NFL game I have watched this season because of all the wokenness. And I will say it was kind of

astonishing how missing in action the wokenness was at the Super Bowl, which makes sense because the NFL is not stupid enough to try and cram that down the throats of 100 million Americans during their biggest broadcast of the year and the biggest event in American entertainment. And so it was the usual stuff. It was patriotism and unity and togetherness and all of the rest. That's not to say that it didn't have its bizarre moments like the halftime show. But it was not a good game, but Tom Brady demonstrates once again that he is the greatest quarterback of all time at 10 Super Bowls. He has seven and three in those Super Bowls. And you just have to admire the quality. And you really do. And you have to admire the quality, by the way, of Tampa Bay's defensive scheme. And they really stymied Patrick Mahomes. But that's enough sports talk. We'll get to the cultural side of this. I will say that the halftime show was super weird. I know that it's not aimed at me. I know that when people think of, like, chief demographic for the weekend, they don't think of me because I listen to classical music and read straight

the lyrics of Cardi B. But with that said, I thought that even for a weird halftime show,

this one was super duper weird. I think my favorite part, there were a couple parts that are pretty

great. One was when he was the weekend, which I assume was his given name. Like he was born,

his mother looked at him and called him the weekend. But in any case, I assume that his given name. Like he was born, his mother looked at him and called him The Weekend.

But in any case, I assume that he was stumbling through the mirrored halls with a camera up in his face.

So that was like me after a second COVID shot right there.

And then I don't know if this was meant to be like Joe Biden's COVID troops

masks coming for you if you don't wear a mask or what this was supposed to be.
