    I'm afraid that when non-Americans see the Superbowl winners described as 'world' champions we shake our heads, just as when you have your baseball 'world' series.

    However I am with EL on this one. There should be a mixture of acts, especially if it is trying to increase its appeal worldwide.

    ..I must admit the beginning was a little iffy...."PinBall Wizard" wasn't all that great but I think they redeemed themselves by the time they got to "Won't get fooled again"....as everybody's been saying...they are no longer in their 20's and they certainly haven't been working like the EAGLES have been in the past decade or so....overall, it was a pretty good performance.......

    I definitely have no problems with non-American acts for the Superbowl FreyPower and EagleLady. I always thought it a joke to call the winners of the World Series of Baseball or Superbowl "World Champions".

    I question the World Series of Baseball because Japan has some darn good teams! But in reality, both of those Sports are pretty much "American".

    Kinda like me claiming to be the "World Champion" of aluminum can sculpture. The fact that no one else does it makes no difference....I'm the best in the World at it right now so I'm the Freakin' World Champion! <LOL>

    This is a copy of an eMail I received from The Who Fan Club. Man, they are marketing the crap out of their Superbowl appearance. They seem to be pretty heavy in to marketing....certainly, their Membership into their Fan Club isn't all that cheap!

    You can get to their "Store"
    http://www.fanfire.com/cgi-bin/WebOb...omepage_022010

    Or you can get to their "official" homepage

    http://www.thewho.com/index.php



    The Who rocked their halftime performance at the Super Bowl! Commemorate this epic event and get this t-shirt with artwork from the 'Odds & Sods' album, The Who logo and the Super Bowl logo!



    Great news! This Super Bowl XLIV coffee mug is also available in the official store! Artwork from the classic 'Odds & Sods' album is wrapped around this white coffee mug. Buy yours today!

    I wanted to cry and tell the pot smoking high school kids to "GIVE ME MY DRUMSTICK BACK!" I mean, if he is going to toss a drumstick out to the front of the crowd, do you think he meant for the high high school boys to get it?

    No, he wanted the sweet 9th grade girl to get it.

    I would be honored to get hit in the head by one of Moonie's sticks!

    I caught a drumstick at a Journey concert one time....not even close.
