I come in from milking at half-time and lil Griff breaks out her Comic Book Guy voice, "Worst Super Bowl halftime show ever."

Is there something seriously wrong with the field down in Dallas?

Thing about the Black Eyed Peas is that they don't rely on their vocals for the show, so they can give a standard show even in an akward half time environment. Their music sounded the same as the studio version and the show was visually stunning. I mostly enjoyed it. Better than most half time shows. Better than the Who last year.

Thank you, monster. Just right!

Now that everybody in America has color TV, do we really still need Home and Away jerseys?

I hate hate hate the home and away thing. N'existe pas en UK. And white is the worst color to launder.

I don't know if this is just hockey in the US, or all sports?

In the UK, soccer/football teams wear their own color/colour. If, and only if two teams meet who have the same color, then they away team uses their second "away" kit.

for non-US viewers who may not know, here, The home team wear white or light, and the away team wears a dark color. So, in the pic, Thor is in the home jersey, his away Jersey is red. Hector has White and Blue.

Ok. sorta cleared up...it varies and even within sports and leagues...

from Wikisourceofallknowledge:

Quote:
For home and away jerseys, teams often use white (or another light color such as yellow) as the main color for one jersey and the team's primary color as the main color for the other jersey. "White home" is the convention in baseball (MLB), basketball (NBA, NCAA basketball) and college hockey, while "white away" is the convention in football (NFL, NCAA football) and NHL. However, the conventions are not rules, and often the home team has the right to choose which jersey it will wear, with the visiting team forced to choose a contrasting color. For this reason, teams often create a third jersey, usually with a secondary team color, to ensure that they will always have an appropriate selection for the game. The term "third" or "alternate" typically refers to this specially designed jersey. Throwback jerseys can be considered additional alternate jerseys, but they are generally only used for special team games and not for the "third" purpose.

I thought I saw Terry Bradshaw behind the desk, was he only doing color commentary or halftime?
