Ravens v. Niners Super Bowl Thread

[Monkeydad]

I actually agree that the Super Bowl has gone completely away from being a family event, from the halftime show to the ads. The GoDaddy, Calvin Klein (was that the ripped guy in his briefs that looked like a porn intro?...all completely inappropriate for the viewing audience. I have not watched a halftime show for a decade...we switched it over to "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" for a half hour...and the kids were already in bed. We have no desire to see fake talent flaunting everything but her voice on stage....plus she disgusts me as a person after buying out the hospital wing for herself when other mothers needed it...and then her politics. Any singer who gets involved in politics turns me off....just sing.

But seriously, I do side with FD's sentiment and actual care for what his children see. Just because "it's part of the world now" doesn't mean a child is old enough to see it. Let the kids be kids...there's plenty of time for discovering sex when they're old enough and in a long-term relationship.

It IS sad that parents who care can't sit down and watch a football game with their kids. I'm trying to teach him about football...he's starting baseball this year actually...but I don't need to explain the other explicit crap along with how many points a field goal counts for.
