and if the halftime was Kanye West with guests Kid Rock and Ted Nugent, all Trump supporters, and their was talk/rumors that would give their political statements, I doubt you would think that enhances your halftime show experience.


I meant her millions in ticket sales would be enhanced.  I have no desire to watch it regardless of her political beliefs.

No political statement enhances any non-political broadcast.  They are always worse when politics are injected into them.

And yet we play the national anthem before every sporting event and (some of us) rage when we feel someone doesn't show the song due deference. And then there's Pentagon-funded displays of patriotism during games.
So, what you really meant to say was, "They are always worse when politics contrary to mine are injected into them."

Indeed, the National Anthem IS a political statement.

But now we are talking about the half-time show.

What is the definition of a bust in Superbowl ratings?  Is this it?  The game had everything and it still slumped.

Despite overtime finish, NFL Super Bowl draws lower TV ratings

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-nfl-superbowl-ratings-idUSKBN15L1L5

Fox Television's broadcast of Super Bowl LI on Sunday night drew 111.3 million viewers, according to Nielsen data released by the network on Monday, the smallest audience for the National Football League's title game in four years.

The contest included a thrilling finish, with the New England Patriots staging a comeback to defeat the Atlanta Falcons in the National Football league's first-ever Super Bowl overtime. The Patriots returned from a 25-point deficit and quarterback Tom Brady, 39, won his record fifth championship.

The Falcons were in control for much of the game, with a 28-3 lead midway through the third quarter. Viewership surged as the Patriots' pushed the game into overtime, peaking at 117.7 million from 10 p.m. to 10:15 p.m ET (0300-0315 GMT).

Without the Patriots' rally, ratings would've been even worse for Fox, which still posted the least-viewed Super Bowl since 2013, when 108.7 million watched the Baltimore Ravens defeat the San Francisco 49ers.

Lady Gaga's halftime show drew 117.5 million viewers.

Last year's Super Bowl drew a 111.9 million viewers to CBS Corp's CBS, while the Patriots' previous title game appearance in 2015 helped Comcast Corp's NBC television draw 114.4 million viewers, the most-watched TV broadcast in U.S. history.

Internet streaming of Super Bowl is not counted. CBS made the game widely available on tablets, phones, computers and streaming boxes like Apple TV with almost 2,000,000 additional viewers.

Yet, even without counting these millions of fans, it was still the 5th most watched program in TV history - so obviously people are sick of football.

But, keep up the diatribe you have been droning on about all year. Maybe you should go back to the Apple thread to make things up.

If I have the Super Bowl on TV and was streaming it simultaneously (something I've done during the World Series because streaming affords different cameras/angles), am I supposed to be counted as 1 or 2 in the ratings?
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

You don't count, period. :P
