I want the New England Patriots to win.

[DLibrasnow]

I want the Philadelphia Eagles to win simply because New England has won so many Superbowls lately.

Having said that I think that the Patriots will actually win.

[Johnboy007]

Eagles all the way!

[Qwerty]

Eagles.

[Taro Todoroki]

Pats in a close one.

[Qwerty]

So far, I think Pats may take this one. Pretty much gut reaction at the moment.

[Johnboy007]

Eagles are playing well.

Gotta get the defense under control though.

[Johnboy007]

Macca was excellent!

Live and Let Die was pretty spectacular.

[Taro Todoroki]

Yes! Paul rocks!

[Righty007]

Macca was excellent! 

Live and Let Die was pretty spectacular.

I agree!

[Qwerty]

That halftime show kicked . McCartney Rules.

[Righty007]

THE PATRIOTS ARE WINNING, 21-14!

[Qwerty]

At least I win a small bet at home if that continues...

[Janus Assassin]

Small party was ok... mother was home so no beer or many hot girls were over GO EAGLES.. they are losing 24-14 now though

[Qwerty]

It's over.

There was only one reason I tuned in tonight and that was for the halftime show. I was very surprised at the audio separation that was achieved considering there were a ton of screaming people crammed into a football stadium. It sounded as if it were recorded in a studio!

I will say that Paul's voice was a bit rough tonight and he was clearly rushed through everything as he usually plays with the audience and is a little more theatrical with his performances.

At any rate, he's still able to rock at 62. I'm very excited for his North American tour that's coming later this year as well as the new album. I'm really hoping he plays the track he recorded last year, "Whole Life", on this tour as I think it's probably my favorite Paul rock song since the 70's. The rough sound of his voice is perfect for it.

Anyway, some pictures for everyone.

McCartney was great!

I've seen and heard several broadcasts (32 year's worth, actually) of Paul McCartney performing his smash hit single Live And Let Die to live audiences. What amazes me is how similar they all sound. Nothing wrong with that, it's a great song. And I was pleased that he included it in his four-song set during the halftime show of Super Bowl XXXIX. In fact, he played the whole song. I'm not sure the songs were performed in their entirety.

As with each live performance of the Academy Award-nominated single, there were pyrotechnics involved.

And so here we are in early 2005. Days ago Eon Productions confirmed they're finally adapting Casino Royale, a novel written over fifty years ago. Plus what is probably the biggest sports event in the United States features a musical number from a film produced over thirty years ago.

James Bond remains a cultural entertainment phenomenon.

Did he get his nipple out?

Hey, excellent pics Jordan! That was a very memorable and terrific performance.

[Qwerty]

There are some pictures from the performance Donovan in the Superbowl thread if interested. It was a great show.

[hrabb04]

Terrific song, horrible movie.

[Bon-san]

I honestly don't think I've ever heard LALD referred to as "horrible" before.

It's in my top 10 or 11, but what do I know.

[Johnboy007]

Disappointed in Donovan McNabb. Does that sort of thing way too often for the Eagles to be great.

Still, they took it to the Pats, and proved a lot of the "genius" football analysts dead wrong.

T.O. got the last laugh in the end.

There's always next years *mutters expletives under breath*

McCartney's halftime show was what a halftime show should be -- good music and a good atmosphere by a solid performer. I enjoyed every second of it. The problem in years past is they wanted to be hip and edgy by presenting several performers, often from different musical genres, singing abbreviated songs and it just didn't work.

As for the game, Philadelphia was playing to lose, apparently. How can a team playing for the world championship walk back to the line of scrimmage? New England could have been beaten, but proved stronger where and when it counted.

[mra]I was just disappointed that we didn

[Tarl_Cabot]

Good game, great team, congrats Pats. They didn't really play very well but the Eagles snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. T.O. was impressive though...they have a great chance to make it next year and lose to the Chargers!

[The Dove]

Now you see why I'm both a Broncos and Patriots fan Tarl!! lol Yay!! a new dynasty is born!! Its been a great year for those New England area fans, with both the Red Sox winning the World Series and the Pats clinching their third Super Bowl in 4 years!!

I, too, was highly impressed by the quality of the audio. It was also a slight bummer that time constraints put the kabosh on the customary banter with the audience.

Overall, this was the most enjoyment I've ever found in a Super Bowl halftime show. I was hoping he'd finish with "Let It Be", but "Hey Jude" is always nice, as well.
