Sorry, this Super Bowl is underwear-only

Posted on January 16th, 2007 – 1:51 PM
By Michael Rand

Britney Spears will not be part of the halftime festivities at this year’s Super Bowl, thanks in part to the fact that computer literate teenage boys across the world have seen the place her babies came from. (NY Daily News, via The Big Lead). But hey, Tom Brady should have no worries if he makes it to the big game again. Apparently, he’s a hit with supermodel Gisele Bundchen (though we’re still not sure what threshold one has to cross to go from “model” to “supermodel.”) And if this youtube clip can be trusted, Tom wears underpants. (This clip contains material that might be considered “PG-13″ in a movie setting. Use your own discretion).

RandBall needs to start the http://www.wewishweweretombrady.com webpage. Just saying. Hey its got to be better than enzy.com, which is taken, and I’m pretty sure is a colon health products page. Hey, I even linked it for you under my name. Give it a shot if you like enemas.

Oh yeah, wish I had non public so i could see this, apparantly gross, Britney display once. I mean I’ve seen Paris Hilton. May as well.

Enzy, if we are to use your product, do you promise we will soon be able to balance on those inflatable balls like the people in the picture?

I was going to root against the Patriots (I can’t say I’ll be rooting for the Colts) but then I realized that if Manning makes it to the SB, we’ll get a heavy dose of Kenny Chesney.

Rocket says:

Let me get this straight. We are afraid that Britney might sully the largest spectacle of one of the most homoerotic sports ever conceived because she has a charming penchant for showing off her hoo-ha in public? Seriously, football needs to take a meaningful look at itself before it passes judgment. Football regulates large men regularly slamming into each other, requires large amount of touching, and unabashedly accepts males patting each other on the bottom. For Pete’s sake, there’s even a “tight end” position. And, to top it all off, the broadcasts of the games will occasionally give us shots of the cheerleaders on the sidelines to remind us that we are supposed to be straight.

This rant is not to pass judgment on anybody’s orientation. If it feels good, and your partner is consenting, then by all means get it on. But let us ask why the NFL is rejecting a woman merely because she has reminded us of the female chamber that can not only bring us so much pleasure, but is also our gateway to this life. The hoo-ha, without a doubt, is a beautiful thing. The whole situation only becomes more confused when one remembers that Prince, he of the definitively gettin’-it-on lyrics, is the halftime highlighter.

There is only one conclusion that can be made: The NFL is trying to make us more gay.

Rocket: Terrell Owens can’t believe you wrote that whole rant without including the words “Jeff” or “Garcia.”

Stu says:

January 16th, 2007 at 3:07 pm

Let us note that Tom Brady, once upon a time, dated Tara Reid, so he’s not infallible. I wouldn’t touch her with Lavelle E. Neal’s Third (I don’t know what that means).

It brings up a question, though: how does Brady’s metaphorical receiving corps match up to his literal receiving corps? Here’s what I’ve got:

Reid=Doug Gabriel (maybe worth something five years ago, if that)

Bridget Moynahan=Deion Branch (the Pro Bowler that got away)

Bundchen=Jabar Gaffney (hot newcomer making an impressive run in the playoffs)

Jessica Simpson=Reche Caldwell (spooky eyes)

That’s all I’ve got. If someone can find a match for Troy Brown, the scrappy little veteran who gets the job done both ways, well, you had better provide a link with pictures.

Wow…Rocket, I think that post alone garners you my vote for COW. Heck, it would almost get my immediate vote for COY, if you hadn’t left off the obvious point that, while Prince is definitely he of the gettin’-it-on lyrics, he is also not exactly the most macho-football-manly rock star out there–further bringing the NFL’s motives into question.

Maybe you figured that was obvious, but after reading some of the rants today, I think it probably needs to be spelled out for a number of RandBall’s followers.

And Stu, I was going to make a parallel to Brady’s career and his dating choices–but I like yours better.

Although I’m not sure I want to see pictures of the Troy Brown match…

(oh yeah, I think the article Rand linked to about this topic–which by the way, mentioned that Brady had a man servant type person in Will McDonaugh–no relation to the dead reporter, obviously).

(And another oh yeah–I really do think that the fact that we’ve discussed Yao Ming’s supposed relationship, and now Tom Brady’s, really odd for a sports blog…is Rand sitting too close to CJ again?)

Stu says:

January 16th, 2007 at 3:57 pm

I’m actually kinda psyched about Prince being the halftime entertainment. I well remember the Britney/Aerosmith/NSYNC halftime show, and trying to jam a knitting needle clear through my head.

Prince, of course, is better than bacon-wrapped bacon, no matter how goofy he is.

Rocket says:

January 16th, 2007 at 4:13 pm

I agree, Stu. I also am looking forward to Prince as the halftime show. Why, if Prince were wrapped in bacon I could just eat him up.

……………………….

Oh dear lord, the NFL’s plan is working………………..

The Real Enzy says:

January 16th, 2007 at 4:16 pm

In the enzy.com terms of service, it clearly notes that its products do not claim, nor intend to claim, that ball balancing or any other kind of benefit involving balls is inherently related to the use of their products. My legal man Jerry Stonutterson hooked me up with that one.

Toonces51 says:

January 16th, 2007 at 4:20 pm

I too am looking forward to the half time show this year–it will be an even better time to go use the crapper than it has been in years past.

Gotta free up some room for some more nachos & wings…

Toonces51 says:

January 16th, 2007 at 4:23 pm

Does anyone else find it odd that the NFL is banning Britney for flashing her hoo-ha, but is more than happy to work with Paris Hilton, who pretty much originated the paprazzi hoo-ha flash? And the career boosting porn tape?

RandBall says:

January 16th, 2007 at 4:27 pm

You guys are cracking me up, especially Rocket and Stu, but what more would anyone expect from past COWs? Toonces, very good point about Paris Hilton. There’s a phrase for her and her type that can’t be repeated in a family blog. Not even in the comments section. But it fits. Oh, does it ever fit.

Paul Paulos says:

Someone really messed up producing one of the Prince promos. The one in question shows a mess of footballers (the American kind ) coming down an entrance tunnel to the field. Dressed in pads etc. they, of course, are HUGE. Then there is a guy following (disputable gender really) carrying a guitar coming down the same tunnel.

Soon we figure out that it’s Prince !!!, but the juxtaposition of the Huge with the Little made Prince !!! look even smaller which was some trick indeed. He always has great dancers, however, so who knows. The 45 minute halftime nonsense might be worth it.

Ummm … RandBall? Did you mean to link to this Tom-Brady-in-his-underwear video?

Since the half times are so long and filled with unknown (to me) performers with self inflicted/invented names (Is any musician besides the players named Tom or Bill any more )…but since they are out there why not add some spice to the game. Dress up/gear up in full pads the cheerleaders from both sides and let them have a 1/2 hour tag football game (then you don’t need pads and the visuals would be far more interesting. The cheerleaders might even like it. 15 year old would like it. Geriatrics would like it, so let ‘em play.

Who needs the dimunitive reclusive Prince. Let him play with the girls, give him position of Left Out…a little clown on the sideline holding a big guitar..Is that compensation of some sort…but i digress..let the halftime be a cheerleader game. I’d watch…per sure I would
