So I happen to have Monday Night Football on in the background while I am browing the “Internets.” I still don’t have wireless (or even high speed for that matter), so I am confined to my office, which does not have a cable-endowed television. Basically, I am in the dark ages here.
At any rate, they don’t actually have a halftime show anymore; rather, they play a music video of sorts right before the start of the second half. Not a real music video, mind you, but a montage of football footage (footballage?) set to music. I believe the music choice is normally Shania Twain or Toby Keith or similar hayseed, but I don’t really know because I rarely watch Monday night football. (I am normally suffering from a Sunday Football Hangover.) But today, the musical interlude was The Donnas. Cool. It was sort of anti-climactic, as The Donnas seem to have Completely Sold Out (TM), but the folks at ABC have successfully exceeded my expectations. I’m sure there’s an ABC intern out there somewhere who deserves a raise for this.
