I'd never heard of him until this announcement.

It's safe to say the NFL still has no idea who their fan base is.

Apple Music does. Metallica, for example, doesnt get streams like Bunny in 2025.

Apple Music is paying the bills for this

NFL is a business. And like all businesses their job is to create value for their shareholders. In this instance it would be their owners. They are doing quite well


NFL team valuations have risen significantly, with the Dallas Cowboys valued at $13.0 billion and the LA Rams at $10.5 billion in 2025, according to Forbes and CNBC. The average NFL team is now worth $7.65 billion, an 18% increase from the previous year, and all 32 franchises are valued at least $5.25 billion.

MY favorite current singer:

You mean to tell me you're walking around listening to Kidz Bop 6-year-old singers on repeat?

If it's "reality," post the numbers backing it up

Green Day is a Bay Area band. They have the catalog to play this gig.

I'd bet we wouldn't have the same conservative whining issues if they were chosen although they are very left leaning...

Just look at sports gambling. Nobody cares about 80+ nba games or every nfl game a week. Damn no wonder you live in a fantasy land.

"If it's real then post the numbers backing it up"
"Well...look at gambling"

Lmao that's what I thought, absolutely nothing to back up what you said

My guy, this is what you said. Reading comprehension is at an all-time low

Having a little skin in the game is the only reason many sporting events draw any attention.

Apparently it is. Hope you figure it out but I won’t get my hopes up.

I agree, not much hope for someone who thinks "has sports gambling increased sports viewership" means no one is watching but for gambling. Legalizing it around 2019 didn't impact the NFL's ratings much at all, you have no idea what you're talking about as usual

I googled it. You could pick from a vast number of sources that clearly state gambling has people watching sports that they ordinarily wouldn’t. You don’t have to believe it but then again you think dudes can be chics and a lot of other ridiculous s***.

That does not mean that gambling is the only reason those sports (especially the NFL, lmao) draw any attention. NFL games get ~20M viewers per game, and the vast majority aren't gambling at all. You need to go to the Derek Zoolander Center

Who the hell mentioned total ratings? All I said was that many people only watch because they have some skin in the game. Must go back to that comprehension thing you was talking about.

That is also not what you said. I was joking but you might actually have a reading problem

Most people have to gamble to be interested.

Is he related to Bugs?

To each his/her own I say. Listen to whomever you wish, but he sucks! Just my opinion. AC/DC should get their shot at the halftime show before they all croak, also just my opinion.

I get why Apple Music/NFL chose him. Not my cup of tea but I understand.

I thought Metallica would have made most sense from a TV standpoint. Big enough band, large enough catalog, and from the Bay Area. ...

But Apple wants acts who will get people to stream music. Metallica isnt that in 2026...

 

[Majors]

Is not being anti American too much to ask? Don't think that has anything to do with MAGA

Common sense logic.

Journey
Green Day
Too Short

 

[Orangeslice13]

I can’t think of a single musical preforming act that would get me to watch the Super Bowl.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Journey
Green Day
Too Short

Journey is too far down to be headlining in 2026. If you had Green Day as headliner and you were able to talk Steve Perry to join the stage, then Journey would be fine as a supporting act to Green Day and have them belt out DSB.....

Florida Georgia Line might get picked one year....
