To get your attention away from lousy singing, bad lyrics and music. 99.5% of the music out there is crap. The only well to sell it is to take off the clothes and give a show. You ask any "good" true musician or singer and they will tell you it's not what you wear that makes the song, it's how you sing and play it. The music died a long time ago but people don't want to believe that. What happened, the baring of the breast wasn't the problem, at what event it happened is. If the NFL has to stoop that low rather than showcase itself....maybe they'd have been better off showing a clip of past Superbowls or something. I don't care because I don't have cable or outside antenna so I don't watch any TV. However, broadcast TV is just that, they have regulations, cable does not. It is the last bastion of boob free TV and really with cable it should be. At least parents should be able to say without any doubt that they can leave their children watching broadcast TV in living booblessness. Has nothing to do with morals really. A boob is a boob, just the wrong network, should have been on cable. Anyone know why all the so-called singers especially ones that can't sing are mostly naked during their videos?

I don't care about Michael's lookalike (ok, they used to look alike) sister flashing a chocolate blob of flesh. It wasn't a wardrobe malfunction, an error in judgement, or an accident. It had to be deliberate and planned. How many women wear the tassle/teet appliance like she did, underneath a bra? How many women wear a bra where someone with the noodle-boy strength of J.T., is able to pull off the velcro attached, break-away fabric panel with one hand? Janet is an actress, in addition to a songstress. She was soooooo surprised. I'd normally agree with Chris, except here. There is too much skin, too much profanity and too much crap on national television. it's all about using sexual situations and "permissible" foul language to lure kids and mindless young adults into thinking the giant corporations are united with them. They want to be the anti-parent. What is overlooked by the glossy-eyed kids caught in the bright spotlights, is a sleek, provocative ad/entertainment trying to empty the pockets and morality of the generation it pretends to befriend. Free television doesn't need skin shows, planned or accidental. There are abundant cable channels to watch porn, why does it need to be on a G rated show supposedly all right for young children to watch? It's one day closer to the fxxx word being as common everywhere as axx is now. Kids grow up way too fast, and I think television is a big part of it. Keep the G rated shows G. I'm all for coed showers, as long as we don't invite the children in with us. Mad Dog Mike Powell, sic 'em. I don't care about the Uberbowl.

Kinda set the tone for the new "SuperBowel 1" next year. I think it fit right in with the horse farts,

Actually it was nice to see Tito Jackson again. Everyone knows she has a new CD coming out and this was the ultitmate PR stunt to draw attention to an out dated singer that hasn't had a hit like forever. I still think it was really Michael with a little dark make up. If the media will let it go, she will fade back into obscurity from whence she came.

I hate it when someone spouts off racial slurs in public or on television. I am not saying I don't respect their right to those beliefs. They can put up a website, write books, publish magazines, heck they can even gather in their own little gathering space and spout off all their racial convictions. It is not forced onto me in any way. That's the same thing with this topic. It's not offensive to many of you but it is to many others. They have the right to be offended and not want it forced onto them or their children on broadcast television. It's a simple matter of respect. Let's put this in a different context.

Think about it; sex (in one form or another) is used to sell every thing from gum to cars and that seems to be ok with every one. Why get upset when Justin and Janet use it to sell them selves?

I frequent the local gentleman's club, I love my porn, I love sex, and I certainly think the female body is the best thing in the world to look at... but you know what? I am an adult. I have the choice to be able to view women in all their nakedness. A Superbowl halftime show is no place to expose a woman's breast because it forces it on the viewer that is not expecting to see that nor may they want to see that (or their kids for that matter). That's the issue here, not the fact that there was a naked boobie on TV. It's that there was a naked boobie on TV that the viewers were not expecting to see. You know I love tits.

I live in houston.. Houston whines and complains when people *stars* dont come to our huge city.. blah, blah,blah.. But think, whos gonna wanna come down now? If they are making such a big deal of this. I say just let it be, whether it was accidental or not. We made good money off the superbowl. Everyone was happy. Whats gonna happen when the next star comes here and we throw a fit? Heaven help the olympics :\ See, i was thinking. I live in houston..
