OT: half-time show idea for opener

Weird Al admits he'd like to do a Super Bowl, but knows it'll never happen. How do you feel about him doing the opener?

Case for him is he has every "pop" style. He can do Nirvana, 50 cent, Madonna, Michael Jackson, whatever. (I know I'm selling him short, he's done Queen and Steve Miller and many more.) Green Day at their best is Green Day. (BTW, his morphing style sort of mimics the Patriots playing style.)

Case against him - he's a comedian.

I was thinking that instead of a musical act, they could play the Pro Bowl at halftime.

Last time (2004-05) we won... IIRC... Toby Keith was singing outside the stadium (walked past, gave wide berth). Green Day performed and was pretty good (setup in the plaza area near the lighthouse). Ozzy was inside a "special helmet" and the lid opened and he sang Crazy Train live as the team ran onto the field. That was awesome!

I think we destroyed the Steelers something like 40-10. Team was really hitting and firing all over the place.

What, no love for New Kids on the the Block? Actually NKOTB might actually be better than Weird Al.

How about they pay big bucks for Macklemore to perform while wearing a Pats jersey to stick it to Seattle?

Also, it's not a halftime show, it's a pregame thing.
