Five artists who should play the Super Bowl halftime show
There is probably some esteem to be gained from being labeled A) a big enough act and B) just inoffensive enough to be tapped as a Super Bowl halftime performer.

We'll Never See A Career Like Shula's Again In The NFL
I had to be reminded that Don Shula coached the Baltimore Colts once upon a time. It started before the Super Bowl era. And his most-known accomplishment there was losing to Joe Namath’s side-burned and overrated ass. And really, Shula’s legacy will be that he was “there.” Much like a baseball seaso...

It’s easy to make jokes at Jared Kushner’s expense, and he truly deserves every last bit of mockery he gets.
