Thank you for making CBS your number 1 source for news

"IT'S ALMOST TIME FOR THE PEPSI SUPER BOWL HALFTIME SHOW" .... every couple minutes since game start. lol

FEATURING SPECIAL GUEST AEROSMITH

Bruno Mars was awesome!

I think I speak for everyone when I say I'd rather hear your sister than Phil Simms.

Be proud

As a Seahawks fan, I don't see anything wrong with that sentence.

Glad I'm not the only one who can hear it, hope someone shuts him up.

Wooooooooo

Im going to murder him

Ric Flair superbowl takeover?

Are you hearing this guy too? I'm fucking going crazy here.

Woo dat!?

What's really going on...

Wooooo! Woooooo! Wooooooooooo!

5.1 surround system makes the woos so loud. It's all I can hear

Thought it was distant sirens for the longest time.

"WOOOOOO!"

-WOO guy

I feel really fortunate that I haven't noticed him at all yet.

God dammit Killa

Dammit I thought Ric Flair walked in.

Woowoozela

3rd quarter: "YOU MISSED THE CBS HALFTIME SHOW. LUCKILY WELL REAIR IT AFTER THIS QUARTER."

Don't you mean the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime Show?

3rd Quarter WE ARE JUST MOMENTS REMOVED FROM THE PEPSI HALFTIME SHOW

Coming up: the 9th minute since the Half Time Show!

Ya they will be "Missed the half time show? It's on demand now at CBS.com!"

They've been relentless.

Thank the fucking gods.

All I hear is WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

All that money and they couldn't hire a proper audio engineer...

Can I blame CBS for this? I want to

No kidding, how is this type of thing overlooked?

Not quite as bad as the Black Eyed Peas, but damn close.

Just crank the cymbals up, Johnny. You can never have too much of them.

I vote Jon Gruden and Jon Gruden

I vote shaq and Chuck. Even if they don't know football

It'd be cool if they had each team's local radio announcer

[deleted]

John Scott would be voted in easily.

Don and Jerry.

I vote Morgan Freeman.

I vote Gilbert Gottfried and Ray Romano.

I vote Key & Peele!

Key and Peele obviously...

Jon Grudden and John Madden

Like the NYE ball drop...gimme Wiz Khalifa popping champagne and doing whatever the fuck he wants. Millions would watch Snoop announcing the Super Bowl over Phil Simms.

Shit, I'd rather Stephen Hawking robo-talk the whole damn game. At least his jokes would likely be funny.

I want to say fuck Phil Simms but we've won pretty much all of our games with him.

I'll take one Nantz and Collinsworth, please

Look, I love left shark a such as the next guy, but I don't want him to be an announcer

I vote Stone Cold Steve Austin.

I loved colinsworth in the AZ game, it added so much excitement

"I voted for Phil Simms" - nobody, ever

Too bad they can't just use the radio guys. Kevin Harlan is legit.

Can I just vote for "Not Phil Simms"?

Lmao

Oh good it's evolving

NOT EVEN THE GIFS ARE SAFE!!!!!!!!

WOOO^{OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!}

Plus paradise and that song that CBS played 30 times in the first half

And it's the first song lol

Holy shit you called it

You called it

[removed]

Welp

Time for a concussion test

thought it was a joke when first reported, if true he could have a concussion

DWare is a man not to be messed with

He's shook

Time for concussion protocol

I'm really looking forward to the Coca Cola Super Bowl Halftime Show with Creed and special guests Beach Boys and Bruce Springsteen.

Lol they literally just said it again.

This upvote brought to you by the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime show with Coldplay and special guests Beyonce and Bruno Mars

Did you enjoy the Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime show with Coldplay and special guests Beyonce and Bruno Mars?

I hate how they make half time a shitty spectical. The half should not be changed this drastically. It changes the game.

Pepsi Super Bowl Halftime show with Coldplay and special guests Beyonce and Bruno Mars

It's Chris Collinsworth though

Jesus Christ, I'm listening to the game while I work and I can't even tell if I'm listening to football half the time..

Woooooooooo

Aye

Aye, always

I'm in Mexico for work, this has been the most enjoyable super bowl ever so far. The Mexican announcers are far superior to the usual CBS bullshit.

AYe

But then we couldn't watch then suck their own dicks every commercial break

Woooooooooooo

Woooooo

I think it would be ok, as long as they muted the announcers.

Ayyyyyyye

Watch the BBC stream via a proxy it's on iPlayer. Cuts to the BBC commentators during the ad breaks for analysis but uses CBS for the play by play.

They're streaming it for free in HD for all us plebs. I'll live with whatever shit they want to shovel at us to be able to watch it.

Why do you say that?

No. Theyre streaming it.

My online stream quality was suffering pretty fiercely. I went downstairs and the cable quality wasn't much better.

Edit: Aye.

And my axe.

Better than FOX and Joe Buck...

There has been a very noticeable lack of dancing and smiling this half.

Not even his dabest of dabs can raise his morale now.

I would to if von Miller was coming after me

[deleted]

He had the exact same look my Dachshund gets when she knows she did something bad.

He looked so happy starting the game then...

Seriously, this guy usually has the spirit of a beautiful horse running through the vast paths of Carolina.

Is he hurt or just under pressure? He looks like he's hurt

He should. He's never seen a defense like this.

That's what happens when you get told you're the best for 2 weeks leading up to it.

He don't look like he's enjoying himself.

Lot of speculation that he's playing hurt.

He looks like a tenth-runner up for MVP.

Haven't seen him this butthurt since the second Falcons game

I miss that guy. Wonder if this year will have any moments that will live up to the left shark glory.

im glad they televised the halftime show even though the sb was cancelled last year. really made up for it.

thing i made last year

when did you see that?

Did it work? Are you a scientologist now?

I seent it. Only one that saw at my party. No one believed me.

wait what? I missed that.

They have awesome ads, very deliberate, then you see what it's for and interest disappears

I missed that, really? WTF?

I just saw that. WTF??

Huh? Was that a local ad, or did I have too much queso dip again...

I missed a fucking Scientology commercial?

No he's busy recording his new album

Kendrick comes out and plays king kunta I and swimming pools. Would be fucking crazy but it would never happen.

I want to see a gaudy display of insanity... So maybe the Flaming Lips take over?

Why Bruno again tho. He was good but AGAIN?

I love the smell of new threads in the morning. It smells like...dank memes.

Sung to the tune of "chicken parm you taste so good" music 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶

What MVP has a video source for this

And I'm contributing. What an honor!

https://youtu.be/wcdqIwHFV7M

I wonder if that was before the MJ super bowl.

He made America great.

Who will the super secret guest be?

The hero we need.

tambourine guy took over

Would've been the highlight

Little kids like throwing 50 yard bombs every play and don't think defense should be able to hit.

Love the D

Way more entertaining than the last time the Broncos were in the Super Bowl for sure.

Seriously, at half the O put up 13 points total.

I'm gripped. It's 1:30 am here but I'm going nowhere.

the Ds are touching

Las vegas and every other booky is losing their fucking mind

It's been entertaining as fuck

I played a madden today where I was the Broncos playing the Panthers. Final score was 86-6. Peyton had 8 passing tds and 2 rushing tds.

I'm with you, man. I thought Denver were going to make this a boring game but these two defenses are playing hard and tearing it up. Wicked to watch and unusual for today's games. Love it.

I hate every single God damn pretentious fucking cocksucking lazy fat sack of shit who acts high and mighty about how they don't like or play sports.

Find out whatever they're into and be condescending about that.

Lol what did they do with their Sunday that was so much better? Ask them, and if it's not Threeway with Gisele and Tom, concuss them.

Lets all say a prayer for expats who have to work in a office full of smug Englishmen tomorrow.

Its not a bad podcast your coworkers should really listen to them atleast once.

Relevant link

Screenshot for the lazy.

...you work with the rest of Reddit?

I know those feels.

"i hear there's an important episode of football on tonight"

yeah it's gonna be a waste of lighting and pyrotechnics

Yeah. Honestly ruined the show.

That means no cool lighting effects during the halftime show.

The last time Beyonce played a Super Bowl Halftime show, though, all the lights died early in the 3rd quarter.

It felt more like a dress rehearsal than a performance.

Agreed. Halftime looked like shit every time they panned out even a little bit

I thought the same damn thing. The halftime show needs to be dark!

It's the first time since 2003 when they played in SD. All others have been in domes or in the central/eastern time zone.

Lol its fucking 9pm on the east coast

It's the mixing. He usually has his microphone really loud.

I'm curious as to how the technician still fucked up after the dozens of rehearsals.

It's hard to hear.

Lol.

We call that a "Hot Goodell"

Super Bowl, Super Bowl, Super Bowl. Tell my mom I love her.

Well lets see Super Bowl Super Bowl Super Bowl

Now we wait.

nfl nfl nfl nf

Super bowl

Super bowl

Super bowl

Super Bowl. Super Bowl. Super Bowl.

Superb Owl

Super Bowl, Super Bowl, Super Bowl

According to the last couple threads, yeah.

I think you'll get wooot till death

And in NYC we got a commercial with Eli Manning talking with a robotic fortune teller about a Toyota Rav 4

upload that! would love to see.

I hope that gets posted later

Winningest

That's because they aren't lipsyncing like normal

People just want to feel special because they hate a popular band

it's so inoffensive I find it offensive

They're very "happy-go-lucky life is beautiful" compared to what they first put it it seems very disingenuous.

It's so bland it loops back around to being actively bad.

"The super bowl is in San Fran this year, we need to make it as gay as possible" "I got it, let's hire Coldplay and have them backed by a rainbow band." "Not gay enough" "The crowd can spell out loving messages in pink and yellow?" "You're a genius"

Well they aren't very good.

[deleted]

Knives

Seriously... I love Coldplay and I love these songs, but the quality is atrocious.

Right?! First thought, "Too bad I can't hear him singing."

Left shark should become a Super Bowl halftime tradition.

Welp

No Chris Martin wants to be able to keep masturbating to himself onstage

They've already failed as a band.

That's not saying much.

My drunken karaoke shenanigans in Koreatown are better that the Black Eyed Peas bullshit.

Remember the poor Red Hot Chili Peppers?

These are adult human beings. That's great.

Including the cost of the tickets? Approximately $340,000. Shoving nachos in the face of some 48 y/o wearing a Cam jersey? Priceless.

I need an update dammit!

Entirely possible

Still a better love story than Twilight.

Dat Beyoncé ass

There were no Katy Perry tits when Katy Perry performed either

Holy shit well memed.

But what about Beyonces rockin thighs?

That new Beyonce is fire tho

Seriously, whose tits am I supposed to stare at now?

It was actually pretty good if you don't count the bits involving Chris Martin

It deserved representation.

He isn't doing too bad of a job though.

It's great, right?

Bruno Mars, however...

We got that in Norfolk too. Which I don't think is the same market

I didn't know Michael and son was doing superbowl money well. Good for them.

Baltimore too

I think this is the first actually live show in a few years and honestly, it's a pretty strong argument for lip synching.

OMG, PLEASE!

Saying what we are all thinking. I like it.

Does anyone really like Coldplay? It really boggles my mind.

Thank you! I couldn't hear shit, and that poor band was not audible.

I thought the same thing... you could barely hear anybody.

The synch was so off it was painful.

It has been the whole game.

It was. Wtf

Nah man, he's smarter than all of us. Dvr's it then starts watching it an hour or so in.

Will this ever die

In case anyone missed this. http://i.imgur.com/AWrzYvy.jpg

-/u/awildsketchappeared

No ;)

That and the Toyota commercial doe.

Wow nice play

This is one of the first times I've ever laughed out loud at this stupid wonderful meme.

https://i.imgur.com/ELIrAze.jpg

Cruz likes the outcome so far.

Link's purple. Nice try though.

Oooooooow.

Bradley cooper's character gave him the magical no side effects serum in secret. Otherwise you die from taking the drug.

Fyi

Spoilers....

....he's getting a shot from Bradley Cooper that keeps the side effect of sickness and death at bay.

The FBI in the show is unaware of the shot. It's a secret.

asking the hard hitting questions.. lol

This is why you can't watch the show with your friends.

The only reason I can think of is he has like a secret stash of them or something.

While I haven't seen the show, in the movie if you stopped taking the pill you'd start to get really sick and it would basically slowly kill you.

Maybe they still have that in the show and don't want to get someone hooked on it?

Cause the pills kill you. He's the only one they know of that it doesn't kill, cause he has access (through bradley cooper's character) to the drug that reverses its damaging effects. They just think he's got some weird genetic immunity.

Its because the pill has extremely nasty side-effects, and the protagonist of the show somehow has complete immunity to them.

They think he's immune to the side effects. It's explained in the 1st episode.

I have been wondering the same thing, but not enough to watch it.

"oh of course they only picked pop artists to play"

"they are just not a good live band"

"you can totally tell they are lip syncing/ not actually playing"

"wow they fell a little flat at that high note in the end"

Jokes on you I don't have any friends! HA!

Yes. I missed him too.

Thank you

I'm gonna get hit by this 37 times before the game is over

This is better than the image itself.

Fucking solid.

http://i.imgur.com/S3hoXPB.jpg

A wild peyton appears!

Why does he wear the mask!?

you twatsicle

That's quite a protruding overbite right there.

You can't disguise the forehead.

my father in law just made the same joke. how many kids do you have?

inb4 cottoneyed joe dance remix

I enjoyed Missy Elliotts cameo alone than this entire halftime show.

Keep your eyes on the road.

Upvote this man.

There it is

Thank you for this.

Dat booty

The one on the far left is having trouble popping it. Kinda like Bernie last night.

.

It's actually 5:30 (Pacific).

That was the only thing I didn't like about Michael Jackson's halftime performance at the Rose Bowl

SuperBowl 50 Half Time Show (or what it sounds like listening to a song outside of a car as it drives by.)

Not enough dead kids

No matter how much people give coldplay shit, everybody secretly likes at least one of their songs. Black eyed peas are just the straight up worst

superbowl ended the black eyed peas

Low bar...but true.

They had Slash to somewhat redeem the show. Both the guests in this halftime show previously headlined super bowls, which is bullshit. Get someone new

AMERICAS #1 NEW DRAMA

Whooooo!

Ric Flair? Unlikely. Though he is from Carolina...

I see you

I saw.

I seent it. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I see it. I see you.

WITNESSED

Tee hee hee

I see you. I know.

Busted

I'm inspired.

Upote for your honesty.

How was it?

I see you

Don't worry, we'll all be with you in spirit.

God's speed.

I see you bruh

We must upvote. For science.

This is why Weird Al should be allowed to do the Super Bowl. He would be entertaining as fuck for 15 minutes without all the gimmicks and then move out of the way for more football.

Bruno Mars did fine, hope he'll spice this up.

There has been shit audio at every superbowl halftime show

Believe in self-love

If you don't have an SO then it's not Valentine's day.

It becomes singles' awareness day

Aren't we all? :)

bing is your friend.

They couldn't handle the heat from last time

You could say it's like the superbowl of threads for the mods

or at least in a dome where you can turn the lights off

Broncos win: Von Miller

Panthers win: Luke Kuechly

I agree

they got me hyped and then let down.

What the blue hell? What market is that in? Or was I just not paying attention?

NoMoreScientology.org

Kind of sums up my feelings about this halftime show.

We out here lit

scary

would be nice

I'm holding out hope for homecoming

ayyyyyyyyy

I read it, I like that ideA

I'll upvote you because I agree the rule needs changed

I'm sorry, but that's horrible. The nfl would love more commercials tho.

I saw it <3

Sounds good to me

I get it but how many one yard challenges do you think you'll see?

These are the the rules that are used in cricket. Depending on the game teams have either 1 or 2 unsuccessful challenges but unlimited successful challenges. It works well.

I think More than one person saw it

Or even "call stands" doesn't count for or against the two challenge number

A traveler saw this young man.

Make sure you bring that up in the next owners meeting.

Yeah or refs can not suck... But that'll never happen.

Cmon bruh she wasn't a drug addict then just a stone cold singing killer.

I've been at it since day one

Nearer my memes to thee....

http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/641/365/e1b.gif

I rematches that this morning for the hell of it. So much better than this hunk of shit.

Please don't do this. I'm eating.

Beyonce to sue Jed York after tearing her ACL on the Levi's turf.

RIP Bae's MCL

noticed that too.

here's hopeing for left shark

THIS. Then at least the HT show would be good for something.

AKA not even playing

he even did it when the music track cut out to nothing, he was still smashin away.

It would have looked good if it was dark outside.

To quote Eric Cartman: It was hella lame.

Yes, we expected something different from a Super Bowl hosted in San Francisco.

I agree. Coldplay was alright but they kept changing performers that it was hard to stay interesting.

How funny would it be seeing Matt fuck everything up because they'd be forced to use pre recorded audio.

Feat. Weird Al

You win.

Why you gotta get my hopes up like that

That's just one take of Black Magic Woman

i just said the same thing, needs a nice light show

for some reason it looks a lot worse during the day

It's been night for two hours here in Auburn. This just seems weird.

Can agree with the night part. SB halftime show with sunlight doesn't seem right.

Thom Yorke dancing across the stage like

The most melancholy half time ever.

tips fedora

Can the Smashing Pumpkins come? They hate each other, but just imagine it.

She just did

Yeah everybody needs to quit bitching

Well it's not night, so deal with it.

That's what I was saying. It was just so dull and felt like it had no substance. Nowhere near Katy perry or Bruno Mars (solo) level.

I just cannot compare that to the likes of the stones, Micheal Jackson, others.

Dull

We didn't

I liked it, most people don't.

I liked it.

Some people liked it, others are saying it's historically bad

Hivemind opinion doesn't really matter, but if you want to know wait a day or so and see which opinion gets upvoted more.

All I know is my heart says "Maybe."

Some liked it some didn't, you won't be able to tell by watching the new comments, wait till the post game thread

Are you wearing khakis Jake?

There was one? Wasn't paying attention.

That was quick.

Shoutout to the Brazzers Halftime show?

This'll do unzips pants

Bruno Mars did it for ya then?

I enjoyed it a lot.

Not much a fan of halftime shows. I liked the little retrospective near the end though.

It was good. A lot of people just hate Cold Play. I mean I'm not huge fan of them but I don't write them off as a bad group.

That was pretty bad. I mean, compared to last year, that was garbage.

Rick Astley is a hell of a singer. I wouldn't mind that.

A super bowl rickroll... I can dig it

:)

At least we got a black magic woman..

Mom with the call of the night

It's cool to hate super bowl halftime shows.

I didn't like the Coldplay part (and I actually do like Coldplay). Bruno vs Queen B was good though.

Seriously, what else do you want? I thought it was great...

Same bud. It's rough.

Nah, he's in the stands this year. Wooing.

I hope that's up on YouTube tomorrow, I wanna see what they did

I so hope that goes on youtube to watch later

Sour grapes

How so?

Bruno and Beyonce halftime shows forever.

Don't forget the Woooooooooo guy.

It's pretty late here...

I was too busy beating my wife to catch it.

if you need a commercial to remind you not to beat your significant other, i don't think the commercial is gonna help a week from then lmao that commercial was so dumb

Looks so bad.

Me too. "And then they put on that fucking dark domestic violence commercial. Jesus christ can't I just enjoy my game? We all get it NFL - don't hit your lady. "

Might not mention it with the whole anthony cumia thing going on

Who?

Just a wee bit.

What do you have against tall jokes?

and they stab Coldplay.

nope its Bruno Mars and Beyonce

As the Broncos' kick return unit.

BAH GAWD, THAT'S SCOTT FUJITA'S MUSIC

i have to vent my cynicism or the asshole inside me doesn't like it.

It's like spiritual farting.

Innit bruv?

it was already dead

It's almost like the NFL has to make a middle of the road show just to not piss everyone off let alone please them. I thought it was solid all things considered.

scientology? I'm watching a skyline chili commercial

I think you saw a local commercial

my man

Longest half time show in history.

It would be the first halftime show I ever looked forward to or watched.

Only if Payton can sneak in a Nationwide jingle somewhere.

No joke! Sign him and Bruno Mars up for next year!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yup

It was really bad, man. Hahah. Good win.

They're the true underdogs here.

I'm rooting for the horn section of Bruno Mars

Even with b&bm i don't understand Coldplay has anything to do with America or the superbowl.

Coldplay sucks ass.

I was thinking the same thing. My girlfriend and I just let out a collective sigh.

My buddy just asked the same thing. Might have been.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyNh1j3dsp8

Puppy monkey baby was.

I was... in a super bowl XXIV Loss.. Great foreshadowing for my life

1980, Pittsburgh, probably.

Nah

checks flair

I don't think I was

You can say shit on network tv

No, the line is "this here is that ice cold."

The official lyric is "this hit"

ass shake

FTFY

Any of the shitty local cover bands is better than the black eyed peas.

Motherfucking god, yes! Anything is better than those no talent, plagiarizing half-wits.

They are the most Superbowl band I could ever think of. They span 25 years, play very radio friendly rock, and they're super popular.

I don't get how they've never been asked to do it.

Every year bud, every year.

Those are the questions you ask before you say yes.

I don't think I'd want my young kids to watch beyonce dance either, and I'm non-religious

Should've just stayed home.

You didn't miss anything. Trust me.

Sometimes I fucking hate being in a Mormon family.

When are the times that you don't?

I don't know what you expected

lead entertainment

?

Goldblum, uhh, finds a way.

King of cable.

phrasing?

You should report it.

It has really gnarly side effects like butt cramps.

Because he is immune to side effects because he has a way to get the shot for side effects...I don't want to spoil it for you. You should watch, it's a great show.

Why not give the ant-man suit to a Navy Seal instead of a sarcastic screw up? Why not put Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in a Mad Max cage match? We will never have these answers...

He got given a drug that makes him immune to the side effects that the fbi doesn't know about.

British

People who dont watch football

all of them.

Everyone alive

'Gay't to twelve.

Sick reference bro.

Those shoes were the polar opposite of stilettos........

Totally. Michael and Sons bringing the heat.

People watching NFL complaining about the mainstream lol

I'd much rather see Bieber at this point.

exactly. Why would the NFL have a halftime performance that only caters to 10% of the viewers?

I liked it

I loved it.

Yeah what the hell. That was pretty solid. Despite the fact it looked like they were performing at a hippy commune I thought all three artists sounded good.

same

I liked it. People on here are only looking for reasons to be sandy.

Performance wise? Not awful. Sound quality? Pretty awful.

No that was amazing. The callbacks to U2 and Prince were so good

The whole show was great

I thought it was good as well

I liked the Bruno/Beyonce part, and I usually don't care for Superbowl halftime shows

I liked everything but the beyonce solo bit.

But the audio quality

It does lol

That Fucking terrified me

Couldn't be worse than Trump.

Does he have a birth certificate though?

Acid trip realized in a Mountain Dew commercial

Pls

That'd be legendary

That would be fucking amazing

I'm drunk, have an up vote

Flair checks out

wanna bet?

That's only okay when we do it!!!

although i think i was expecting one of those inspirational feels commercials. i think the local press hyped the commercial up too much.
