I just bet 5 dollars on BoDog on Christina Aguleria (how the hell do you spell that? ha) taking OVER 1:54 to sing the national anthem. I like my chances, performers always draw out the national anthem way too long.

Was there a prop bet on her ability to get the lyrics right? Because she lost that one.

agree...could've been a bit better. I think she messed up on some breathing in between.

It's almost like she should have rehearsed a few times for something like the Super Bowl. You know, little things like the right lyrics and when to breathe and whatnot.

Great win for the Packers. Once again offense sells tickets, defense wins championships.

Ya, that was a good game. Steelers didn't look like they want to win the first half, then sort of came back second half. The game was pretty awesome, but the halftime show was pretty average. I expected a bit more...

I wish. I was the only person who noticed that of the people I watched the game with. haha other people were INSISTENT that she didn't mess up the lyrics. And she took under 1:54, goodbye 5 dollars. I was pissed.

see I was loving the halftime show. I'm not a pop music fan (I didn't even know Fergie was in the black eyed peas until last night haha) but I really enjoyed the show. It was fun, and I love Usher (serious, no homo)

overall, it was definitely another memorable superbowl. I also loved the commercials; I thought the kid in Darth Vader's suit was a freaking awesome commercial. I'm already looking forward to Superbowl XLVI!!

Nothing can compare with the Budweiser commercials of the early 2000s. InBev destroyed the Bud Light ads; none of them are funny at all anymore.

Superbowl halftime performance was probably the worst live production I've ever seen. The sound mixing was awkwardly bad.

No, it will all be forgotten by next week. Although I'm not personally a fan, most people have moved on to basketball season now :)

Again, agree with you, av. In fact, the very first thing that I said to my girlfriend after watching that very last incomplete 4th and 5 pass that secured the season for the packers was, "It's time for NBA!!"
