I figured I needed to know him better, so I thought maybe others would like to as well.

Most of the BB posts did not do well. These two did the best:

I posted my summary of BB on DU.
Please add to it there.

The fact that a SB halftime show is a topic of politics is just a sign of the chaos of our times.

Are you ready for some football!!! ☮

I will not watch this one, however I am recording it to give nielsen ratings my little bump. It is important this be the most watched Super Bowl in HISTORY

Do you have a box attached to your set or do you have to fill out a diary?

I assume that Verizon sells viewer stats. No proof. could be wrong.

Set top viewer data. There is too much room for abuse. There are several laws again it. Nielsen does its own independent research. They either they ask a household to keep a diary of their viewing or they attach a device to your set.

I assume Verizon will sell their mother for the right price. I say this as a substantial shareholder from 43 years of management employee stock purchases.

Which is why there are laws against it.

I asked about their selling and got this result

Yes, Verizon provides viewer statistics and insights related to cable TV audiences, which can help in understanding viewing habits and preferences. This data is often used for advertising and marketing purposes.

I am not a sport's fan, so I will not watch any of it. If you gave me a million dollars to name one team who is playing, I would have to Google it.

Send the million bucks to my cash app. 😉

It's not my kind of music, but I'll be watching tge game so no reason not to watch the halftime show.
I saw Flo-Rida on MTV Live and enjoyed it more than I expected. Maybe this will be the same.

Haven’t watched a minute of anything Super Bowl related in decades.

Bad Bunny isn't exactly my choice of entertainment.

I'm Old School. The music died with the plane crash.

To see if ICE crashes it and arrests him.

Don't let them tell you otherwise.

Handsome, great sense of humor, good music, generous, nice (I sense), spiritual, great hats. I might put down my Manhattan and dance along with him. I’m 79 so I won’t be too old till next year!

Here's some more cumbia

But will tune in for the half time show. I have to maintain my woke credentials. 😬

But I've got my tv's on!!!!

I will watch Bad Bunny when he comes on so that I can see for myself what he is, etc. But like Taylor Swift, I could care less about their music and more about the fact that they incense MAGA's.

(Yes, I'm old.)
