Reply to comment by spanctimony in James Bradberry: "I pulled on his jersey. They called it. I was hoping they would let it ride." by EatSleepJeep

OP was talking about the last penalty, and Greg Olson’s calling of it.

Your point of bringing up the halftime show was showing evidence of how “Wild” the Super Bowl is. What about the halftime show made last night wild?

You must not be a native speaker of English, so I’ll be kind.

My use of the word “wild” is analogous (similar) to “crazy” or “notable” or “interesting”.

I was saying “it’s interesting and slightly crazy that…”, sub that in for “wild” and see if that makes any more sense.

“It’s interesting and slightly crazy that we had one of if not the best actual games in the Super Bowl, but we had possibly the worst halftime show and commentator performance in history.”

The pronoun “it” does not refer to the Super Bowl.

Please, tell me. What makes it the worst halftime show in history?

Really?

You mean aside from the pop artist who doesn’t write her own songs, who didn’t even bother holding the microphone to her face at times, who showed up incapable of doing any sort of dance performance, who didn’t bring out any other artists (as is customary) to amp things up, who hasn’t had a hit in 7 years, who turned the NFL down “for moral reasons” a few years ago but now has an album to promote? Rihanna isn’t a timeless artist. She’s a pop star who isn’t relevant anymore, and didn’t bring what was needed to relaunch her career. She took the job knowing she was pregnant, and then phoned in this half assed effort?

The only decent thing about the half time show was the suspended platforms.

Contrast this against last year which was arguably one of the best half time performances in history, or compare it against The Weekend from two years ago (who I can’t stand as an artist but he brought his A+ game for the Super Bowl).

Name some worse half time performances, I dare you.

Bro, it’s all subjective. Your allowed to have your opinion. I just wanted to hear it.

But 1995 though?
