Didn't get to see the Lingierie Bowl, but I did have some thoughts on the Super Bowl halftime show:
Did Jim Nantz get pelted with something while he was talking? It looked like he got hit, then was motioning at fans or something. Didn't rattle his speaking though.
What happened at the end of the show itself? Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson were dancing, then it looked like he pulled down her top. No way it happened, but they cut away really quickly.
EDIT: Looks like Guru Zim found the answer already. It did really happen.
And then of course, there was the streaker. It really looked like one of the refs was carrying a referees' uniform to the sideline after it happened. What a clever way to sneak onto the field. It had to be hard to keep track when there was so many people on the sidelines. Can anyone confirm that that's what happened?

Who cares about the lingerie bowl, CBS delivered Janet Jackson's tit on live TV! I'm still trying to pick up my jaw from the floor.

This was another in a long line of bad Halftime shows tit or no tit.
The marching band playing Outkast at the begining was kinda nifty though.
I didn't realize that Janet was still relevent enough to headline something like this, but I guess she will be the talk of the town much like the kiss heard round the world.
My question is that with all that *tight* security how did some Brit get through in a referee outfit and get on the field. This guy was just a goof but it goes to show that sporting events are still a weak link no matter how tight the security claims to be.

The guy I was sitting next to noted that since Michael is back in the news it's time for Janet to try to relaunch her career.
Yes, it did look like a ball of something or other bounced off of the desk right in front of Nantz.....then they cut away, then cut back to him making a "that way, that way" gesture up at the stands
I'm now questioning my own sexuality, considering I watched the halftime show and somehow MISSED the full tit exposure! What the hell was I looking at?
Everything that is wrong in this world can be blamed on Freddie Prinze Jr.
Originally posted by calvinh0560I just want to know why the didn't get Outkast to play at half time. Let them play Hey-Ya and everyone in the world is happy.
Well...except for people who don't particularily like Outkast.
Of all the Super Bowls to pick to draw the short straw and make the McD's run at halftime. And then, ironically, it's Mr. "I'm Lovin' It" himself who does mankind a service.
Sure puts that song "All For You" in a different light, eh?
Wait…if it’s MLK Jr. Day AND Pat Patterson’s Birthday…who gets the token win here?-- Matt "Excalibur05" Hocking on a match between Mark Henry and Rico
MH: What’s a clever way to say that I have a penis? CJ: Uh…Mark, nobody’s going to buy that shirt. MH: How about if I say that I’ve got…a…uh…? CJ: Coming up with T-Shirt ideas is hard Mark, why not leave it to the WWE marketing department. MH: I know! I’ve got it! CJ: Got what? MH: Stank! That’s Mah Stank! I’m gonna make a fortune!! CJ: “That’s Mah Stank”? MH: On the front it’ll say “Can You Smell It?” and on the back it’ll say “That’s Mah Stank”. Everybody’ll buy it because they’ll think it’s a Rock shirt. CJ: You know…you might be on to something there, sad to say. MH: I can’t wait to show mah stank to Trish.
You know, I have a feeling that Spanky didn’t quit, he was fired. Why? So they could repackage Mark Henry as “Stanky.” Think about THAT! --Matt "Excalibur05" Hocking, 1/19/04 Raw Satire

If you don't like that song, you have no soul. And I don't mean, like you have no soul like BB King talks about in 'Amazon women on the moon", I mean you have no soul like you're evil.

he's no goof, he's a professional (msn.espn.go.com)! :-P

Well, I guess I'm evil then. I can't speak for the no soul part, because I haven't looked, yet. Honestly, it's not my bag. I've liked one or two of their songs, but past that, they do nothing for me.
I know I'm supposed to think they're cool or revolutionary or whatever, but I just don't particularily like them. I don't hate them mind you, but I wouldn't buy an album or anything, and I certainly wouldn't be all that interested in a halftime show featuring only them.
Was it just me, or with the exception of Timberlake's appearance at the end wouldn't this halftime show have been better about three years ago when the majority of the songs were recent? This looked like a proposal MTV had made years ago as an attempt to get the gig, and since they couldn't come up with anything this year they just recycled it.
The tit happened so quick it was confusing. I'll be happy if it leads to an end of MTV producing the Halftime Show.
Can't SpikeTV allow for Halftime Heat?
Time to go kick more light side ass, KotOR style!

Incidentally, I hate Super Bowl halftime shows. We have a bunch of acts that have nothing to do with each other playing 90 seconds of two songs...
It's hard to see why anyone would vote for Wesley Clark after his dismal showing. If you want a war hero, there's Kerry. If you want a Southerner, there's Edwards. If you want a crackpot, there's Dean (though we'll grant that Clark is more of a crackpot). - James Taranto, WSJ
