    I was similarly ticked off by the halftime show during the final. Keep that shit contained to the Super Bowl.

          Yeah we do it in Australia as well and it’s generally b grade entertainment.

          We’re actually truly embarrassing at it.

          I swear a good number of American sports fans don’t actually like their sports. Everything I hear that’s “good” about the Super Bowl is external and not the actual game

            Baseball fans are pretty ride or die. I think it’s the necessary induction into the sport due to the arcane nature of it, similar to cricket fans.

                    It’s okay, not everyone can get into a sport beyond just watching it casually. 😉 When you live and breathe the sport, you’ll understand lol.
