Even though that little boy wasn’t actually Liam I’m glad so many people thought it was because that means they are paying attention to ICE’s crimes

People forget that being a Patriots fan used to be much more like this all the time
Ok we have now entered The Bitter End, also known as the part of the game when it’s clear there is no way but we are obligated to watch silently and complete our ritual suffering as penance

The rest of the world sees us as some dynasty team but this is in fact how we see ourselves as fans
the new england patriots, a long-suffering fan base, with more super bowl losses than any other during my lifetime

It’s that point in the game where mathematically, it is possible despite being highly unlikely

We will all stop breathing now

This is where seasoned New England fans recognize they are trying to kill us.

Rest of the world, you may not realize this, but the majority of Red Sox / New England fans hate ‘Sweet Caroline’.

That was never a thing before the John Henry ownership era

Please stop.

The production value of that halftime show was ASTONISHING
This is the first Super Bowl halftime show I can think of that was made to look actually cinematic and it ruled

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.

Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

I interpreted it differently - the start of the set was in a sugarcane plantation, which was the original purpose for the Puerto Rico colony, and using enslaved labor - the power lines are a reference to PR's failing power grid, which has been experiencing chronic blackouts since hurricane Maria
