Article on ESPN: "Best moment? Prince by a landslide" Now, all the jocks are on my baby's jock. . . about damn time.
http://sports.espn.go.com...eel/070205 Best moment? Prince by a landslide By Eric Neel Page 2 Why do we watch the Super Bowl? Because we love the ads? Because we care who wins? Because we have money on the line? No, we watch because the Super Bowl, like a swaddled yogi sitting cross-legged on a Tibetan hilltop, the Super Bowl has much to teach us. Here are a handful of things I learned from SB XLI... 1. It's time to revisit "Sign O' The Times." At the start, the rain was something Prince soldiered through, something that proved he was game. By the end, as the crowd echoed his "Purple Rain" howl, I could have sworn it was something he commandeered, ordered up special, like it was a Fantasia and he was a mouse who knew some seriously funky magic. Badass start to finish, second only all-time to U2's searing post-9/11 rendition of "Where The Streets Have No Name" (at Super Bowl XXXVI). | |
