    And now, to bring us all down after this Super Bowl...

    this column from Dave Zirin.

    Call this a comment on New Orleans post-Katrina, if you wish.

    The Super Bowl's thirty-four-minute blackout was a moment that says so much about the USA in the twenty-first century.
    John Hemingway(facing certain death): I want to see Buffalo win the Super Bowl.
    David Coltrane(threatening John): Nobody's going to live that long, pal.

    Beyonce finsihed her act and the roadies killed the lights on the way out. The show was over.

      Beyonce's dance recital and light show sucked the life out of me and the electricity from the greater NOLA area. The NFL should just get a marching band and do a regular 12 minute long halftime during the Super Bowl like they do during the regular season.
      Remember Kevin Everett in your thoughts.
