Unfreakinbelievable!! Just out of curiosity, I checked out www.tvguide.com for FOX's programming guide for February 3, 2008. Here it is:
1. 7:00 a.m. - Super Bowl Sunday FOX News Special
2. 9:00 a.m. - Road to the Super Bowl
3. 10:00 a.m. - Inside the Rings with Troy Aikman
4. 10:30 a.m. - Howie Long's Tough Guys Super Bowl Edition
5. 11:00 a.m. - Super Bowl Sunday Pregame Show
6. 3:00 p.m. - Super Bowl XLII
7. 6:30 p.m. - Super Bowl Postgame Show
8. 7:00 p.m. - To Be Announced
So if I read that correctly, FOX is devoting at least TWELVE (12) hours of programming for a 3 1/2 hour football game. Unbelieveable. I'd give it a couple of years and then the Super Bowl programming will start immediately after the contestants are decided.
The Super Bowl. A football game to determine the champion of professional football for a given year. But in reality, the Super Bowl is really about EVERYTHING but the game. It's about the hype, the media, the commercials, the half-time show, corporate America, you name it. If corporate America could get 50 million Americans to watch television snow for three (3) hours, they would do it in a heartbeat.
