.  Neither of us cared for it.  It wasn't the worst halftime show ever but it was not anywhere close to as good as the liberals are talking it up to be.  The first song played was absolute trash and sounded terrible.  The next song was pretty good and I enjoyed.  I didn't really get why Lady Gaga was their singing a Bruno Mars song but that was the best part because it was a song I recognized and it's pretty good.

The visuals and choreography were good.  A lot of it falls flat though because without knowing the lyrics, I don't know what anything is suppose to mean.  The whole thing was just really odd for the Super Bowl.

All I want is a show that has great music.  I don't need a big, Broadway musical performance or political protest.

[Mike Hunt]

The NFL already has the USA audience locked up.   Now they want to take the world wide soccer crowd.  Bad Bunny is a performer that reached that crowd.

Even though most people watching in the states could not understand a word he sang it was entertaining to watch. Like a cartoon with real people.

The pre-show predictions were that the show would be a bunch of queers and drag queens running around.  Did not see much of that.

My mother in law is Hispanic and speaks fluent Spanish so she understood, but all she kept saying why does he keep grabbing his balls?  LOL

I wish it was. That would’ve been even more ridiculous to celebrate a kid whose mom didn’t want him and the dad abandoned him while running from cops because he’s a criminal. I’m sure that little message would’ve rang across the country as being rational.

Here's what I know about the halftime shows... while people wasted 20 minutes of their lives watching crap, I was able to get my taxes done.

This makes sense as the real reason Bad Bunny was chosen.  Not idiots like @cyclone24 that think it was about politics

Yes, I’m sure getting those eyeballs in Puerto Rico is a massive massive NFL draw. 
Not one person never watched the NFL and then said oh Bad Bunny is on speaking Spanish now I’m an NFL fan! Lol give me a freaking break

Jay-Z owns roc nation. Less than 10 years ago, they entered in agreement with the NFL to do its halftime music. Jay-Z is a huge liberal, his label is a huge liberal label.
Guess who operates under his label?

 

Bad Bunny.

You guys don’t do anything organically. This is no different.

All the wives at the SuperBowl party I went to basically said the same... "that wasn't good".  Didn't say it was awful, just clearly didn't live up to their expectations. 

I watched the redneck halftime show with the men on the outside tv. It was ok. It was nice to watch a calm normal performance rather than whatever the Superbowl does. And it wasn't political... just songs.

Not everything is about politics.  But you are free to believe your own conspiracies if you’d like.   ‘Merica

Ha yes if it’s pro liberal it’s organic. And if you don’t agree, then it’s conspiracy theory despite tons of contributing factors that make it not but OK. 
I’m sure it was all a coincidence.

NFL cares more about making money than making political stands.  Occam’s razor says they chose Bad Bunny because they thought he would bring in non-traditional fans.

I’m gonna give you a chance to think about that one for a second if you don’t think the NFL, especially at halftime performances doesnt allow political nonsense.

There’s actually quite a history of it.

He's the number one streamed artist on spotify.  They were trying to broaden their appeal.

What?!! Noooooo….. you mean it’s not all a coincidence and organic? You might want to let Tim know.

[Hawkeye21]

What I find interesting is that even Spanish speaking people found the performance to be poor.  Apparently Bad Bunny has an odd accent and slang with his singing that was hard to understand.

Yup.  20 minutes well spent.  It's pretty easy.  See, what happens in America today, you get pdf's and those pdf's can be uploaded and imported to make things easier and faster.  You may want to look into that.

I didn’t say they “don’t allow political nonsense,” I said they care more about money and I’m confident the decision to choose Bad Bunny was more about that than politics.

Also if you’re hinting at the kneeling for the anthem stuff, keep in mind they later made a rule which required players to stand for the anthem or else stay in the locker room.

And with the track record of the current admin Goodell has to know that if they do something too political that Bill Pulte is going to be digging through his mortgage records looking for any mistakes.

It felt like the NFL was courting controversy for ratings. Seems like it worked. I can’t remember any halftime show getting so much attention since Nipplegate.

Yeah, I think you’re being willfully ignorant on the facts of how he got picked.  I’m not quite sure why mentally it’s hard to just say it was more political than you want to lead on so you win some sort of social points that you think the country or casual fans wanted to see that? I don’t know, but it’s pretty dang obvious.

Aren’t you the guy that thinks Nick Shirley had nothing to do with why DHS was in Minneapolis?

[jerryskids]

Watched it with my daughter, son, and his GF, all in their late 20s.  They were interested in watching it, so the show appealed to that generation.  They enjoyed it enough, but they knew the songs and I didn't. 

I didn't think there was anything special about the performance, although the twerking dancers had a primal sex appeal.  Mostly I was wondering why the entire thing was in a corn field like a horror flick -- I eventually figured out it was a cane field, so we were seeing hispanic worker environments.  But, could the people in the stadium actually see anything?  Hey look, more half-naked dancers shaking their butts, always a hit.

Well, it’s easy. You just throw a microphone in front of a liberal and they’ll tell you how bad America is. You had Green Day doing it, Bad Bunny, alluding to it, you have liberal athletes, running their mouth on stands like they speak for the whole country.
And the reporters know it too. They tried it on a couple athletes and the conservative ones said I’m an athlete here to compete. But the liberal ones? My God they’ll get into it.

I don’t recall posting a lot about Shirley other than a couple times maybe just talking about the fraud he found? I don’t think I tied it to DHS no

What did Green Day say about how had America is during the Super Bowl?

Actually you don't even need to import pdfs.  Most payroll companies allow for direct import, as well as many of the major financial institutions for 1099s.  I guess if you don't have much in the way of income and don't itemize, it could be that quick, it is when I do my kids.

Still though odd choice to do this during halftime of the super bowl.

 At a Spotify and FanDuel pre-Super Bowl party in San Francisco, Armstrong directly addressed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, urging them to “quit your shitty-ass job”. Other comments about Trump and the administration.

So nothing during the Super Bowl, thanks for confirming 

[Hawkeye21]

Here's the halftime show with translation.  It would've been much better if they did that for the live show.  I'm not sure how they get away with the profanity just because it's in Spanish though.
